My brother reminds me now and then that any dessert that isn’t chocolate is just a waste of calories. I think I may have very well proved him wrong with this Coconut Tres Leches Cake with Caramelized Bananas, and proving my brother wrong is something that happens once a decade or so…if that! Sorry, bro, you know I love you!
Marion Cunningham’s Overnight Waffles (Belgian)
Remember International Waffle day a few days ago? If you haven’t seen the post on Marion Cunningham’s Waffles, take a peek. Wonderful waffles, I’m sure, in a standard Waffle iron, but not so good as Belgian Waffles. I simply had to revisit that recipe and make them one more time with my suggested modifications – and here they are, in all their glory, adapted.
Marion Cunningham’s Overnight Yeasted Waffles
Today’s a special day, a holiday! It’s International Waffle Day! I thought I’d celebrate with Marion Marion Cunningham’s Overnight Yeasted Waffles. I’m somewhat of a Waffle freak aficionado, something few people know. That’s because waffles are a bit of a pain to make and I’m not a morning person.
Beef & Guinness Pies
This Beef & Guinness Stew is a wondrous thing – a rich, heady stew that rides the fine line between the richness of the gravy and slight bitterness of the Guinness; a stew that balances so closely neither sweet or bitter is detected; instead all melds into one glorious and delicious concoction. And of course for a special occasion like St. Paddy’s I couldn’t resist taking that stew and turning it into Beef & Guinness Pies.
Tuna Cakes
If you follow me, guys (if ya don’t, please do!) you probably know all about my baby Sis, the one I’ve poached so many recipes from. I told her I was updating this post on Tuna Cakes (originally posted in 2012) and do ya know what she said? Do ya? “Blech!” Not the word, the sound! Thank you, Liz!
