Happy All Things Thursday!
So many things have been swirling about my head now that school is finished and summer is here. Here’s just a few:
1. Apparently, America has a whisking problem. The experts at America’s Test Kitchen gives us(and when I write us, I mean most definitely me) a lesson on how to whisk properly. Seriously, I don’t know how to whisk? Thanks ATK for making me feel super-inadequate in the kitchen.
2. Kinda excited about the movie Chef. Jon Favreau is a pretty funny guy and I appreciate that he’s doing a small, non-blockbuster film. Plus, it’s about good food, so…sign me up!
3. Dave and I have an amazing possible opportunity on deck. I don’t want to jinx it so my lips are sealed but if we it works out, it would make for a fantastic summer. Fingers crossed!
Now, onto the food…
This is what happens when you try to take chocolate away from women: Wellesley Fudge Cake. Sifting Focus
Moist Banana Bread with Blueberries? I’m gonna have to say “yes”. Reluctant Entertainer
I need to make Chicken Baked with Herbs and Garlic. Looks easy and tasty. Simply Delicious Food
Seeing how much I love Chinese food, I really should start making it at home: General Tso Cauliflower and Mongolian Beef. Bakeaholic Mama and Table For Two, respectively.
Since I made that splendidly delicious Lemon Velvet Cake I’ve got a hankering to make other types of cake, as well. Perhaps I should start with The Best White Cake Recipe Ever. I Bake He Shoots and Add A Pinch, respectively.
The next few months should be low-key and relaxing. I’m looking forward to a summer filled with interesting books, overworked AC units and vats of Basil Beerade. Should be fun.
How do you plan to spend your summer?
Live, travel, adventure, bless and don’t be sorry.
