Wow! This is an amazing cake, combining two of my favorite things - chocolate and strawberries~

This baker tells us:

"Heart shaped devils food cake with chocolate buttercream frosting and ganache. Then topped with fresh strawberries and chocolate swirls. The perfect gift for your Valentine sweetie. This was a "tester" cake and my family loved it."

I'm sure they did!

Beautiful Brunch

I'm playing catch-up, as it's been a long time since I've posted to my blogs.  And, I wanted to share some of the wonderful brunch food we had at our Christmas gathering at my in-laws~


 The light on the oranges was irresistible~
 And the sushi, homemade by my sister-in-law, was fantastic.
As were the finger sandwiches.  All together, it made a very nice spread~

Another squash-related Thanksgiving disaster narrowly averted

Eeeek! Don't let this happen to you. (I can totally see that happening to me. . .)

This photographer tells us:

"We were roasting some squash for Thanksgiving. Half an hour in to the cooking, we heard a loud pop from the oven and found that the Pyrex roasting pan had blown apart. Took us the next 45 minutes to clean the glass shards out of the oven, including unscrewing the floor of the oven compartment."

Happy Thanksgiving!

This plate is so sensual and rich in color~ I love it!

Photo note:

"There was no traveling this Thanksgiving because of my broken ankle so I spent the day with family, just the 4 of us. It was a very quiet and peaceful Thanksgiving :) "
