Oh, how I love this time of year. You get to spend a little extra time with your family and friends and of course, eat your heart out. Here are some tasty treats I’ve gotten ahold of throughout the holidays:
I had seen the callout for Saratoga Peanut Butter Company in Everyday with Rachael Ray a […]

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 […]
Being Thankful
November 29th, 2008
It’s a pretty obvious fact that our country is a bit unstable at the moment. But letting the sinking economy affect your holiday cheer isn’t going to do any good.
Instead, we should all be thankful that even though there are so many awful things going on in the world, many of us including myself […]
Atlanta Cupcake Tour, Part 1 of 7: The Highland Bakery
October 21st, 2008
Hi there!
Sorry for being gone so long, but Taste Tester and I were away visiting some friends in Atlanta last week. I thought I could pack it all into one post but there is just too much to write since we visited 6 different bakeries over 4 1/2 days. So every day for the […]
Xooro Churro
July 14th, 2008
This photo of a crazy looking churro and the tube it came in was found on flickr. It’s called the “Mississippi” and it costs a mighty $4. It’s a peanut butter filled churro covered with chocolate and peanuts. The photographer calls the tubes “wasteful” and while I appreciate good package design, I have to agree… […]
Hero Sized Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie
July 10th, 2008
The above cookie is from Columbine in NYC.
This picture found on flickr kind of made me re-realize how much I love cookies. I think cookies are the sweet treat I crave the most. And this one looks just about my speed - lots of chips, some nuts thrown in… it’s hard to tell from the […]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream Balls
July 9th, 2008
This is more of an idea than a recipe since there are no exact amounts given. And rather than write it out like usual, I decided to make a cartoon. This idea is based on a recipe for Amaretti Ice Cream Balls by Rachel Ray. If I were you, I’d make it with Nigella’s Chocolate […]
Fancy Food Show, Part II: Feed Your Soul Cookies
July 5th, 2008
How have I never mentioned Feed Your Soul on this site before?
Before attending the Fancy Food Show, I took a look through the long list of exhibitors and made notes of the booths I definitely wanted to see. I thought my list was pretty thorough, but was still surprised to see certain companies as […]
Rachel Ray’s Bottom of the Peanut Butter Jar Recipe Video
June 22nd, 2008
Rather than making you read over the weekend here’s a clip for you to watch from Rachel Ray’s daytime show where she demonstrates how to make two dessert sauces from the bottom of the peanut butter jar. The two sauces are a Peanut Butter Chocolate Sauce and Peanut Butter Caramel Sauce.
I know people that […]
Frozen Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana Loaf
June 11th, 2008
Here’s an interesting alternative to ice cream as a “stay cool” dessert for the summer. And by interesting I mean, delicious.
The base of this dessert is made with the simple combination of semi-sweet chocolate, banana puree, creamy peanut butter and heavy cream. It’s frozen and topped with chopped nuts.
What I love about this recipe is […]
