Chocolate Truffle Sauce

My dear friend Laura L. who LOVES anything chocolate gave me this amazing sauce one year for Christmas. It is seriously good--a huge step up from regular chocolate sauce. It really does taste like you have poured a fine chocolate truffle over your icecream. All of a sudden a simple treat has turned into a decadent, rich , first class dessert. This is something you could serve to impress and yet it

Baguette

I found this fabulous recipe on Frosted Bake Shop. It is soooo yummy and soooo easy! I couldn't believe that it only needed to rise 30 minutes and bake for 15. A perfect recipe when you feel like warm homemade bread but didn't have the foresight to plan hours ahead of time. My husband informed me that this was the best bread I have ever made... pretty dramatic statement from a guy that comments on

Tribute to my sweet Mom

I developed my love of cooking at an early age “helping” my Mom bake cookies, make dinner, and knead bread. She had quite the well of patience! She is the one that taught me about measurements, leavening agents, egg-washes, the basic white sauce, and numerous other mysteries of the kitchen!  I cherish the memories I have of learning to cook at her side. Thank you Mom! You instilled in me a respect for work as well as a joy in creating delicious things. I love you! xoxo
