Pear Crisp with Ginger Whipped Cream
Ah, the crisp fall air is taking me away to apple-cinnamon candle land, where children frolic in the leaves and pumpkin lattes rule the menus...
Almond Peach Upside-Down Cake
Oh summer, you are disappearing before my eyes. Not that I mind too much — the heat really gets on my last nerve. It’s just the fact that time goes faster and faster, stopping for no one. I’d better get all my patio happyhouring in before it snows. All right, that...

Chocolate Strawberry and Champagne Cupcakes
I hope you had a fan-freakin’tastic Valentine’s Day...
