A first anniversary celebration
This will never get old.
Summer blackberry clafoutis
Cinnamon and sugar palmiers
Sea salt caramel brownies
Smores bars
The measuring cup on vacation
Hot mess cake balls with WAY too much sugar involved
Key lime pie for Grandma Fry's 80 big ones
Caramel cheesecake bars
Banana cream pie for Uncle Jim's undisclosed big ones
When chocolate met pistachios...
They made dark chocolate and pistachio cookies topped with sea salt. YUM.
Pistachios are highly underrated in cookies. They're my new favorite baking nut.
Apple pie a la mode
Herb, garlic, and parmesan focaccia
Apple walnut bread
And last, but not least, a few culinary moments.
Rosemary porterhouse steak grilled by Greg (being sniffed by my Dad)
Most of which was quickly devoured with bread from the bakery (being sniffed by Greg)
And finally, with extra tomatoes from the garden, I ventured into ketchup making.
Curry ketchup to be exact. The results were quite pleasing (and spicy).
This concludes my American flip book. Stay tuned for a European flip book containing all of the calories I plan on consuming in the next two weeks. All of the bread in Paris shall be mine! Okay, maybe not all of it. But as much as I can eat while still buttoning my pants.
Oh, I forgot my favorite photo...Greg's early birthday treat. A personal banana cream pie.
