Well, I haven´t been cooking all that much lately and I´m finally running out of older recipes, and I´m not even participating in the Daring Bakers challenge this month, but I couldn´t let this day go by without telling you to check out the Strawberry Mirror Cake they made this month. Yes, go ahead, I´ll [...]
When I think of sweet concoctions, they don´t usually include things like olive oil and rosemary. But after reading a recipe in Baking, I started reconsidering and thinking “just why the heck wouldn´t it work?”.
Well, I´m pleased to say it worked like a charm. So much so that next time I´m increasing the quantity of [...]
Well, it seems that this one will add up to the recently growing voyeuristic section of my blog (I´m hoping the use of the word will increase blog traffic exponentially, because as you know, sex sells.)

Lately I´ve been doing a whole lot of cooking, but falling a bit short on the writing part of the deal. And since I must be at least 6 or 7 recipes behind right now, I´m thinking my only way out of this mess is to do a recap sort of post, you know, like [...]
Not everyone has a huge kitchen with a big sink or a dishwasher, some of us have tiny kitchens with small sinks and hate the thought of washing dishes, which is why a recipe like this is a godsend.
