OK, so we left off yesterday gearing up to make Joy The Baker's lovely Avocado Pound Cake. All of you that did not have the proper gear had an assignment to go out and buy yourself a descent sifter-a sifter that isn't plastic, wimpy, or has a half peeled sticker stuck on it for approximately 19 years. My basic plastic sifter model became a violent weapon with the ability to blind. This is an example of the shrapnel leftover after the "accident". Just to remind you...a heap of this was blasted at me. Now, … [Read more...]
Gearing Up For Avocado Pound Cake
By on March 29, 2010 with
There was something about this month that had me craving avocados. I found myself coming home from yoga--peeling them open and scooping out their green goodness. I even have proof that this was going on because I tweeted it. "I just finished yoga and then I attacked an avocado." 12:59 PM Mar 4th via web Then, later on that same day, say about 7 hours later, something of an avocado/twitter/matrix/phenomena happened and I saw this tweet: "i made avocado pound cake... lots of amazing. http://tinyurl.com/yjf5rqx" … [Read more...]

Ooey, Gooey Cinnamon Roll Recipe

Things were a bit tight for our family this past Christmas. I know we weren't the only ones pinching pennies to try and give our kids a Christmas. We were honest with the kids. "Don't be disappointed if your pile under the tree is small this year." We are small business owners. We own a home remodeling company and with the recession, not a lot of people were doing home beautification projects. But, our kids were so understanding and gracious. They said, "It's okay. We understand. You don't have to do much, BUT...it won't … [Read more...]
