And all I got was this silly post. And a new house with a pool! š My site is fixed y’all, and I’m so exited to talk about FOOD and writing, in that order! š Welcome back to my site that has been sooooo broken for so long! Special thanks to Meriah for getting it …
This is THE recipe, well, one version of THE recipe — THE CUSTARD RECIPE!Ā See, when I was growing up custard was one of those amazing treats that I couldnāt get enough of…early on mom made mostly ābaked custardā (which I make and post for all you lovely people soon, I promise, but we are …
Guys, I found this amazing cake…and made it…and it was so good I’ve got to share: Chocoflan Ā¼ cup cajeta — if you don’t have this just make a soft caramel (or melt down some caramels from the store) Cake: 1āĀ½ cups all-purpose flour 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon …
I donāt ever remember my mom making this one, but I do remember the āpick your ownā farm down the road. They had asparagus (which we picked A LOT of) and later blueberries — which was not as much fun as it sounded because they had only recently planted those bushes and they were like …

We have another guest recipe today — why?Ā Because sometimes I just get in the mood for something and I want to make it.Ā You know how it is — you start thinking about Carrot Souffle and then you canāt stop thinking about the light, airy deliciousness.Ā Your mouth is watering for warm carroty goodness …
Mom didnāt really have a recipe for this, because it was really a āuse what is on handā sort of recipe — which is perfect for our isolated status, where Iām spending time trying to clean out the cabinet rather than risking the stoes. Itās not that I canāt get groceries…itās just…well, yaāll I tried …
So, Iām stuck at home because of a pandemic (which is something I never thought Iād write in my life) — so what am I doing? Baking and Cooking! I have realized that getting up and getting to work takes a lot more energy than I think it does. Since weāve been home (Iām working …
