Here are the things this cookie does NOT contain:. I wasn't a ...

Paris Sweets in Seattle. Cooking my way through Dorie Greenspan's Paris Sweets, plus other treats I come up with. Sunday, May 1, 2011. Chocolate Mousse Cake for Maggie. I'm a firm believer that cakes are for special occasions. And truthfully, the kind of cakes I make really should be reserved for special occasions only, for the health of everyone involved. Last week, I had the opportunity to dust off my cake ring and offset spatula for my friend Maggie's last day at work. What are you going to do next?

Paris Sweets in Seattle. Cooking my way through Dorie Greenspan's Paris Sweets, plus other treats I come up with. Sunday, September 19, 2010. Chocolate Strawberry Birthday Cake. Speaking of moving, the cake matches my new furniture quite well, dont you think? I was really pleased with the way the cakes turned out; I was afraid they would be too tender to be sliced and handled, but these were very sturdy after a quick chill in the fridge.

The last time I visited my grandparents in China, my grandmother took me by the hand, looked me straight in the eye, and said "You know, you're almost twenty-five. It's time to get married.".

Paris Sweets in Seattle. Cooking my way through Dorie Greenspan's Paris Sweets, plus other treats I come up with. Wednesday, May 4, 2011. Exploring My Southern Roots, Part I: Peach Cobbler. Lately, however, I'm realizing I should extend my Southern upbringing to desserts. There's a school of thought that Texas is not part of "the South". I don't want to hear it.
