Hi guys! It's been a long, long while, and I'm thoroughly disgusted with myself. lolYou know how it is... You find something exciting to do like starting a new blog and then bam!... You get a new job 2 weeks later and all of a sudden all of your time is occupied. *sigh*I've still been baking and taking pics of the lovely results, I've just been too busy (read: lazy) to post about it and edit the

I want to make biscuits! I've never had enormous success with biscuits and that is my secret shame. I am a woman of the South. The ability to make great biscuits should be pulsing through the blood in my veins. But alas, that gift evidently skipped a generation or two, because goodness knows I've struggled until recently with making biscuits that weren't suitable only for rock skipping out on the

And not the kind you'll hear Pavarotti singing at The Met either.I don't know if I've mentioned this yet, but I have this strong desire to have a bakery one day. It is, dare I say, the thing that I am passionate about. So, having this love for baking and baked goods, I like to visit bakeries whenever I get the chance. Unfortunately, there are not a great many of them in my neck of the woods, so I

You know how you can have a conversation with someone and that conversation will lead you to think about something totally unrelated to what you're actually discussing? Then that thought leads you to think about something else that is totally unrelated to anything that was previously running around in your brain? Well, that's what happened to me yesterday. In some weird way, I ended up thinking

So I'm a food coward, right.What I mean is, if something sounds unusual, I tend to stay away from it. If it has things in it that I've never tried, I tend to stay away from it. If it has things in it that I even remotely think that I may not like, such as curry, for example, I stay far, far away from it. However, I have determined to change that. I decided some months ago that I would be more

Ebonye's Fried Chicken, originally uploaded by Ebonye.So I have this thing for making fried chicken, right. I don't know exactly why it's there. I think it's just that it's such a classic staple of both Southern and African-American kitchens. Maybe that's what mystifies me about it. Perhaps that's what motivates me in my quest to find the fried chicken recipe that is above all fried chicken

Hey, y'all! I'm finally starting a blog about baking and cooking in general. I love to bake, there is something that fascinates me about it. And since I began to photographically document some of my creations as I began the search for the most fabulous chocolate cake ever, I figured why not blog about my cooking and baking in general. And so I shall. So with that, let's just cut to the chase.
