Sugar Rush: 'Swirly Dots' from the Newly Unveiled Treats Truck

Hey Zach, maybe she did three flavors today, but when I went it was Mint Chocolate and Lemon Raspberry, not Strawberry. Either way, they were delicious.

Cook the Book: The River Cottage Cookbook

I'm going to be trying my hand at the usual herbs, dill, parsley, lavender, and rosemary, as well as strawberries! I read a lot about the pesticides used on them, so I decided to try to grow my own. Hopefully I'll get enough for at least one shortcake.

Brownie Boxing: Ghirardelli vs. Jacques Torres

I force my good friend's mom to buy the Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate Mix at Costco for me. It is, by far, the best box brownie out there.

I'm a big fan of freezing my leftovers for instant meals later.

Serious Easter Artisanal Chocolate Egg Giveaway

Wonderful lamb cake. My mother has that mold too, but we eat it with just a dusting of powdered sugar. I called her just the other night to confirm that we'll have all the ingredients when I get home.

I never knew ____ could be so complicated!

Right now, it's also any yeast bread. I can make a quick bread fine, but I am just finally getting over my fear of baking with yeast.

Weekend Book Giveaway: 'Trail of Crumbs'

hot fudge sundaes, chocolate, and snickers. My dad LOVED snickers so it gives me a certain level of comfort.

Classic Cookbooks: 'Joy of Cooking' Chicken Divan

The 'updated' may actually be the classic recipe. The 1997 edition was the revised and updated one. For the 75th anniversary, the publisher decided to return to the earlier and simpler recipes, as well as using Rombauer's original voice. I find that the recipes from the 2006 edition are much more appealing than the ones in the '97 version.
