I can’t believe I’ve gone so many months without mentioning Eric’s all-time favorite dessert. If he’s in the mood for a sweetie, it’s 9 times out of 10 going to be brown sugar pound cake.
It’s a rather popular old family recipe, and I can see why. Somehow, it’s even more rich than the buttery pound [...]
Have you heard of Pioneer Woman? Her blog is fantastic!
Go on, take a peek. She covers all kinds of topics besides food. She was up for six Bloggies this year, you know, and won three!
These are her cinnamon rolls. If you like cinnamon rolls, you must try these. They are just as good (if not [...]
Sometimes, no matter how much I love my chocolate, I just have to have something… else. That’s right, something other than chocolate. Shocking, I know.
That’s where these cookies come in. I had actually never really liked peanut butter cookies before around three or four years ago, when we still lived in the dorms and had [...]

Naturally, I got right on top of making home-cooked dinners (goodbye forever, dorm food!) and some of my tried-and-true baking favorites. Yet somehow, I forgot [...]
Happy Valentine’s Day!
…
Er, clearly I need to be more on top of my timing. How do other food bloggers manage to get their holiday-themed posts done on, or even.. before the actual holiday? Oh well. I, for one, was in the process of decorating these guys on the 14th, to be served later that night [...]
I originally obtained this recipe over ten years ago, from the mom of one my best friends growing up. (Hi, Mrs. M!) Once I detached myself from that ubiquitous recipe from the back of that yellow bag, these seriously became one of the favorite cookies of my childhood. These days, while my usual go-to chocolate [...]
For such a die-hard chocolate fan, it’s a little strange to me that my first post (… ever!) is for a recipe that is so not chocolate. It is, however, a perfect example of eggs, sugar, flour, and butter coming together for a pretty fantastic dessert. Oh. And about that butter — be ready for [...]
