Apple Cider Cream Pie

I am back!

I know I haven’t made a blog post in a very long time.  As you probably know by now, I sell Gourmet Homemade Marshmallows on Etsy.  This past December was busy beyond expectations.  The up side of this was that it was very flattering to have customers so confident in me!  The down side was that I had no time to do any holiday baking!  😦  (Don’t think for a minute that I didn’t EAT a ton of baked goods that others made though!)

What better way to warm up than with a bowl of rice pudding.  Continue reading

Cookies N’ Cream Cake

Almond Peach Tart

Peach Tart3Not long ago I spent the day with a friend and her family peach picking at a New Jersey orchard.  While I have been berry and apple picking in the past, this was my first time picking peaches.  It was a hot but fun day, and we both got plenty of peaches to whip up some baked goods a few days later.
