Recently I thought to myself, while building an apricot-raspberry tart at work, that raspberries were my least favorite berries. Strawberries are sweet and seductive, blueberries (wild ones, anyway) are tiny and tart, blackberries are big and inky and juicy. But raspberries? Really not my thing, unless of course you count one of my favorite summer [...]

Rethinking a Least Favorite
Wednesday, August 11th, 2010You Tart!
Thursday, July 8th, 2010Oh hey. It’s been like a month. I promised things were going to change, didn’t I?
…Well, they’re not. At least not in the way I promised. See, I just don’t have the energy, or honestly, the interest to be as hardcore into blogging as I was a year ago. Priorities change. So instead of stressing [...]
Humble Beginnings
Monday, March 22nd, 2010This is the first post in what will be an occasional little project I’m starting on this blog. You see, as much as I love cupcakes and coming up with ways to make them weird and wonderful, I think I bake them too much. Certainly for someone who has been working at a REAL restaurant [...]
The Perfect Excuse
Sunday, February 7th, 2010If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, or if you’ve tried to play catch-up in the archives, you may have noticed that I went crazy for Meyer lemons last winter. With my limited amount of free time (until now) I hadn’t been able to come up with an excuse to buy any. No [...]

Monday, December 28th, 2009Recently I got an email from the radtastic people at POM Wonderful. Gee, I wonder why they chose NOW to email me? Could it be…*looks up at header* Hehe!
They wanted to send me some juice. And who am I to refuse sweet, tangy pomegranate juice?
In Which I Excitedly Throw Fruit at the Reader
Monday, December 7th, 2009Well hello there. As you can see, I’m still a little…casual about updating the blog. Part of this is due to the ridiculously early darkness that prevents me from getting pictures on weekdays. Part is also due to the general feeling of “blaaahhhh I’m going back to bed” that the early darkness brings on in [...]
Teamelon
Friday, July 17th, 2009I was very interested in the quite literally mouth-watering flavor combination I’ve used in this recipe for a while, and for some reason thought it would be best in a cupcake.
Though it would still make a fun cupcake, I think the combination of juicy watermelon and strong black tea must reach its fullest potential in [...]
Healthyberry Blues
Thursday, July 16th, 2009Frozen yogurt is something I wanted to play around with some more, especially after the horrible bout of tummy aches I suffered recently, probably due to my excessive ice-cream-eating and cheese-nibbling. That’s a bad lactose-intolerant!
