frosting which seemed fine but ordered a blueberry scone. It was chock full of berries but when I tore off a piece, it had a bizarre fluffy consistency and the taste was icky. I know I’ve cooked blueberry bread before and...

out of a cast iron skillet,the fries are the crinkle cut variety,invariably perfectly cooked and served in a yeoman portion,the Rootbeer is draught and comes in a frosted pint glass with a handle.Atmosphere,as you might imagine...

So far, cool but gentle rain. Potted plants left on porch because of Monday’s frost warning were moved to walkway to enjoy the rain. Weekend looks good. I’m counting on Saturday’s sun and higher temps to put...

cake. no frosting. I would buy this one for a snack cake to eat walking down the street. not a party cake. I liked this best with a cup of coffee, sitting in the late afternoon sun. Tastes too sweet for me: I would not purchase...

to make this Sun 12-11 for presentation on Thurs 12-15. Does anyone have any EASY recipes? I have never made a jelly roll in my life and that what I am thinking is involved here. Once we make it, can we freeze it or how can we...

I went to Bakery La Mejor in Union City the other day. It’s a small Mexican bakery that sells very tasty sweets. I tried the tres leche cake, a slice is around $1-$2. It’s a very rich, moist yellow cake w/ a white...

to god, taste like the sun. They’re just so bright and flavorful in your mouth. Right now I’m eating a white chocolate/macadamia cookie, and I’ve never before been so able to distinguish the tatstes of white...

I went to Buttercream too. Their cupcakes are the fudgey kind. They’re good, tried the chocolate and mocha. The chocolate has a vanilla frosting covered with tiny chocolate squares. So you get a clean chocolate taste with...

looks ambitious – lots of sandwiches – Cuban pork, grilled yellowfin tuna, blackened salmon,jerk chicken, and of course, burgers. They also serve breakfast until 2 pm on Sat/sun, but we were too late for that. I had a...

On my way to the NC Coast this past weekend I stoped at Mike’s Farm and Restaurant in Beaulaville for a slice of “10 Layer Cake”. The cake was yellow with a very thin chocolate frosting on top and between the...

I’m with you there because I don’t like frosting very much. It seems like most cupcakes have a much higher frosting to cake ratio than cakes do. Otherwise, I have nothing particularly philosophical to say about the...

For me, Auntie Em’s is supreme. The size is generous, cupcake is dense and moist, and the frosting divine. You are going to find a million opinions on this issue, though. You will have to do what we all do- go ahead, try...

My first instinct was that you should go for the tropical theme. Pina coladas. Pork ribs (in honor of the wild boar). Fish biscuits are a good idea! Maybe Dharma logo-shaped cookies, frosted with black and white frosting for the...

I’m often at the mercy of weather and schedule. I did a couple of Trout last week that worked well in spite of going 5 days! I let the pieces brine for 2 days and then sit on racks for in a frost-free fridge for 2-1/2 days...

that’s been sitting out in the sun would taste like.
