Peanut (and Macadamia Nut) Brittle
Peanut brittle is sweet, salty, crunchy, and horribly addictive. Plus it's really simple to make, you don't even need to use a candy thermometer! Could it be any better? ...yes.. you can add macadamia nuts to the mix. You an use any mix of peanuts and macadamia nuts as long as together i...
Your cat is soooo cute. We would love to own one again, but at the moment we adopted three Guinea pigs. So the cat has to wait.
My husband would love these beautiful treats! Thanks for sharing.

How to Make Candied Orange Peels
I had my doubts about candied peels. Store bought varieties are bitter and unpleasant and all in all they have always seemed like something that would always be too 'old' for me. However I was very very wrong. Like most things, the store bought version does not represent how these taste when...
Wellington shows great taste! He is so cute.

Winter Coat Cookies and Wellington
This is the face of a contented cat... Contented because he got up during the night to toss some cookies. I'm not using that phrase as a euphemism for throwing up. He literally threw some cookies onto the floor for his enjoyment while we were sleeping. Wellington has been really well beh...
What a pretty boy. He is so lucky to have found a new home with you.

Wellington
A small break from baking this week (except for the usual bread baking) to shower our new kitty with attention. We decided to adopt an adult cat from the shelter earlier this month and we finally went and picked one out this weekend. I was pretty much dying from cat-related excitement all we...
In German we call them "Heidesand". My family has been baking these cookies every Christmas. They are my very favorite. I can hardly wait to bake them soon again.

Brown Butter Cookies
This is how these cookies came into being: After using brown butter to make rice krispie squares I really couldn't wait to use it again in my baking. Last week I (finally) bought cookie sheets to replace the ones that got lost in the move so I also couldn't wait to make cookies. So, google: br...
Yes, I was waiting for you to post this recipe and here it is. Such a great looking bread. I will have to give it a try. Thanks.

Braided Lemon Bread
I made this bread for my weekend brunch and I can't wait to make it again. Sweet soft dough is braided on top of lemoncurd and cream cheese filling and then baked into warm golden goodness. I had spotted the recipe for the bread a while back on Smitten Kitchen and added it to my 'I want to ma...
Hi Adam,
I have two children. I hope both of them will find a partner they will love and share their life with. That is all that matters. I want my kids to be happy.
I was at my brother in laws wedding. The priest there was going on and on against gay relationships. I could hardly hold myself back on the bench. I thought, how terribly rude of him. Who is he to judge?? Especially, since the brides brother is gay and was sitting in church with us.
I have several gay friends. They are all wonderful people. I wish society would stop judging.
O.K.. That is probably enough (I could still go on for a while).
I am happy for you to have brought your family together at one table. This is what life is about.
Cheers
Kirsten

It Gets Better (Cooking for My Boyfriend & Our Families)
When I told my friend Alex that I was cooking a dinner for my parents and Craig's parents at
That looks like a very successful brunch to me. Will you share the recipe of the lemon bread?
Enjoy your Le Creuset. They are just wonderful pots.

Brunch
Is there anything better than brunch?? This weekend my boyfriend and hosted a brunch for six. As per usual when cooking together he made the meal menu and took care of all the prep and cooking while I was in charge of any baked goods that we would need. This arrangement worked out well becau...
