Chocolate scones are delicious–Chocolate Chip Scones are a scone take on chocolate chip cookies and Quadruple Chocolate Scones are just an intensely chocolate scone. Breakfast, afternoon snack, dessert–they work for any occasion! Affiliate links have been used to link to items I am discussing. What does quick bread say to you? Sure I know that loads…
Laura Went To Pittsburgh, And All She Left Us Was… Deep Chocolate Sables
But Deep Chocolate Sables are not so bad, no? This is the 3rd of the trio of cookies I am taking to our various relatives this weekend. This cookie is seriously chocolatey without being super rich. They invite comparison to World Peace Cookies, but honestly they would lose that match. But they are still a…
The Much Delayed, Somewhat Anticlimactic But In No Way Disappointing Trio Of Chocolate Mousse Cake
This has been an insane winter. In the space of 2 months, I moved into a new home (that we built), my dog and companion of my entire adult life, the last 13 years, died, my grandma died less than a month later. And I got strep throat–for the first time in 20 years–postponing our…
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…

Some Kitchen Photos & Some Inadvertantly Gooey Peppermint Brownies

Mint Chocolate Cupcakes For John
John and I rarely celebrate birthdays on the actual birthday. When it comes to the kids, we are usually trying to coordinate a party for family if not something bigger. Poor Sammy’s (whose birthday falls during hunting season) birthday was off by almost a month this year–but she was turning 2 so it is not…
Chocohotopots, Poofed!
Are there any food writers “in your life” that you have read so much and so often–and you like so much–that when you are cooking you frequently imagine what they would have to say about what you were doing? No? That’s just me? Well at any rate, Nigella Lawson is one such for me. I…
Best Peanut Butter Blondie EVER
You know I am not a fan of proclaiming various cookies or desserts The Best Ever.But my gosh if this does not come close to the Best Peanut Butter Blondie EVER. Even if Lisa Yockelson calls it something else! (Laura’s note June 7, 2014: this recipe is so awesome I made it again, with better…
