Fresh sugar kissed Strawberries generously dolloped with sweet citrus Lemon Curd Whipped Cream piled on light, tender cake-like biscuits for the best Strawberry Shortcake ever! My good friend, Melanie, of Canvas Shoppe and Woven Pear fame, brought Strawberry Shortcake to our Fourth of July Feast and they were delish!
Megan from Country Cleaver is a relatively new friend of mine in the food blogging world. But let me tell you-I am so happy we "met" each other on Twitter. Megan is awesome, her site is awesome and I think we can all agree these pancakes are awesome.
Ummm... Amanda from I Am Baker asked me to guest post for her and then I promptly freaked out. Full-on panic mode. Her site and her cakes are beyond gorgeous. But then I pushed myself beyond the freak-out and was inspired by Amanda's "surprise inside" cakes.

I was all set to post a new real food recipe, but then I decided that this cake is too perfect for Tu B'shvat to resist posting today. Seriously folks, you need to make this for Tu B'shvat. But then, keep the recipe handy, because it's so delectable, so pretty, so great, you'll want to make it again, and again.
I have been on such a cheesecake kick the last couple of weeks. I have eaten more cheesecake recently than I have in my whole life. I did these a couple of weeks ago for this guest post. It's the first time I've dabbled in bars.
So easy to whip up, this chocolate cake with streusel topping will soon become your go-to snack cake with your morning cup of coffee. It's just so good! No frosting needed, the chocolate chip streusel topping will do the trick. If you ask me, it's better than frosting anyhow!
It's time to get your holiday baking on. To be able to work with Hershey's and Reese's to create a whole lot of goodies is pretty much a dream because I love everything about them. Check out all of these drool worthy treats that my friends and I have created!
Is it me, or does this just scream Valentine's Day? It's decadent and indulgent, a dark chocolate custard atop a buttery, shortbread crust. Oh, and if that wasn't enough - how about the heaping mound of sweet whipped cream right on top? I'm pretty sure this is why we have Valentine's Day.
I'm a native Texan with a passion for good food and Texas history. Tex-Mex is a way of life for me, and so is baking!
