Alfajores a la Tattoo

Well, it’s December 20th and I’m starting to run out of holiday steam. I think my Sunday afternoon of cookie baking took a little bit more out of me then I expected and I’m having a hard time waking up today. I need to a nap, a l.o.n.g, snuggled-under-warm-quilts kind of nap! I did have [...]

Cupcakes with an Asian Flair

Chocolate Cupcake with Pum Wine Frosting

I’m entering my Orange Iced Plum Cupcakes in Sugar High Friday’s Sweet Asian Invasion April event hosted by Amrita of La Petite Boulangette . Let’s face it Asian Cuisine is not something I do very often so I have limited experience and anything beyond Sesame Seed Oil and Wonton Skins is foreign territory. My husband [...]
