S'mores Cookie Bars

Some food speaks just speaks for itself and does not require a flowery description. Sometimes I just don't feel like writing anything.

Tuesdays with Dorie: Rum-Drenched Vanilla Cakes

"Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me."

When I finally have a dog, I'm going whistle that tune when I'm calling him in for dinner or play time.

Tuesdays with Dorie: Dressy Chocolate Loaf Cake

Does anyone know what NVIDIA graphic drivers are? I didn't. But apparently when they stop working, your computer will crash in the middle of a beautiful, sunny day while you are uploading all your camera's food photos. Good times.

Black & White Peanut Butter Brownies

To all the dads out there, and to those who are not longer with us, Happy Father's Day! My dad was French, so when we moved here it took him a while to grasp the concept of having an entire day, aside from his birthday, dedicated to him.

Tuesdays with Dorie: Raisin Swirl Bread w/o Raisins

Slowly, very slowly, I'm beginning to feel more comfortable working with yeast. I'm not quite there yet, but at least no inanimate objects were harmed during this recipe. I can't stand it when a recipe fails and most of the failures I've had have involved yeast (as well as a stubborn refusal to read through a recipe before diving in.)

Raspberry Almond Bars

It doesn't matter if it's from an extract or from the actual nut itself, I find the flavour of almonds irrevocably irresistible.

Tuesdays with Dorie: Tender Shortcakes

I truly ♥ this weeks Tuesdays with Dorie recipe. During the warm months of late Spring and early Summer, Shortcake is one of my favourite simple pleasures. As well as sleeping on clean cotton sheets with freshly shaven legs.

Neiman Marcus Chocolate Chip Cookies

I was practically forced into making these cookies. Maybe 'forced' is too strong a word. It was my intention to make chocolate chip cookies but my whisk was aimed at a Levian recipe.

Tuesdays with Dorie: White Chocolate Brownies with Raspberry Coulis

Eyes-Only, the term Brownie is merely an alias. The elegant taste and crumbly texture of these bars are closer to that of a cake.
