Holiday Desserts - Blackberry / Raspberry Cobbler

Delicious!

Happy Holidays!!

Shrimp Scampi and Walnut Salad

Salad made with walnuts, feta cheese, granny smith apples and champagne caper vinegarette.

Sautee

Sauteed shallots, garlic, olive oil and butter for the sauce

4th of July Cake Balls

This is an attempt at red, white and blue cake balls to celebrate the holiday right.  The melts that you use to dip the balls in make all the difference.  Clearly the blue melts are the winners.  Even if they don't look pretty, they sure do taste yummy!

Hope everyone had a great Father's Day!

Rodeo Boots 2012

Beautiful boots that will be perfect for next season's rodeo!

3-Layer Yellow Cake

Yellow cake with chocolate frosting.  It's important to remember eggs.  One of the layers, sadly, had to go without and it was a challenge to frost.  Eggs help to maintain the structure of a cake.

Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

I made chocolate chip vanilla ice cream last night.  This is the first of four flavors that I am making as a Father's Day gift.  Home made ice cream is delicious and surprisingly super easy to make!

Baby Birds' Nest

Nat Geo, where are you?  We found these baby birds in a palm tree in the back yard.

Cake Balls

Delicious balls of cake.  Confetti cake mix dipped in white and milk chocolate.

Bread Pudding

I recently tried my hand at some baking. First up, bread pudding, before and after shots!!

Rodeo Goat

I snapped this photo while working a Sheep and Goat Committee shift.  I think I know what he is thinking: why drink my water when I can step in it?

Yay for Spring!

Don't wake me until I say so
