Mint Chocolate Cupcakes

February 4, 2010

Believe it or not, this cupcake, for me, was a lesson in self acceptance. It sounds ridiculous, but bear with me. For the past month I’ve been taking a digital photography seminar. I’ve always loved photography, but never had any clue what the heck I was doing. If I got a [...]

Hi there!  I’m Patti, a very grateful reader of Pink Apron.  Kelly is helping ME this holiday season by writing a guest post for my blog, Worth The Whisk, while I’m on vacation.  In return, I’m sharing with her readers how to make your own fresh marshmallows.  Yup, MARSHMALLOWS, isn’t that a cool idea?

Peanut Butter Blossoms

December 23, 2009

A few years back I went to a holiday cookie exchange with some girls from my college sorority. What was amusing about this particular cookie exchange was that the majority of the attendees brought one of two cookies: Chocolate-Oatmeal No-Bake Cookies and Peanut Butter Blossoms.  The No-Bake Cookies were new to me, but the [...]

Brown Sugar-Vanilla Bean Scones

December 17, 2009

I love having dinner with other food bloggers because you end up relating over things that may seem silly to non-bloggers.  One thing that often comes up is the fact that sometimes we just want to dig into our food and not stop to take a picture first.  Usually I show restraint and manage to [...]

My holiday baking has officially begun in earnest.  Last week I baked up some sweets for my holiday care package for Operation Baking Gals.  There was Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread baked in in jars and homemade plain and chocolate graham crackers that I dipped in dark and white chocolate respectively.
And this weekend I added to [...]

Foodbuzz 24, 24, 24: Dining Out in Minnesota: More than Wild Rice, Spam, and Lutefisk

November 29, 2009

Having been in Boston for eight+ years (excluding three summers during college) I am used to people ribbing me when they find out I grew up in Minnesota. First they will generally start speaking to me s-l-o-w-l-y in an exaggerated Minnesota accent á la Fargo, the movie. They will then often inquire whether [...]

Mission Minis’ Cinnamon Horchata Cupcakes

November 17, 2009

One of the smartest decisions I made at the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival was to ask the Mission Minis cupcake staff if they would care to share a recipe with me and my readers. I was expecting the answer to be no. Given how delicious their cupakes were I figured that perhaps they were made from [...]

Chocolate-Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Whipped Chevre Filling

November 13, 2009

It’s been a long time (too long) since I posted my last Fromage Fridays entry, since the end of August in fact.  Fret not, I’m just as in love with cheese as ever, life has just gotten in the way of me exploring it as much as I would like.  When I saw the Chavrie [...]

Caramel Apple Ice Cream & Happy News

October 27, 2009

Not only is fall one of my favorite seasons, Halloween is also a favorite holiday. Growing up October 31 was always a big deal in my family’s house. When I was in elementary school my parents began the tradition of throwing Halloween parties for my sister and me as well as our friends. The highlight [...]
