Snickerdoodle Bark

This weekend I got an email from my friend Nancy telling me about some cinnamon flavored cookies she’d found at her local gourmet store.

I’ve added a new vanilla to the collection! This one is from the Camisoni family, who have been making pure extracts for over a hundred years. I wish I’d discovered them sooner because not only are their products wonderful, they make great gifts – especially for anyone with an affinity for Italian ingredients. Before I [...]

Earthquake Cake

I can’t believe it took me so long to try this recipe; and hopefully in years to come I’ll be serving it at potlucks, teacher appreciation events and Girl Scout meetings to make up for lost time. For now, I’m just glad I have a small “Earthquake Cake” to serve tonight.
