A cake is done when you poke it with a toothpick and it doesn't scream

A little about yourself...
I am a Pastry Chef, who for the most part put down her spatula to raise 2 kids. My Husband and I hated each other at first when we first met in culinary school, but a nasty chef quarrel soon turned into love. With our first bun in the oven life quickly changed. I gave up my fast past life in Austin, TX to move to Indiana to be closer to my Husbands parents and help him pursue his career. Once we had our home/business in order we decided to add another cookie to the batch, which makes us a foursome. While I am happy to stay at home with our children I still find time to do work from home. I even help my Husband with his pastry business even though we have our creative differences.
In my free time besides rollin' out cakes and cookies I also dabble in writing, photography, drawing/painting, and crocheting. Long Live Cake!

Twilight + Obsessed = Twi-sessed

About oh let's say the beginning of my second trimester Michael and I went to Barnes and Nobles to buy book. Finding my books weren't in stock I found myself at the staff recommendations shelf staring at a book called Twilight . Sadly to say most times I do judge books by their covers, and this one looked like nothing special. But according to "Sarah" it was a must read book that would have you running for the next. Cue Michael telling me to… Continue

I'm so lame, let me tell you why

Today was just a day where the "wow I'm a loser" thoughts just kept rolling in. I shall start in countdown form:
5. This morning I noticed that I'm probably encouraging a speech impediment in my child. Example: Blueberries=Boob berries, in a sentence Hey Arthur do you want boob berries for breakfast. Example 2: Okay= O tay, in a sentence Arthur it otay. I don't mean to talk like an babbling fool but I just do it, without thinking. It is so bad Michael and I have started conversing in Arthur talk… Continue

Ever since the later part of my pregnancy, with all the drama I fell into a slump. I pretty much just vegged next to Arthur in front of the T.V. I have mentioned it before that my family has a big issue with the T.V on all the time. No I do not use it as a baby sitter, but it's just always on. Arthur is always in his room playing (since he likes his independence right now) but I'm just sitting in front of a T.V. that I don't watch. Most days I am busy with house work, but this week has been bad.… Continue

I just stopped by to greet another fellow Hoosier but now I have a craving for sweets. I guess if I cannot have one of your cookies I will have to settle for a Little Debbie brownie. Your pastries look delicious. Yum, thanks for sharing.

Happy Holidays!
