I was torn about whether to post this cake. You always want whatever you post to be your best effort or as nice as you know you could make it. But, knowing that I just made this cake, the soonest I would re-make it is probably next fall. And there is NOTHING wrong with the…
Great Grandma Kelly’s Jam Cake
Admit it, you think this is my great grandmother’s jam cake. Oh no my friend, this is my grandmother’s great grandmother’s jam cake. My mom and I did the math and we are figuring this recipe is at least 130 years old. And this is the best part, check out what my mom emailed me…
Laura’s Orange Scented Take on Shirley’s Even Greater American Pound Cake
As far as I can tell every baker I know–or every cookbook-collecting baker, maybe not my mom who buys about 1 cookbook per year–has run out and bought a copy of Shirley Corriher’s Bakewise. So how could I do otherwise? I got a good deal on it, which was happy given that I try to…
The Hilarity Of Grief Or How Many Bundt Cakes Is Too Many Bundt Cakes? (Double Chocolate Peppermint Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake)
Some people react to death and the trappings of death (funerals, etc) in a very somber, dignified fashion. And some people crack jokes, even while crying. My family would fall in the camp of the latter. I think I have laughed more this last week than I have the entire previous year. I’m not entirely…

I love my dogs. I am a dog person, and their presence in my life has always been non-negotiable, so of course it was inevitable that my husband should feel the same. He might not have had dogs as a young, single person, but he understood why I did (I had one dog, Loki,who is…
A Streak Comes To An End: Glazed Vanilla Bean Cream Cake
I have had such luck with my Nordic Ware bundt pans that I think the fault is mine for even attempting this cake in a bundt pan. In my defense, I have had other recipes which called for parchment paper in tube pans come out fine in a bundt sans parchment paper, but this time…
Cinnamon Chip Bundt Cake For Playgroup
I have been unable to host yet for my playgroup thanks to our living arrangement—which I know is terrible manners, and so I just keep offering to bring food. My dirty little secret of course is that I love baking for groups of people and am pretty excited for the day when I am able…
Baking At Mom’s House: Chocolate Sour Cream Bundt Cake
Do you do much baking or cooking at other people’s homes? For the most part, I do not, but I do at my mom’s house and at my in-laws’.Probably because these are the 2 locations I am most likely to be hanging out at for a while and pitching in with the cooking, baking and…
