Make anything good this weekend?
My favorite place on earth: The Amargosa Valley.

Re: Sunday baking/cooking
I'm excited because I actually got really into it tonight and made some really good stuff.
Mini butternut squash chicken pot pies, mini berry walnut tarts, and chocolate orange sandwich cookies.
Tea Time for Lulu
Yes!
Eggplant Parmsean for tonight
Posole is in the crockpot for tomorrow's dinner. I will make some homemade lime corn tortilla chips tomorrow.
I cooked the ground turkey and additions for sloppy joes for dinner on Wed. That will go with some pepper jack mac n cheese.
No baking this time. I will probably do that this upcoming Friday (my day off) while I wait for the DSL AT&T guy to get here.
These sound good. Were they?
I have yet to assemble them because the center is kind of a whipped cream and I'm afraid to put it together until right before I eat them in case it un-whips. But separately each tastes freaking amazing. So I have a feeling they will be to die for.

Oh yeah, can you share that recipe? Sounds wonderful.
I finally finished putting them together and the overwhelming consensus was that they are fantastic.
I'll do you one better! I'm going to post a blog entry about them WITH pictures. I'll let you know when I type that up (probably Wednesday since I'm swamped with HW right now).

I think those were my brownies. I omitted the walnuts and used Ghiradelli cocoa powder. It totally makes a difference!
I made those again this weekend, along with a Cranberry Vodka Cooler and crab puffs for my party.
Lighthouse State Beach, Santa Cruz.
