Vacation!

Hello Everyone! I've been vacationing this last week in Eastern Washington. The average day had a high of 99 degrees. We spent almost everyday Jet skiing on the Columbia river. It was wonderful; the wind blowing in your hair, the occasional refreshing splash, and of course the feel of flying across the water, barely skimming the top. Well, in my opinion a vacation can't be complete without some sort of culinary adventure! Boy, did I have one! I tried my first escargot!! It was delicious! These were sauteed in a scrumptious white wine and garlic sauce topped with caps. YUM! Not at all what I expected!

Also, I had heard of this charming little rustic French bakery nestled in the rolling hills of Cashmere, WA; Anjou Bakery http://www.anjoubakery.com/ . I just had to see it! So, on the last day, my brother in law took my sister and me to check it out. It was delightful! Their cinnamon rolls are actually a puff pastry in stead of a sweet dough. They were so light and melt in your mouth. Their bread pudding was to die for!! Well, despite how wonderful it was, I'm glad to be home!

To Begin with..........


Have you ever sat in a small town cafe, sipping your caramel latte, munching on a hot apple turnover, watching out the front window as people run strategically through the pouring rain? Or have you walked through a field, with your special someone, on a scorching hot summer's day, licking a delicious blackberry ice cream cone? Maybe you've just immersed your culinary senses in a Thanksgiving adventure, ending on a giant piece of homemade pumpkin pie, smothered in fresh whipped cream? Through every dessert I prepare, I hope to send you on a resplendent journey! Follow me as I overtake my dream: As I work to open my own bakeshop!
