Agave Lemon Cake

February 8, 2014 By Laura 11 Comments

Lemon quick bread baked in a bundt pan and made with agave syrup

I had mixed feelings about whether I should participate in #ElleAPalooza. I did not know Elle, who it turns out was actually named LeeAnn, but I most definitely knew her blog, Elle’s New England Kitchen.

Meyer Lemon Marshmallows with Tuaca Liquor

Meyer Lemon Cocktail Marshmallows are a fun treat for an adult party, but if you take the word “cocktail” out, the alcohol is minimal enough to serve to kids too (at least half of the booze is cooked off, if not more).  Right about now I should be sipping some other cocktail, more suited for…

Orange Marshmallows

Orange Marshmallows, with or without chocolate chips sprinkled on top, are great for eating out of hand and sending in a care package to loved ones (in colder, drier weather).

Hi! I’m Laura and I am a recovering history major who has re-channeled all of my passion for learning about the history of different countries to learning about their food culture. That doesn’t mean every dish on here is strictly authentic, but it does mean that even my adaptations are not undertaken lightly.
