[EL-LENd Me a Hand campaign update: Ellen listed my humble little self-published cookbook on her “Books Ellen Reads” page! I couldn’t be more thrilled–and I know it only came about because of all of you–so thank you, thank you! This quest also seems to have developed a life of its own. . . seems a […]

Apple Pumpkin Crumble Bars (ACD Friendly)
February 2, 2010 by 52 Comments
[photo: Celine Saki] During a conversation about something entirely unrelated yesterday, the HH uttered that well-known truism: “There are only two things you can really count on: death, and taxes.” Well, I have to tell you (and I said this to the HH, too, of course), that hasn’t quite been my experience. For instance, I’ve found […]

January 15, 2010 by 32 Comments
[Sometimes, you just want to eat something now.

So. Are we sick of giveaways yet? 😉 Okay, I guess that the chance to win something you like–especially if it involves food you like–never becomes stale (even if the aforementioned foodstuff does). Still, with 2010 barely upon us, I’ve decided it’s time to give the giveaways a break. I love being able to supply […]

December 11, 2009 by 44 Comments
I know; who says things like, “It’s the berries” any more? Okay, well, I admit that I do. I also say “take umbrage” (and said it even before I knew the Harry Potter connection), “just chillaxin’” and, sometimes, “the cat’s pyjamas” (but only when I feel like teasing The Girls). But honestly, this recent revision in my […]

[Grain-free biscuits as a base for Nectarine Shortcakes. . . ACD-friendly!] Today’s post will be a short one*, as I’m still frantically marking essays in preparation for our final exams tomorrow (and then more marking!).
