Chocolate Decadence
Today’s dessert at The Barking Frog; lunch with Lara.
Elvis Has Entered The Kitchen
This was one of my favorite childhood sandwiches, but I think it was because it was my dad’s favorite. I didn’t learn about the connection between Elvis and peanut butter-and-banana until a few years ago. No bacon on ours! And not grilled!
Preparing Chocolate Pecan Pie
New Year’s Day we attend two annual parties; one is a “pie party” (bring a pie, eat pie, take home pie). For a variety of reasons, I went “simple” this year — and punted to what has become a classic variation on pecan pie. This is for folks who like chocolate and who think traditional pecan pies are too sweet; this is not a “sweet” pie. (Note: my pecan pie is not too sweet, either – it’s more expensive than your average pecan pie because I use more pecans and less filling.)
