Lemon Blueberry Coffee Cake

Tuesday, June 4, 2013

Summer cake! That’s what this is. I’m declaring it the Official Cake of Summer. Or the Official Breakfast of Summer works, too. Because it’s summer. You can have cake for breakfast.

Monday, April 29, 2013

The Hubster had a birthday last week. It wasn’t like a big milestone birthday or anything, although…it was an elevensies birthday. Those are always fun. We both had elevensies birthdays this year. Anyway, it wasn’t a milestone, but since he was still overseas for his birthday last year, I was super excited to make the ...

Mini Tiered Flower Garden Cakes

Friday, March 29, 2013

When I was a little girl, my parents the Easter Bunny always put my, and my sisters’, Easter baskets at the foot of our beds. I’m not sure how that tradition started, but it was every, single year. I don’t remember ever being sneaky and trying to catch Santa Claus in the act on Christmas…I ...

Chocolate-Swirl Cinnamon Streusel Coffeecake

Friday, March 22, 2013

I went to the dentist yesterday. I had a bunch of stupid shots and I got a wisdom tooth extracted. There was nothing fun about it, and I’m being a big, spoiled baby today, because I can. I never whine, I’m never a brat when I’m sick, and I never make anyone take care of ...

Friday, March 1, 2013

Did you know that today is Ron Weasley’s birthday? Did you also know that Ron is my favorite character of the Trio? He is. I love him. He is my Wheezey. No, he’s not perfect. Yes, he can be a bit spoiled and out of touch, but he’s also funny, adorable, and more loyal than ...

The Best of Bakingdom: 2012

Monday, December 31, 2012

2012. It’s over. This was, for me, at least, one of the fastest years ever, while also being interminably slow. Starting out fast paced with a move to the West coast, it slowed way down for the almost four months I had to wait for the Hubster to come home for good. Since then, though, ...
