Growing Up Surrounded By Citrus

La Verne Nursery I grew up about 35 miles east of Los Angeles, in a small city called La Verne. When I was a kid, the city and surrounding areas were full of citrus groves. We would play in the groves, and pick up the falls for juicing. My dad worked for a large nursery, […]

Lemon Bars

When Life Hands You Lemons, Make Lemon Bars There is never a bad time to make Lemon Bars. Lemons are available year round, so there are always some hanging on your tree (or in the bin at the supermarket). This delightful treat is both sweet and tart at the same time. This recipe makes enough […]

Tropical Bread Pudding

Bread Pudding is great on a lot of levels…. Mostly, it’s delicious…. sure, it’s old-fashioned, and the fabulous pastry chefs of Paris generally don’t bother with it (silly of them, if you ask me). But the taste is homey, comforting, warm, and uncomplicated. It’s also pretty versatile… If you have bread, eggs and milk you […]

Citrus Coconut Tea Cakes

Citrus Coconut Tea Cakes In my never ending quest to find yummy Kumquat recipes, I found this delightful Citrus Bundt Cake recipe. (Yes, a Kumquat Quest might seem strange… but… you have to collect something…). My daughter loves it when I bake it as mini-bundt cakes… they seem fancy, yet not so fussy that you […]

Best Rhubarb Bread Recipe (with Streusel!)

This really is the Best Rhubarb Bread Recipe... especially since it’s topped in Streusel, and it tastes like CAKE! You see spring means Rhubarb, and I love Rhubarb. I love the tart taste that Rhubarb has, I love the texture, and I love the pretty color. Rhubarb reminds me of my Oma (she let me […]

Ginger Apricot Sandwich Cookies

Once again, cookie jar is empty (I think elves come into my house on midnight raids), and I ask everyone in earshot…. “what kind of cookies should I make?” Oddly enough…. “anything without chocolate” was the response. (WHAT?  Who are you people??) “something new” (HA! A challenge!) So I start digging through cookbooks (yes, I have […]

Raspberry Ripple Cake

It’s another gray day in the Bay Area, so I needed something bright to cheer me up. Raspberry Ripple Cake did the trick. It’s the perfect treat for a dreary afternoon. It’s a fairly simple Sour Cream cake, but it has layers (ripples) of tart Raspberry running through it. Since it uses frozen Raspberries, you […]

Peppermint Patty Brownies

I dropped off a pan of still-warm Peppermint Patty Brownies in the teacher’s lounge at school today. Turns out, teachers don’t like being called “guinea pigs”, they prefer the term “beta testers”. Sigh…(Like it makes a difference…) Especially when it comes to Brownies with Peppermint Patties baked inside them. Yup, rich gooey brownies covered in […]

The Angry Baker Doesn’t Live on Baked Goods Alone…

  You can’t just eat cake (well, you CAN)…. sometimes, you just want to have a glass (ok, or two) of wine. But, taking wine along can be a problem…. Picnics, Ski Trips, Vacations, Beach Parties (any Parties), Wedding Showers…. pretty much anywhere…(well, not school functions, the line MUST be drawn somewhere)…you can’t just walk […]

Double Chocolate Raspberry Cookies

Double Chocolate Raspberry Cookies These cookies came out of a conversation with an online friend (do you call them conversations if you never hear their voice? It’s all on Facebook….) Anyway… I was rattling around one day with Baker’s Block (yes, it is so a thing… Baker’s Block has been well documented by the Baker’s […]

White Chocolate and Cranberry Muffins

While making these “Holiday” White Chocolate and Cranberry Muffins I get visions of my kids… all sweet in their jammies and slippers… waiting patiently at the breakfast table…. Smiling… Ready to start the day… plans to hold hands as we skip through the meadows in search of the perfect Christmas Tree. Cue the choir of […]
