Exploring the world of food and sweet treats one delicious bite at a time. Sunday, August 29, 2010. A much needed night out. So i had a day off, and another wonderful day with someone visiting from hawaii! Russ was visiting from hawaii to interview for a job up in portland. luckily for me that meant more food experiences! This is the front of podnah's and my friend russ, charming isn't he? I thought the name of the place was very deceiving. seemingly indian, yet southern bbq.intriguing. All relevant ques...

baking with style: Love
http://bakingwithstyledesserts.blogspot.com/2012/02/love.html
All things baked, combining style with desserts. Thursday, February 9, 2012. Valentine's day is coming up and some women absolutely love this holiday and look forward to it. Me on the other hand not so much. This may come out cynical but I'm just being honest - it's rather a little over-rated. What do you think? With that said, I absolutely LOVE baking it has become my new passion in life. So I decided to create something that included my love for cheesecake. Who doesn't love cheesecake? 1 tablespoon of ...

All things baked, combining style with desserts. Tuesday, January 24, 2012. Some time has passed since my last post and I really wanted to create something personal. And I think I got it right. Banana chocolate chip cake with Nutella frosting. I love bananas and chocolate and of course nutella. So what better way then to combine all of it together! Do you have any self-discoveries that has changed your life? Perhaps you can bake this cake and tell me your story! Serves 8-10 (2 8" round cake pans). Beat b...

baking with style: A Stylish Twist
http://bakingwithstyledesserts.blogspot.com/2011/12/stylish-twist.html
All things baked, combining style with desserts. Tuesday, December 13, 2011. I love it when you can take something simple and traditional by putting a spin on it. Just like in fashion, many people twist their own style so why not in baking. I certainly think it can be done. Since it's cold outside, my latest style twist is combining a simple wool sweater tunic and pairing it with printed tights - whether it's flowers, geometric shapes or an animal print. Pick what suits your personality! Spiced Carrot Ca...

baking with style: Birthday party!
http://bakingwithstyledesserts.blogspot.com/2012/03/birthday-party.html
All things baked, combining style with desserts. Tuesday, March 13, 2012. Recently, I celebrated my dearest friend, Janet Mock's. I also realized after making a few rounds of cakes and cupcakes that the addition of buttermilk helps with the moistness of the cake. It truly makes a difference. Bake these cupcakes the next time you have a birthday party or any party! I'm sure they will be a huge hit! 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter. 2 cups cake flour. 1 tsp baking soda. 1 1/3 cup granulated sugar.

All things baked, combining style with desserts. Sunday, December 18, 2011. It's the season for celebrating and many of us get together to enjoy great company and delicious food. With all the holiday parties, it's also a time to get decked out and look your absolute best. For their "The Muppets" collection and immediately snatched a bottle so I can have them for the holidays. I'm sure many of you shoe lovers out there can agree with me that Louboutins. In the end, I was able to pull of something sparkle-...
