TWD: Peach Tart

Ok, so those of you from the TWD group are probably saying, “Wait, Peach Tart?  What?”  I kind of broke the rules a little this week.  I needed to make a dessert for my office’s barbeque that would feed a bunch of people, and the little Parisian Apple Tarts just didn’t seem like they were […]

Mmmm….crumbs….

Er….so I appear to have gone back to posting a couple days late.  But I made it before Tuesday!

This week’s TWD recipe was the Blueberry Crumb Cake, chosen by Sihan of Befuddlement.  As always, the recipes come from Dorie Greenspan’s cookbook Baking, from My Home to Yours.
Blueberries and I have a tumultuous past–when I was […]

TWD: Caramel Crunch Bars

Technically, I think these should be called “Toffee Crunch Bars” because they use toffee, not caramel, but I didn’t write the recipe, so I guess I don’t get a say in the matter.
This week’s recipe was chosen by Whitney of What’s Left on the Table? The recipe can be found on her blog, or as […]

TWD: World Peace Cookies

I think I need to work on my cookie photographing skills, lol. Admittedly, this was an impromptu shot taken at my office with my cellphone. Anyway.
Two weeks in a row! Woot! I’m back in business! Well, a day late this week, but I did the baking before Tuesday and that’s […]

As you may have noticed, I’ve been in a bit of a baking slump lately. For some reason, I just haven’t been inspired to bake. In an effort to fight this disturbing occurrence, I made sure to participate in this week’s TWD challenge–chocolate and fresh ginger gingerbread. Chosen by Heather of Sherry […]

Let’s just go ahead and start with what y’all are here for:

The Thanksgiving Twofer Pie from Dorie Greenspan’s Baking, from My Home to Yours, this past week’s TWD recipe. It was a bit of a scramble to get this made, since I only got in to Chicago on the night before Thanksgiving! But […]

TWD: Pumpkin Muffins

Once again, I did make the TWD recipe well before Tuesday–but this week I simply forgot to post about it.  I also forgot to take pictures.  I’ll be more careful of that next week!
I’ve been in a bit of a baking slump lately–things just seem to be too busy to find time for it, or […]

TWD: Dimply Plum Cake

At least the acronym is still accurate!  This Thursday thing is getting to be a pattern.  To be fair though, I did actually make the cake on Tuesday, I just haven’t had a chance to blog about it until now!

This week’s TWD recipe was the Dimply Plum Cake, chosen by Michelle of Bake-En.   The recipe […]

Er…Thursdays with Dorie?

Ok, once again, I am woefully late.  But better late than never!

This week’s TWD bake-along were the Chocolate Chunkers cookies, chosen by Claudia of Fool for Food.   As always, the recipe can be found on her site and in Dorie Greenspan’s “Baking, from My Home to Yours.”
These were the first baked goods I brought to […]

Ok, so the cookies are actually called Chunky Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Chocolate Chipsters.  But I didn’t think that was all going to fit in the title bar, so I abbreviated =P

I thought about not participating this week, because I’m not huge on oatmeal cookies.  But I’d been busy the last couple weeks as well, […]
