Serious Eats: monicabg's Profile

oh, and for specifics: it was smittenkitchen.com 's chocolate layers (three of them) seedless raspberry filling and seven minute frosting. perfect contrast with the tart filling and sweet billowy frosting.

Is it OK to make a birthday cake for yourself?

I'm so glad I ended up making my own cake last birthday. it was just what I wanted and I got to spend my birthday doing what I love.

Go to the diner that skyline is trying to be: Pleasant Ridge Chili. PRC is great for coneys, gravy cheese fries, and plenty of locals.

http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/ is one of my favorites (along with SE, of course!) - her entire blog receives several visits a day from me as I check to see if there is anything new - I discovered this delightful site this summer - I've tried several of her recipes, and am smitten - I'd really love to win her cookbook!
