I was pleasantly surprised, well it was more like totally excited when Ryan, over at Ryan Bakes http://www.ryanbakes.com/ held a giveaway for one of her favorite cookbooks and I won! The title, Desserts From The Famous Loveless Cafe. You’ll find the The Loveless Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee and opened its doors in 1951.
This summer I plan on posting recipes using local summer fruits and vegetables. Back in the late spring I started my first raised bed garden. With the idea of keeping it simple I planted tomatoes, several varieties, peppers, strawberries, herbs and an eggplant. The tomatoes have done wonderfully, the eggplant nothing yet, the peppers have […]
It worked out perfectly for me to share the 5 recipes I’ll be preparing at tonight’s cooking class at Central Market. Of late I am; short on time, in summer mode, spending late nights on the porch, sleeping in past sunrise, spending time with friends and family, taking long walks, and lovin’ life.

I’m outta here! Temporarily, that is. I will be heading out-of-town later this week with a bunch of girlfriends to have girl time and fun times down at the river. The Guadalupe River in Texas is a wonderful place to unwind, relax, chill out, call it what you like.
With April being declared the month of sweets I don’t seem to be posting as often as I would like. The flip side to that thought is, I would have too many sweets covering the kitchen counter or the dining table and filling up my tummy.
