Dorie mentions on the page of this recipe that it was from a friend who likes a “dry cake” which was intriguing. Mind you I thought about many ways to “spruce up” what was sounding to be a bit blah. Dry. Coconut. Cake. I mean, really, who looks forward to that? But, I did not even [...] With St. Patrick’s Day around the corner (by just minutes) I wanted to adjust this week’s TWD recipe to be a bit more “green”. So then I had to decide between exchanging the raspberries either for kiwi fruit or pistachio nuts. These will be cut into squares for the weekly meeting tomorrow at work, so [...] I may have commented before on my, well, lack of like for coconut. I have a great deal of aversion to the paper like shreds sold in bags here in the states. While in Peru, I realized that coconut does not actually come from the bags themselves (although it does seem to taste like it!) [...] Do you enjoy dessert for breakfast? I always enjoy the luxury of enjoying a true sweet treat with my morning coffee. You know how banana bread can be the perfect delight morning noon and night?

Soon, very soon I will share more about life’s craziness and the upcoming changes [...] Summer in Peru means a wonderful variety of fruits but berries are consistently scarce. One of my favorite things about summer fruits is the mango. There are several varieties of mangoes and some are good for juice, some for eating and some for crunching on with salt! The Haden mangoes are perfect to slice up [...] Tuesdays With Dorie was begun by Laurie of Quirky Cupcake as a form of accountability for baking at least once a week using the cookbook, Baking: From My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan. When she invited others to bake along, I knew it would be a great opportunity to learn some new techniques and [...] Camping was something I enjoyed many times with my family. I was also a frequent visitor to Christian Summer Camps. I cannot say I remember roasting marshmallows with my family or at those large camps.
