Happy 4th of July everyone!I have been a slacker-o of an Alpha Baker. I have no valid excuse, except that we have no AC and that makes me don't want to bake. (...)
Unlike some of my Alpha Baker friends, I get pretty excited when I see recipes containing raisins. I love raisins. I would happily order, eat, cook anything (...)
I love this pie. They are fun to put together, even though they take a heck of a lot longer than I had anticipated. The recipe reads pretty easy. Make 3x the (...)
I love bread making. I don't know why and can't really explain it. There is just something calming about it. Perhaps it's working with the dough part? Though (...)
I am not a big fan of cookies, especially the roll cookies. They are just high maintenance, in my opinion. There's so much to do, you roll it out, cut it, move (...)

"I don't like cupcakes."That is what my friend told me when I mentioned it was the last thing I baked."They are basically cakes, just in cupcake form," is what (...)
To this day I still remember the Gateaux Breton that I made from Rose's Heavenly Cakes. I baked it on June 20th, 2010 (!!!) as a catch up post since I missed (...)
We are finally baking Pizza Rustica - YAY!I have wanted to make this since the book came out. I had even thought to ask Marie to put this on the schedule last (...)
I am beginning to realize that the easier the recipe is, the more disorganized I become. Especially on recipes that are tagged Q&E. It's like it's screaming at (...)
Finally! Chocolate Chip Cookies from Rose!I made this recipe in November 2014 (that felt like super long ago). This is again, one of the recipes I test for (...)
This bread rocks.That is how hubby and I feel when we took our first bites. We couldn't even wait for the 2 hour cooling period as instructed by the recipe. We (...)

I need to work out.Not because I am eating dessert every week now (that part is obvious). But because it took me what feels like forever to fold the super (...)
Hazelnut is my least favorite nuts, compared to walnuts, almonds, pecans, or cashews. So when I saw this on the rotation schedule, my reaction should have (...)
As I am trying to fit baking back into my weekend life, it occurred to me that I might be out of practice. Rose's recipes, as much as I love them and I love (...)
I seem to be on a losing strike lately. When I saw this recipe I thought ah, banana, chiffon, bundt cake = yum. I love bananas and have ripe bananas and this (...)
This is a very short post and my extremely feeble attempt to participate. Highlight the word feeble because I only have one photo. I made this earlier this (...)
If there is one recipe I am least excited about in this book, this is it. The picture looks really cute and I love the crumb topping as decoration. But a cake (...)
Rose is slowly converting me to be a lover of all pies now. Before we started this bake-a-long, the only pie I make is her apple pies from The Pie & Pastry (...)
I made this on Valentine's Day, which feels like a long time ago and it really has. 10 weeks ago!Yes I baked ahead and I made full recipe! But in this case it (...)
My hubby is vegan. He has been vegan for several years now and he's doing a version where he's not eating any added oil. So no olive oil. When I baked things (...)
The easiest recipe so far from The Baking Bible. This cake took me less than 2 hours to make (1 hour 55 minutes to be exact). And that includes baking (...)
May I present:my leaning tower of cookies. These cookies are very sturdy. Yes they are. Why do I say that? Sturdy is not really a word you would associate with (...)
I am making 1/4 recipe of Cherries and Raspberries Pie instead of Sour Cherry Pie, made from frozen fruits.There are no fresh cherries this time of year.I know (...)
This is a redo of the caramel buns. I made another 1/2 recipe of the brioche and the caramel. The purpose is to try to redo the caramel. This time I paid (...)
These are fantastic. They are better than anything I have ever had or have ever made. They are not too sweet, even with the caramel on top. The fillings taste (...)
