Citrus Almond Pound Cake

I have had the fixings for this cake for nearly 2 weeks. Which means it has probably been 3+. Always add more time when discussing the passage of time…and me. Much like when doctors ask you about alcohol and/or caffeine consumption. They double whatever you say. Because we lie. Or miscalculate. Or misjudge. Did you knowContinue reading “Citrus Almond Pound Cake”

Fizzy Bees Knees – A Gin Cocktail

Remind me to never move south of the Mason Dixon line. Too hot, humid, and sticky for this gal. Plus, I haven’t learned how to mosey yet so I would just be the sweaty odd duck down there, walking and talking much too fast. I could get behind the biscuit situation, however. And caramel cake.Continue reading “Fizzy Bees Knees – A Gin Cocktail”

Lemon Raspberry Ricotta Cake

I found myself making this cake twice in the period of 6 days. I had my reasons … if they were good and legitimate I am unsure, however cake was the result…so, honestly who cares. Cake number one was more of a belated birthday cake of sorts … I made the proper month but wasContinue reading “Lemon Raspberry Ricotta Cake”

Lemon Buttermilk Popsicles

Seriously, she is beautiful.Continue reading “Lemon Buttermilk Popsicles”

Strawberry Jam Lemon Bars

I can not leave well enough alone. Never have. Well enough…doesn’t mean it’s OK. It means that there might be room for improvement. Even though attempts at this have real repercussions and can ultimately ruin and unravel ‘well enough’, but what if… There are always two ways the road can diverge from ‘well enough’. ItContinue reading “Strawberry Jam Lemon Bars”

Buttermilk Lemon Chess Pie

Did you spring break? Break for spring. I am still waiting on spring…but that is another story…I won’t talk about the snow that greeted me this morning that had me silently weeping and cursing mother nature and wishing I lived in where snow was not in the vernacular after the calendar moved beyond winter. (sideContinue reading “Buttermilk Lemon Chess Pie”

Lemon Tart

I have taken a bit of a break. Unexpected and unintentional…. Nights where I would normally plop down and flip on the TV to something mundane and focus most of my attention on editing photos – just a bit of a tweak…up-ing the contrast or brightness – not a whole lot, because in all honesty,Continue reading “Lemon Tart”

Lemon Blueberry Cake

Tomorrow is Labor Day (well when you read this, it will be Labor Day) … So happy Labor Day! Can’t believe summer is unofficially over, seems crazy. But I like fall, so bring it on. How did you fill your holiday weekend? A final pool party, trip to the beach, or lake? Cookouts and cornhole? Continue reading “Lemon Blueberry Cake”
