Desserts

I made an apple pie yesterday. It was probably the biggest and best apple pie I ever made. My intention was to simply use up some apples, but when it came time to choose a recipe, I went for the gold. I really did. This apple pie is like none other I’ve ever made and […]

Well, I tackled my first apple based recipe yesterday and boy was it delicious. Not that I ate the whole thing. I enjoyed just one piece and I have to tell you, it was out of this world. So good. I haven’t eaten a dessert like this in such a long time. The cake was […]

This is one of those recipes where you’ll look at the picture in the book and tell yourself that you’ll never be able to pull it off. And then, you read through things a bit and come to the conclusion that you might be able to pull it off. Finally, half way through the actual […]

I’ve decided that desserts need a bit more respect around here. With all the different types of fruit beginning to ripen in my area, perhaps one dessert recipe per week should be in order.

This is one of those posts that many, many people around the world look for, but not many food bloggers take the time to write. It’s for a part of a recipe, not for a recipe in its entirety. I actually love this kind of stuff because for years, I’ve been searching for answers such […]

A long, long time ago, someone handed me a beautiful bottle of holiday spiced red wine for Christmas. When I received it, I didn’t think much of it, but I did think it was a nice gesture. I brought it home to Laura and we let it sit on a table for a few days. […]

Since we’ve paid much more attention to breakfast, lunch and dinner recipes on this blog, I think it’s time that desserts got a little love. I’ve been picking up on this recently, but today’s dessert tops the “cake.” It’s wildly awesome and probably needs very little introduction. The Recipe Fall is here and from what […]
