It seems as if a plateau has been reached in your career, your inspiration can start to wane and quite frankly, you feel it time to give up. We all have our trial and errors in the cooking world. Lately I just haven't been on my… MORE

Once again, the Dallas Morning News spurred me into action, and this time the food section prompted me to embark on bark. I’m not talking about dog bark or tree bark but rather the sheets of hardened candy so sugary that a couple of pieces can knock out the most aggressive sweet tooth. MORE

We repaired Gingerbread House version 1.0 and added version 2.0, plus a tree and two men...They're really over the top with all the crazy candy adornments my kids added, but they had fun.  Perfection was not the aim here... MORE

So, we have embarked on a baking and decorating extravaganza this morning.  So far, I baked brownies (from a mix - a gift from my daughter's kinder teacher), and then added a chocolate drizzle to the tops along with a crushed candy cane peppermint sprinkle.  I had an assistant for the… MORE

A gift box arrived today jam packed with baking goodies courtesy of my MIL.  My kids and I have already made several batches of chocolate chip cookies, and a batch of sugar cookies made with cookie presses (we each have our own presses, the nice 'gun' variety).  And, we've assembled… MORE
