Fantastico Frangelico Cake
I am going to have some guests coming from Costa Rica and from Panama City, so I baked a cake. It has been a while since I have created anything in the kitchen. I know this is true, because several have told me. Today was the day. I modified a recipe and will name the [...]

Never Read Some Blogs When You Are Hungry
When I moved to my current theme, I placed my link section on one of the upper tabs and removed them from the sidebar. One of the drawbacks is that I have to remember to check on some of the sites I used to look at on a daily basis. Today, I went to my [...]

For dessert, I thought about pumpkin pie. [...]
