I clearly cannot let go of Mardi Gras. I promise you one day that I will be there.
This is not to say that I have never visited NOLA. We stopped by during a more ambiguous time of year for a wedding.
Two things are for certain:
1. I would gain the weight of two [...]
Not all of us will be able to attend Mardi Gras this year. Or ever.
That’s okay, though. You can make up for it by creating these cookies. They are so cute I can’t even take it. Oh, if you are attending the festivities, then you are required to make these as well. So pretty [...]
A certain company that sells cookware, and tableware also happens to sell food (their initials may be W.S. )
They are currently selling a peanut butter cup cake, and the moment I laid eyes on it I pissed myself and screamed, “I MUST MAKE A COPYCAT VERSION!!”
So before I proceed I must credit this [...]

If you don’t know me by now (shame on you), then you should know I was born and (mostly) raised in Boston. I have to admit that I am first and foremost a 100 % die-hard Red Sox fan. I watched them when I was younger and they were struggling, watched them when they finally [...]

I haven’t created a savory recipe for some time, so with the Superbowl around the corner right now is as good a time as any. Of course it has to be hearty enough for real and regular football viewers to want to eat.
I have seen enough football-shaped food. Don’t get me wrong, I love [...]

Have you heard of Dollhouse Bake Shoppe? Well, it is a very cute blog and store with tutorials for cake pops and all things cute.
Lindsay Ann from Dollhouse Bake Shoppe invited me to participate in a “virtual” Valentine’s Party.
1. I love the [...]

It was only inevitable that at some point I create a baked good with a Star Wars theme. Let’s face it. Star Wars is to the internet as the Kardashians are to celebrity gossip magazines. Or the Yankees are to baseball. Tim Tebow is to ESPN coverage. Politicians are to adulterous affairs. Frantic women to DVR’ing [...]

Five days into the new year. I hope you are all still sticking to your resolutions.
I try to be a realist (i.e., cynical and negative. whatever.) and skip ahead to where I no longer stick to the resolution.
You resolve to work out more, I don’t even bother exerting initial effort. Just sit [...]

If you are throwing or attending a party for New Year’s Eve, this requires considering food and drinks to contribute.
Champagne is the clear and obvious choice. Based on the fact that I still pretend to be in college, jello is the other obvious choice for me.
I love champagne.

If you have been reading my blog for a year now (good work), then you know that I grew up celebrating Christmukkah.
In other words, my family was hypothetically Cashew. Catholic AND Jewish. Each parent taught us a little about each of their respective culture and traditions.
That’s right, I received more gifts than you. [...]

I am one of those people who makes fun of a particular group of parents. The STFU parents (I cannot explain what that means because there is a potty word in there..most of you can probably figure it out, but if you cannot ahem, Google it, ahem).
You see, regular parents fall in love with [...]

From time to time, I see some people making comments about my recipes or photos that say something along the lines of, “Wow that looks amazing, but I could never do that!”
Now there is a wide spectrum of reasons for people who say they cannot cook or bake something.
The primary reason is fear.
Maybe [...]
