General Tso’s Chicken (Sun-Bird)

Do you get in a cooking rut? Ohhh, I totally do sometimes. Being a lover of all food, I would love to cook exotic food and try new things every night. However, if I tried to pull that, my family would starve and possibly disown me. But I do try to “Break the Routine” every […]

September 20th 2011 Ohhh no you don’t. Don’t you dare look at me like that. You can blame my sister for this one. She is the one who told me about these little nuggets of pure chocolate and caramel crack rock. Poor mans turtles I call these. I love me some Turtle candies. After I […]

Mixed Berry Tart

September 14, 2011 It’s not officially fall yet, so I am still allowed to post a yummy summer dessert. But hurry because berry season is almost out the window.

Cupcakes for TWO and a giveaway

September 12, 2011 Cupcakes for two. Seriously? I know, I know, probably not a good recipe to have on hand. The fact that I can whip up 2 cupcakes in 20 minutes is a pretty dangerous situation for me. Well, I suppose I can be positive and think, “At least I don’t have 24 cupcakes […]

Also, feel that your garbage disposal blades are getting dull? […]

New York Crumb Cake

August 25, 2011 I made lots and lots and lots of this crumb cake when I worked at the bakery. Might not be the best photo, but it was taken in the horrid florescent light at the bakery. It sold out every time I made it. So you know it must be good. The bakery […]

Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal

August 22, 2011 Oh yeah, fall is in the air. Pfffttt, yeah right..not here in Tampa. It won’t feel like fall, well until about February, when it starts to get “cold”. But I am seeing pumpkin pop up everywhere on the net, so I thought I would jump on the band wagon. I am an […]
