I missed you... I needed to take care of some things in my life that would enable me to move forward, with that done...a new life begins. Today my little Prince celebrated his 1st birthday. He had the biggest birthday party I've ever seen for a 1 y
I caught a rerun of the Sesame Street Quickfire Challenge on Top Chef All-stars last night, and stayed up later than we intended to watch it. The muppets were of course, very cute and funny, but what really enjoyed was watching the chefs' reactions to th

One of my weaknesses is a good, chewy chocolate chip cookie. It s like my kryptonite. I m not proud of it, but I m pretty much defenseless around them, which is why I don t make chocolate chip cookies very often. Recently, though, I was thumbing through t
It's christmas and that means baking your fool head off, no? And everybody expects something a little different from those of us who talk of nothing but food day in and day out. They want chocolate chip cookies from their grandmother but they want matcha

Dear Chocolate Bunny, Your appeal is undeniable. No question about it. You've shown up faithfully, year after year, in Easter baskets across the continent. Though your crinkly pastel foil is often askew, you'll always be a snappy dresser in our eyes.
