Fudgy Yummy Brownies

Jason and I had some friends over on Saturday night- we dined on vegetarian asian food (I got Jason to enjoy tofu!), followed by some Wii fun and a few rounds of Apples to Apples and- of course- brownies for dessert.

Week Night Dinner- Risotto

Risotto always seemed like a very intimidating dish to make. After all, I first heard about it from Kitchen Nightmares and/or Hell's Kitchen where Chef Ramsay is constantly yelling at chef's, 'you can't even make a risotto!' It sounded like a simple- for elegant and trained chefs only- type of dish. Nevertheless, a few months ago I bought arborio rice with an amateur cook's dream of making this dish at home.

Birthday Cupcakes

I'm baaack to blogging. August and September were brutal work months- literally 10-12 hour days almost everyday for most of August and most of September. And I just didn't have the energy to bake and blog about during that time.  But I think things are back to normal and that means coming home at decent hours and time and energy to bake, cook and blog! Oh yey!
