I am finally getting around to posting the photo above. We had some friends over to watch the SuperBowl game on Sunday night and I have been promising to bake something so long that most had decided I had forgotten how.
I will have to admit, I almost have. The Pecan Prailine Cheesecake above, didn’t come [...]

I was up at the Frontera yesterday and bought some tortillas that I can’t get in David. While I was there, I noticed that they have a flavor of the Dos Pinos Ice Cream that I haven’t found in David.
If you find it in David, let me know. It is Crema Irlandesa. This is my [...]

I always buy this Bacon Roll package at PriceSmart. It may be in other grocery stores as well.

After exchanging emails with Vi, we decided that no child could pass up a chocolate with banana cream [...]

Last Saturday, I had a pizza for lunch at my now favorite pizza spot in David. Pino always gives us a couple small slices of bread that he makes to tide you over until the pizza comes. I think this bread is a real treat. It has the hint of sourdough, but I am not [...]
