One a penny, two a penny–just in time for Easter–hot cross buns! Did anyone else sing that song in grade school?? Anyone, anyone? Okay, no. Well it’s okay, because Noel looked at me a little weird when I walked around singing it the whole day I was working on the buns. Apparently my elementary school [...]

So before the earnest onset of the great plague of 2009, I had a real reason to celebrate! When I checked my email after leaving the gym on Tuesday night (yes I know I have an email problem if I can’t make it out of the parking lot of the gym without checking my email [...]

So in my office, we have this great thing called Weekly Snack Society. We are ruled by a benevolent dictator (The Director) who sets up a calendar givining all members of the society the responsibility of bringing snacks to work on a given Wednesday.

So I had some time off before the fourth, and I knew I just HAD to bake something. But what exactly? We were having a small gathering of the usual suspects on the 3rd, but we were also leaving for vacation early the next morning, so I knew I didn’t want to make something elaborate [...]
