Soda Bread

16.03.2009 Baked

Yesterday in between segments on the television about who would be slotted into which bracket of this year’s NCAA tournament and my husband’s less than thrilled reaction at the spread being focused on mega conference teams, I decided to make soda bread.  I’d spotted the recipe a few weeks ago and turned down the page [...]

Chocolate Mousse

29.12.2008 Chocolate

It figures that after a rather extended break from blogging for the holidays, I’d surface to confess that for the first time since joining the Daring Bakers 18 challenges ago, I decided not to participate in the bake fest this month.

Spiced Sugar Cookies

09.12.2008 Baked

  I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date.  No time to say "hello," "goodbye," I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late…and if I could find my head, I'd scratch it and say that, sure.  I feel a bit like Alice in Wonderland, sitting here in a house shrouded in plastic.  I left [...]
