Super easy (and Delicious!) Chocolate Cake!

I’ve made this recipe quite a few times, and it’s recieved great reviews each time. Not from Epicurious for once! It’s really good and easy, plus it’s been described as “Coma-inducing”. In a good way. Ghiradelli Grand Fudge Cake I suggest puree-ing raspberries and spreading them between the layers. Chocolate and raspberries…yum!

The Land Of Birthday Cakes

It seems that I am becoming the go-to source for birthday cakes. I’m glad, actually. I love making cakes because they are a challenge and so much harder to make than cookies, brownies or cupcakes. (Usually. Some cookies, cupcakes, and brownies can be scary. Seriously.) A couple months ago I made Anne a birthday cake. [...]

Life is Short: 101 things to do before you die

It always occurs to me whenever someone dies in a book that maybe they didn’t do everything they would have liked. Or, when a person is a ghost, and they talk about all the things they wish had happened in their human life. Or when a person is about to die and they suddenly realize [...]

Delicious Cake for Coffee- and Choco-holic that lurks in most bloggers

I made this cake with my friend who came from florida to visit recently. As for the title, well, however much many people like to deny it, we love chocolate. It’s human nature. What’s better than chocolate? Coffee and chocolate. So, for those who love to bake, or who want to suck up to someone, [...]

Chocolate, Cheese, and Trueblood

After finally returning from my trip to Wisconsin (where I did not have any internet access, at all. I’m sure that if I were as brilliant as Denise, I could have made a computer out of a flat rock, a piece of chocolate and some lake water, but I’m not. I’m sure that if I [...]

Moving is more unpleasant than being dipped in acid

Alright, maybe thats a bit of a hyperbole, but still, i must complain because it is preventing me from blogging regularly! Anyway, have you ever felt like the world is ending and that you would just kill for a brownie and a break to eat it in? That’s how I’m feeling. So, to all who [...]

Delicious cookies that it would suck worse than any vampire could if they didn’t exist

Another fab recipe from Epicurious. I made these cookies for teacher appreciation week, and my history teacher’s wife really liked them. So I decided to link to them (below) so you could try them. I put crystallized ginger niblets on top of white icing, which was delicious and more classy looking than the colored icing [...]
