This cake is seriously amazing. I have been anticipating making this cake for oh, seven or eight years. That’s right, YEARS. I first had this cake when visiting the Medoways. The Darster made it for some occasion, perhaps a birthday, a graduation, or maybe a Saturday, but regardless this cake left an impression on me. [...]

Oops, I think you’re supposed to post these things before the holiday, but as we all know, I’m not always the most prompt blogger out there. Anyways…chocolate stout cupcakes. While I do appreciate celebrating my rich Irish heritage (I’m from Boston. Does that count?), the actual motivation for making these cupcakes was the fact [...]

Oh hey! Have a good Christmas? Do anything exciting over the holiday? See a good movie and eat some Chinese food? I did all of those things. Except eat Chinese food. I did eat Beef Wellington though. It was my first Beef Wellington experience and has confirmed my suspicions that the basis of British food [...]

It’s the first day of fall! You wouldn’t know it by the sweaty, vice grip summer has on us here in Maryland. It’s measuring in at healthy 90º today. What the heck?! It’s September 23rd – time to put away the shorts and bring on the sweaters. As I may have mentioned before, I really [...]

Blueberry what? Blueberry who? Blueberry how? I feel like there have been a lot of blueberries in my life lately. I’m not entirely sure where they have been going, but my blueberry consumption is definitely up this year. I’ve made a few batches of blueberry ice cream, but none of them have really been blog [...]

We’ve had record breaking temperatures here in Maryland for the last…what seems like forever. When I moved here people would warn me of the hot summers down here to which I would respond, “Pshaw, I can take the heat.” Ok, I admit, I started writing this post like a week and a half ago when [...]

Technically this is a mixed berry bundt cake. There are two, count ‘em, two raspberries in this cake as well. If you find them, you win a prize. It’s awesome. This cake is also awesome. And I finally, finally, got to use my new bundt pan. And by new, I mean I got it two [...]

Elise came to visit this weekend from Chicago! Melissa, Elise, and I all lived together senior year of college and while our apartment lacked 36 packs of Bud Light and rows of shot glasses, we did have a pasta maker and panini press. Let’s just say we like to cook. So when Foodbuzz came a-knocking [...]

I’ve recently become obsessed with kettle corn. It’s sweet, it’s salty, and I can’t get enough. Except apparently short of a state fair, street festival, or amusement park, kettle corn is hard to find. I managed to snag a bag from Trader Joe’s last week and then I may or may not (or may) have [...]

I have a problem. A strawberry problem. Remember how I said I bought 4 pounds of strawberries the other day? So I made strawberry ice cream? Well, I couldn’t help myself…I bought another 4 pounds of strawberries. I’m not even kidding. I have been eating strawberries for breakfast, strawberries for snacks, strawberries for dessert…and the [...]

I was eleven years old the first time I had ice cream. I was lactose intolerant when I was younger which precluded me from enjoying the creamy goodness that is ice cream. However, once I had that first taste, I never looked back. My first real job was at an ice cream stand where I [...]
