Another Pampered Chef Success
November 9, 2011

Meatloaf is something I very rarely make – by rarely I mean twice in my life – and I have no explanation for this. Seriously, why don’t I make meatloaf more often? The last time I made meatloaf was when I made chicken loaf. I’ve finally realized that this kind of dish is incredibly versatile, [...]

Heart of Darkness Brownies
May 18, 2010

Some days you just feel like your body can’t continue to hold and support all the day’s worries, late lunches, mistakes, and over-all fatigue. All you really want to do after work is curl up on the couch and watch re-runs of Family Guy. A few days ago at work, I volunteered to bake brownies [...]

Lumpy Cookies
October 28, 2009

I’ve been in a cookie-making mood the last two weeks – probably because they’re easy to make and I love using my Huckle Cat cookie jar. Inspired by the Everything But The Kitchen Sink Cookies from Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey: Desserts for the Serious Sweet Tooth, I decided to make my own variation of these [...]

Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies
October 21, 2009

To me, dipping a tablespoon into a jar of Nutella and licking the gooey, chocolately, hazelnutty spread is absolute heaven. Don’t judge. I know there are others like me. Tons. It’s with this love of Nutella that I eagerly baked a batch of chocolate hazelnut cookies, filled with none other than Nutella. God I love [...]

Chocolate Chip and Cinnamon Cookies
October 16, 2009

Not too long ago I acquired yet another baking book. It’s called 1 dough, 100 cookies by Linda Doeser. I hadn’t baked any of the cookies in the book until today because I couldn’t make up my mind on which recipe to try. I figured chocolate chip cookies with cinnamon would be a safe and [...]

Hunter Style Chicken aka Chicken Cacciatore
September 15, 2009

I’ve started a distance learning program on writing. There are five classes in total and the official start date for these classes was on Friday. Because I decided to scamper off to a noisy campsite – Oastler Lake, a CN train goes by every couple hours even throughout the night – over the weekend, I [...]

Uber Moist Chocolate Zucchini Cake
September 4, 2009

I was browsing through TasteSpotting’s food porn the other day and I came across a picture of chocolate zucchini cake. I’d never made cake or bread with zucchini before and I was curious so I clicked on the photo owner’s blog link. I was happy to find the recipe (here) and I made a decision [...]

White and Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies
August 14, 2009

Maybe the dream described in my previous post had something to do with the party I’m going to tonight. I offered to make cookies for said party and I have just finished making them, 6 hours before the event is to take place. In real life, it seems, I’m on schedule! I love making chocolate [...]
