Back with Just a bite of Pina Colada bar

OK so clearly I haven't written anything here in a while, I really want to make an effort and start blogging again. Thought I'd come back with something simple that really doesn't get much attention. So the most common no bake bar usually involves date and chocolate. I've made that kind, often, and so has the rest of the internet. These bars are more about the pucker, still sugar free and still raw and just really simple to make. 1 cup dried unsweetened pineapple 1 cup raw cashews 1/4 cup untoasted coconut, plus more to cover zest of a lemon salt Start by soaking pineapple in enough warm water to cover.

Ode to Melkoniantsis: Boarding school food

There are some adventures in live you cannot really explain, I was lucky enough to live in one for 4 years, this summer one of my best friends from high school gets married.

Candy Houses

Ok so there are gingerbread houses and then there are candy houses. The only other candy house I know is the one in Hansel and Gretel. But nevermind. I have never understood gingerbread houses. I love gingerbread, I make it almost every year, but it looks like this. Love gingerbread Great flavor, on the soft side with a word on each that's christmas-y. I guess I like writing on words, (that is royal icing by the way madethe easy way with meringue powder, water and powdered sugar.) nothing against homemade gingerbread people, but my desserts on more on the rough elegancy side and less on the drawing on buttons and noses, which is more cute. My candy houses those are my cute. I have made many of them. and I don't have the photos for the step by step it's messy and almost always made at night/ But I have ingredient recommendations. The structure's components are a soda carton (the glass boxes come in, can be beer as well of course) and a shoe box lid. ...
