What I'm Reading This Week #35
Howdy do and happy last Friday of August! I hope you had a good week and if your weather was like ours, it was FINALLY under 93 degrees. Don't get me wrong, I know sweater weather isn't here but it was nice to not have the AC working overtime (set to 76) starting at 11am every day! It was nice to not walk out to water the garden and walk into a wall of humidity so I will take what I can get. Speaking of which: With this 3" San Marzano , I shall be able to make enough sauce to cover 7.3 spaghetti noodles. 😒 Now let's get to: How to Stock Your Pantry for Quick & Easy Meals in Minutes (Ooh, I need to crockpot some black beans for some sweet potato black bean burritos.)

Tough choice here but I think I will have to go with the first thing that comes to mind. I won't say where it is because I don't want a bunch of people flocking there but there is this chocolate mousse nutella mousse concoction called a Nebula in a certain part of New England that is so good it truly makes my eyes roll back in my head on the first bite.
ReplyDeleteWe recently had a dessert at an Italian restaurant that was a bread pudding made out of the chocolate Italian Christmas cake - it was really good! A bit like a lava cake. But my fave dessert is probably homemade peach ice cream.
ReplyDeleteBoy, I'm trying to think of a restaurant that I've had a super dessert at and I'm drawing a blank. The first thing that came to mind for spectacular was my mom's strawberry roll cake that is out of this world! Second to that is an apple cake. I've made homemade eclairs with chou paste which I have to say are pretty fabulous, but I wouldn't say it's top of the tops.
ReplyDeleteThe Gingerbread pudding cake from Bon appetit magazine is one of the only desserts to truly stop me in my tracks. Years ago I tagged along with a friend to her co-worker's "dessert party." Everything served was a dessert and it was NOT a potluck. This woman had made all the desserts herself and there were many of them displayed all around living room, dining room and kitchen of her gorgeously restored Craftsman-style house. I tracked down the recipe online and have made it several times. It's always a hit.
