Have you heard some of the mean things being said about peanut butter? If you’re scared by the Salmonella rumors, read on and rest assured that you don’t need to fear your favorite spread.
A member of The National Peanut Board sent me an informative message regarding the PB salmonella outbreak. She let me know that, […]

I love Apple
January 28th, 2009
Hey everyone that was on the edge of their seat about the fate of my computer! Well none of you probably were, but since I wrote about it before, I thought I’d follow up: Apple fixed my computer! Apparently it needed a new logic board, which Taste Tester translated as being the brain of the […]
Marshmallow Sludge Bars
January 22nd, 2009
I’m not sure how or why, but somehow a free free sample issue of Cuisine at Home Magazine made it to my mailbox. This was a lucky occurrence however, as it’s quite a nice magazine. The recipes are well written and easy to follow, not to mention tasty looking. One of the recipes that came […]
Jer’s Cara Mella Peanut Butter Bar Review
January 15th, 2009
I found out about Jer’s at the Fancy Food Show in NYC last June. As someone who writes a blog focused only on chocolate and peanut butter it was shocking to find that somehow I hadn’t known about the company that only produces products made with chocolate and peanut butter. How did this happen? Clearly […]
Barefoot Contessa’s Chocolate Cupcake & Peanut Butter Frosting Mix Review
January 14th, 2009
I’ve been curious about Barefoot Contessa’s Chocolate Cupcake & Peanut Butter Frosting Mix for a while now. I prefer to bake from scratch but in a pinch, having a boxed mix to fall back on can be really helpful. My standbys are Betty Crocker’s Super Moist Cake Mixes which fulfill their promise of producing super […]
Cupcake Party at Cafe Gorgeous
January 13th, 2009
Three posts in a row. Woohoo!
I just discovered a really sweet comment on my guest post at Cupcakes Take The Cake. Pauline of the blog Cafe Gorgeous used my cupcake hats pattern to make these awesome cupcakes with a group of kids!
Of the cupcakes she says, “What did they taste like? Who cares! They […]
Chocolate, Peanut Butter & Life
January 12th, 2009
Wow, it feels great to post two days in a row… :) Feels like it’s been a while since I’ve managed that!
Make no mistake, the book Chocolate, Peanut Butter & Life by Luann Dunnuck isn’t a cookbook, or at least not primarily.
The book’s summary states, “Invigorating and inspiring, Chocolate, Peanut Butter and Life reminds […]
Choco-Peanut Butter Banana Breakfast Strudel
January 11th, 2009
The caption for this recipe states, “nobody skips breakfast when flaky crescent rolls hold layers of chocolate and banana filling.” They forgot to mention the peanut butter, but it’s okay - I’m too mesmerized by the deliciously sweet swirls in that pic to care too much.
I bet this would also be great served warm […]
Cooking Light’s Swag Bars
January 9th, 2009
Well, I am sad to report that my computer is still on the fritz, however we remain hopeful and pray for a swift recovery.
Taste Tester is letting me borrow his computer as I often feel withdrawal when I’m away from the blog. I noticed a CPB recipe in the latest issue of Cooking Light that […]
