These were sooo good. Light and fluffy, a little sticky and super lemon fresh! The texture was almost like angel food cake but still had a little more everyday cake to it. Not sure if that made any sense, but they were yummy. Next time I will do it as the recipe said and not use wrappers, but since I was bringing these to a BBQ I figured it would be easier to have the paper on them. Oh and the glaze was optional, but I highly recommend it as it really kicked up the lemon zing! Recipe from Cupcakes! By Elinor Klivans. The pumpkin spice ones are also super good from this book.

Made some pizza again, and this time it was a nice and thin crispy crust! That is my favorite kind so am super happy it worked at home.

In other news I have been knitting a bit on a poncho. Not the quick pace of old but it is coming along and should be ready to wear come next fall I still really do like to knit so am happy I have started it up again even if it is not that often.

Check out some of the soap goodies I made for this years spring sale.
More on suds.

In honor of the Academy Awards last night I made some festive pops. Only they came out completely disgusting! I blame the excess salt in the recipe really. I knew as I added the salt according to the directions that it was way too much but I did it anyway. Oops! They were like frozen salt sticks instead of popcorn, gross! But they looked pretty and the chocolate drizzle and dulce de leche was very yummy.

So luckily I had extra sauce and made little Bon bons with that. My sisters idea to make these babies, brilliant, she saved the day. Much better!!! These were really yummy and super easy to make the dulce de leche and soooo creamy and tasty! Ah the magic that is sweetened condensed milk

Check it out! We got some snow in these parts again. Just when I thought spring was coming early, it was 55-60 degrees here yesterday after all. Crazy weather!

So, this past weekend I made polichinkis (Serbian for crêpes) and they were super yummy I was going to make this crazy crepe cake but ended up eating them like I did as a kid instead! Maybe one day I will make the cake, but for now a little strawberry jam or apple butter was fabulous!

I also tried making some banana ice cream from some bananas that were getting too ripe to hold on to for long. And since sadly my oven is on the fritz I could not make banana bread. All I did was mash up the bananas and add some half and half to the mix and threw it in the ice cream maker. Came out way yummy and no extra sugar is a very nice thing. You probably don’t really need the half and half but I wanted to make sure it tasted creamy.

It was pretty tasty stuff I must say!

Cranberry Molasses Cookies

Dark Chocolate Chip Comfort Cookies

Cinnamon Roll Cookies

My favorite were the Cranberry Molasses Cookies,very easy to get a yummy gingerbread-ie cookie without having to roll out dough and cut shapes and frost!!!

The Dark Chocolate Chip Comfort Cookies have a touch of peanut butter in them so they were not overly chocolatey!!!

And the Cinnamon Roll Cookies, I did the cheat thing and used a premade sugar cookie dough Also was so warm at that point and I did not wait long enough to re-chill the dough that they flattened out a bit, but still tasted good!!!

I had my annual Thanksgiving Craft Show this weekend at Holy Trinity Church and so I had to come up with some inventory quick

Today am sharing pics of the reeces pieces soaps I made. I love making the little bites and seeing the middle. And they smell of loverly chocolate and peanut butter. Fun Fun Fun.
