Tuesdays With Dorie - Granola Grabbers
Well, let’s see here. Today’s recipe was Granola Grabbers. I followed the recipe to the letter, even making a last-minute run for coconut.
I plopped my cookies out onto the parchment-ed tray, and I stuck my trays in the oven. Easy. So easy. And if the dough was any indication, these cookies were going to be [...]
Tuesdays With Dorie - Blueberry Sour Cream Ice Cream
I was really good this week, I swear! After I made the decision to use an ice cream maker for this week’s recipe, I went right out and bought one. I had all the ingredients in my fridge so that I could get right to it when I got back from my trip to Ocean [...]

Today I finally got my new car–a 2008 Honda Civic Hybrid. This means a lot of different things to me. First, I can give my mom back her pimpin’ Astro Van. Second, I can feel free to drive where I want when I want. Third, I can finally put the horrifying, traumatic car wreck behind [...]

The comment turn-out was huge for my last TWD entry. Maybe if I make stuff explode every time, people will continue to love me. I just got back from a five-day vacation, so I have a lot of reading to do. I’ll be meme-ing and reading your blogs in the near future. At any rate, [...]
Read More..>>Tuesdays with Dorie - Chocolate Pudding Disaster
Last week’s Double Crusted Blueberry Pie was DIFFICULT. I was so happy to hear that this week’s would be chocolate pudding, a recipe I’ve made dozens of times.
1) Open packet of pudding mix.
2) Add milk and/or water.
3) Shake shake shake shake shake.
Okay, so it’s bound to be more difficult than that, but not much, right?
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
I [...]
Things I Love
Black marble composition books. I own boxes full of them, and they’re pretty much all empty. There’s something nostalgic about these things. I was forced to write “journal entries” in these during Sunday School when I was little. I remember quite clearly answering a prompt about Moses with a longwinded answer about Moses Malone. I [...]

I’m learning to bake through the power of Internet bloggery. The gist is, every Tuesday I will post about a different baked good from Baking: From My Home To Yours by Dorie Greenspan. This is all part of the wonderful Tuesdays With Dorie blogroll. You’ll see my disasters and far-less-frequent triumphs at the oven.
I started [...]
Tuesdays with Dorky (and the temple of chocolate)
Gold, I tell you! Everything I touch turns to gold! I’ve been winning grand awards left and right!
I recently won a contest at Tuesdays with Dorie, giving me a free baking cookbook (and a seat among the hallowed TWD blogroll). TWD is a baking event. Every week, a recipe is picked from the [...]

3 Tbsp. milk
1 tsp. cinnamon

Microwave the apple much like you would “bake” a potato. Poke [...]
Amazing Black Bean Brownies: good for your heart, make you etc.
My last post was a recipe post, I guess. More, it was just a suggestion post. This here is my first post where I actually experimented with ingredients and made foods that did not taste like crunchy water!
I have an ever-increasing backlog of recipes that I kinda-sorta want to try, but will probably never get [...]
