Seriously? How cool is magic shell? It starts all liquid-y then BAM it's frozen and shatter-y the minute it hits anything frozen. The stuff from the grocery store has all sorts of crap in it of course, but you can make it at home with just two (or three) pantry staples. As these two versions were used to coat Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream Bars (stay tuned for the recipe tomorrow!) I left them un-sweetened and the slightly bitter edge paired brilliantly with the ice cream, but if you … [Read more...]
SABH October – Halloween!
After a few months filled with a few new fabulous guest hostesses I'm back to take my turn hosting for Sweet Adventures Blog Hop. As it is October and I do have a soft spot for all things pumpkin and Halloween, I couldn't quite resist making this month's SABH theme all about ghouls, ghosts and general trick or treat debauchery. This is your chance to use your imagination and go crazy! Put your cupcakes in a witches hat costume, dress them up as little devils or pipe on frosting in the … [Read more...]
Concord Grape Curd & Vegan Meringue Pie Parfaits
Well now isn't that a mouthful in more ways than one. I mentioned that we are off on another adventure, however as the first two weeks of our trip involved hanging out in Cape Cod with my extended family, followed by a week at Mom's farm in upstate NY, it was nearly impossible to keep me out of the kitchen. I found myself whipping up salads and cakes and more salads along the way so figured I may as well pull out a slightly unusual twist for this month's Sweet Adventures Blog … [Read more...]
Berry Banana Smoothie, a Dairy-free & Vegan Guest Post
After months of watching other people head off on holidays, RJ and I are finally taking a break and making our way through America-land for a few weeks. In my absence the lovely Claire is here to ply you with treats. You may remember Claire from a few months back when I guest posted over on her site - she was one of those aforementioned holidaying people - and it's great to have her here. Thanks again! (Oh, and if you want to follow our eating adventure holiday, Instagram is probably … [Read more...]
Macadamia & Coconut Granola – gluten, dairy, fructose free
3 days. 3 days until we're sitting on an airplane headed to America-land. 3 days of blur. The past few weeks have flown by in a flurry of editing and technical-publishing-learning-as-I-go-blah-blah and food photography and art direction. It will continue up until the moment we leave, and quite possibly for a bit while we are away, and as a result the impending holiday is proving a bit more laced with stress than anticipation. Incidentally, any recommendations on things to do and places to … [Read more...]
Chai Spiced Snickerdoodles & a makeover, of course
I have no story to tell today. My head is full, but full of lists and need-to-dos and must-dos and should-dos. The lists squeeze the stories into a tiny room with little light and a window that seems to be painted shut. The stories bang on the door every now and then, demanding attention. I appease them with tea and cookies. I'm hoping I can appease you with the same. These cookies have been percolating in my head every since they were suggested by Jackie B over on this post as … [Read more...]
Almond Croissants – the makeover edition
I once read in a book that there is no such thing as a coincidence. The story went that when something or someone repeatedly crossed your path there was a cosmic reason behind it. The author continued on to explain that you should not just dismiss these occurrences as coincidence, but actively pursue them to determine how it could change the path of your life. Of course the people in this book, if I remember correctly, could also see energy and eventually crossed into another astral … [Read more...]
