Chocolate Peanut Butter Mousse Cake

 
Ethan’s 15th birthday is Monday.  His birthday is the 29th anniversary of Marc and my first date, too. :)
Anyway, we celebrated it last night with friends and family.  He had three of his closest friends spend the night.  Of course one of the little brothers (of two of the friends) is best friends with Sean […]

Chocolate Lava Cake…Elegant and Easy

 
First of all…I have to admit that I dropped the camera.  Now when I want to take a picture I have to hold the thing closed with a finger while trying to get the shot without shaking.  Easier said than done… Hopefully I can either get that fixed or get a new camera soon.
Anyway, I […]

How to Be Gourmet

Please, if you have anything in your mouth, swallow it. If there is anything that can be knocked over, move it. This is serious comedy. Don’t try this at home.

Root Beer Float Marble Cake

 
There is something that few people know about me. So heinous, so frightening, so down-right childish…
I am addicted to root beer floats. Yes I am.
I am old enough to remember real root beer, the kind that was made fresh at the A & W drive ins. Wow. And, I am going to learn […]

Victorian Rose Pound Cake

 
A Victorian Rose Poundcake recipe? Me?
Yeah.
I am really all about chocolate when it comes to desserts. I like things to be intense.  When I painted I painted still lifes on very dark backgrounds, very much in the style of the Dutch Masters of the 1600s.  When I listen to music I like it to be […]

Cherry Marshmallow Brownies

I hate being unprepared.
I notice that the more kids I have had, the bigger house I have had, the more projects I have going, the more I am unorganized. My family, as you know, has a combined sweet tooth the size of Vermont. Maybe bigger. Therefore, if I want there to be peace […]

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Squares

I had an exhausting day of shopping yesterday and ended up getting home late, stressed and ready to tell everyone that if grazing was good enough for the horses it was good enough for them. I hate being rushed, and i hate running late, and I really wanted to make a good meal since we […]

We host a home group meeting every Wednesday night for our church…Some of you may know them as small groups, or cell groups.  The thing is that if you […]

Peach Crumble Cake

When we first moved to a suburb outside of Doylestown, Pa. in 1964 there were few houses in the brand new development called Palomino Farms. I was four years old and the precocious only child in the neighborhood. As such, I felt it was my duty to entertain the adults around me […]
