Here’s a super easy dip to make, just in time for New Year’s Eve festivities! I first learned of a similar recipe from the Pirates in the Pantry Cookbook, published by the Parrot Head Club of Connecticut 7 or 8 years ago. In the cookbook, the recipe calls for dairy cheeses and meat-y chili. I’ve…
Peppermint Bark Cheesecake
This cheesecake was inspired by Baked by Rachel’s White Chocolate Peppermint Bark Cheesecake. You’ll notice mine doesn’t contain “white chocolate” in the title. That’s because I made my version of this cheesecake not only gluten-free but also dairy-free. In the holiday rush, I neglected to order any dairy-free white chocolate. So here it is, Peppermint…
Why I Love Pinterest: Christmas 2011 Baking Edition
I blogged over at my non-baking spot, Johnna52, about some of the fun things I’ve done this holiday season inspired by Pinterest. And then I realized I had done a whole bunch of holiday baking inspired by Pinterest, too. I thought I’d share those things with you! First up, these adorable Oreo truffle snowmen from…
Why I Love Pinterest: Christmas 2011 Edition
I sure do enjoy Pinterest. It’s my go-to for finding new decorating ideas, new recipes, new travel destinations to dream about. And I’ve recently discovered it’s also the source of much holiday inspiration for me. I thought I’d share a few of the ideas I pinned on Pinterest and show you what I did with…
Sweet of the Week #49, A Learning Experience…
This week I planned to share with you a Sweet featuring Velvet Creme Popcorn. You know those giant tins of popcorn you see at the holidays? Well, those were originally the creation of Velvet Creme Popcorn, a company founded in 1937 in Kansas City. Way back in 1954, Velvet Creme first offered popcorn in a…
Sweet of the Week #46, #47 and #48: Oatmeal Caramelized Onion Muffins with Sheep’s Milk Cheese
This week’s Sweet incorporates three of the Ingredients on this year’s list: Oatmeal, Onions and Sheep’s Milk Cheese. These muffins are my current favorite from the entire year. I got a little teary-eyed in the kitchen while eating them warm from the oven, I didn’t expect them to be so good as the combination of…
Sweet of the Week #45, Cream Cheese Frosted Spice Cupcakes with Aleppo Pepper
The holiday craziness has taken hold here and I’m finding my baking and blogging time a wee bit limited. I’ve resorted to using a mix (gasp!) again, but assure you this one is delicious, so worth trying. Plus, I’m about to share a really handy tip with those of you unashamed to occasionally use a…
Sweet of the Week #44, Snowball Cupcakes with Cotton Candy
One of my favorite gluten-free snacks is Cotton Candy. Sure, it’s all sugar and food coloring, but it’s also only 100 calories per serving. For awhile my hair was pink, which resulted in my husband remarking several times it must be a result of all of the cotton candy I eat. That’s a possibility, because…
Light ‘Em Up, random acts of holiday kindness
I was going to wait until the first of the year to tell you about what I did the month of December…but here it is the 5th of December and I’m having so much fun with this project that I wanted to tell you about it. I’m kinda hoping you’ll read this and join me…
I Ate Here: Seasons 52
Last Sunday evening we went out for dinner, an opportunity to wrap up the Thanksgiving festivities with a meal that included no leftovers. We decided to visit Seasons 52 in Kansas City, a relatively new-to-the-area restaurant located in a picturesque area of the city, especially during the holidays. First, I must say that Seasons 52…
