Jennifer is up visiting again, which means we’re experimenting with desserts that all three of us can eat again. Last time, you
got cinnamon rolls everyone can eat. This time, you get chocolate mousse. We’re calling this a “base recipe”–we’re already sitting around the kitchen brainstorming ways to dress it up, add other flavors, and make it uber-pretty. But, to be clear, it was really good on it’s own, too.
| Sometimes you find you have lots of half-and-half left over from some other project, and you ask yourself, “What should I do with this? Use it in tea? Make alfredo sauce? Or, most delicious-sounding of all, make some ice cream?” And if you’re me, let’s be honest, the answer is pretty often gonna be ice cream. 🙂 |  |
We recently bought a large box of Pink Lady apples, and since they’re a lovely baking apple I’ve been running a bunch of experiments.
Here is the fruit of the first round–baked apples! We really like them, and if they aren’t that much like traditional baked apples, well, they’re still baked and they’re still a treat :-).
I’m back home and back inventing. We love greek food around here, but good vegetarian gyros can be hard to find. So, I invented these. I really did pretty much start from scratch.
