Stand By Your Pan

Since it’s only Tuesday and we’ve already eaten more than our fair of pasta and rice I decided to change it up a little tonight.  We had chili and cornbread or corncake depending on how you want to spin it.  In my opinion, that doesn’t make it sound more appetizing but there’s no accounting for the tastes of a four year old.   Read the rest of this entry »

Less Than Two Weeks

Christmas is speeding toward me at breakneck speed.  I still have stuff to do!  There are still cookies to be baked!  Some nights Chase opens the door on the advent calendar and I think that it just might have been a bad idea.  I’m not sure that I need the constant reminder of how soon Christmas will be here.   Read the rest of this entry »

Pink Smarties Cake!

I really, really can’t believe that it’s been a whole year.  Where did the time go?  I’ve been trying, unsuccessfully, to figure out the answer to that question.  It’s unbelievable really.  It was a good day even if we all cried just a little.

You Can’t Catch Me I’m The Gingerbread Man

The tremendous quantity of gingerbread that we made and froze is now all baked!  There stares the gingerbread boy from inside his glass prison.  Don’t worry I’ll liberate him one day soon as I can’t seem to keep my hand out of the cookie jar.

How To Decorate You Gingerbread House

You know it’s done when every surface is covered with icing and candy.  That’s when it’s done.  Then the eating begins.  Well, we left the front in tact so maybe that will hang around as a decoration for a little while.

Gingerbread

I feel like I’ve written so many posts about my kitchen shenanigans.  Things that seemed like a good idea at the time.  Recipes that seemed so simple going into them.  Maybe the 14 pages of directions should have tipped me off but the cookies were so easy to do.  I had no idea.  Add gingerbread to the list.

Happy Friday

I woke up this morning, and even though I should have devoted the entire day to dusting and vacuuming, all I could think about was gingerbread.  I really wanted to make a gingerbread house but,  around 4 o’clock and after a glass of wine, I decided a few gingerbread boys was the more realistic goal for the day and they were tasty if I do say so myself.     Read the rest of this entry »

Many Loaves

After being out of bread for many, many days I decided to do something about it.  I experimented with a recipe for pain de mie a couple of weeks ago and it was pretty good.  Then I came across this recipe somewhere in the blogosphere and decided to try it.   Read the rest of this entry »

They Strike Again

Trolls, trolls every day.  I promised Chase yesterday that we could make cupcakes today.  We turned them into get well cupcakes with troll cupcake toppers.  This troll thing has been going on for an unbelievably long time.   Read the rest of this entry »

A Few Things

My house is a mess.  It’s totally covered with toys and baby gear.  To the gills it is.  You can’t take a step in here without stepping on something small and pointy.  That’s at least partly because I bought a bag of small pointy toys on Saturday.  I took Chase to the thrift store and let her pick some things.  It was fun but I’m starting to question whether or not it was a good idea after all.   Read the rest of this entry »
