Sweet of the Week #5, Blueberry Custard Pie with Emily
A couple of weeks ago it popped up in conversation with my friend Emily that National Pie Day was coming up soon. It has since passed, but from that conversation I learned that Emily’s favorite pie is Blueberry Custard. Before making these pies, I had never made or eaten Blueberry Custard pie. In fact, eating…
Sweet of the Week #4, Choco-Toffee-Craisin Cookies with Tina

Sweet of the Week #2, Chocolate Snowball Cupcakes with Richard
I’m not a baking purist. I sometimes take shortcuts in the kitchen. So here goes…This week’s sweet uses a mix. Gasp! In the last post, I mentioned my dislike of many gluten-free mixes.
