    No, I didn't see anything, either. And what the heck?! I haven't seen that one, is it a new member? I think SideSteel's cousin needs to add Dammit to her CallMeBacon. I think that every time I see her name.

    Today for breakfast took a wrap & put some Lotus Creamy Cookie Spread on it & nuked it for around 10 seconds. So yummy!

    We spent the weekend in Charleston, SC and the food was excellent. Unfortunately I didn't get very many pics (I only remembered the gelato). The star of the weekend was definitely the almond croissant that I had at the Charleston Cafe. It came with a HUGE plate of fruit. It looked about like this:

    I hadn't ever had an almond one before but you can consider me converted. I'm planning to try to make some soon.

    Buffalo Chicken dip donuts...yeah sounds a bit odd. That Butter Cake one sounds yummy!

    Salted caramel donut from the local donut shop. Still got to try the cannoli donut, the blackberry jam filled donut and a couple others (I've had the Boston Creme and the Coconut ones, so good).

    The flavor was great I did make them into mini cupcakes and used my regular buttercream recipe I was worried theirs would have been too sweet.

    Yum. Cream cheese danish is my favorite.

    I made chocolate brioche this morning. It was pretty good but I think I'd have rather had danish.

    It was good. Not enough cream cheese though. I admit I was craving this

    th?id=HN.608025811746948411&pid=15.1&P=0

    but I went to two stores and couldn't find one (so hard to find in the US). I will probably drive 20 minutes this week to another store that *might* sell them though. It's too much work to make or I would give it a shot... although probably not that hard for you if you know how to make brioche dough (I have no idea!).

    It was my first attempt at it-- like most pastries I've tried it wasn't difficult just time consuming. It required a whopping 30 minutes of kneading. Thank God for stand mixers.

    No pictures?

    We actually got a stand mixer last December, I should probably give it a shot. We love brioche, my mom always brings back 3 or 4 when she comes back from France (although it's the packaged stuff, still good, but not filling at all for the calories, so I try to avoid it, but the kids gobble it up). Guess you can make extra and freeze it though...

    They definitely got a little meltier than the recipe I was trying showed they should so they weren't very pretty. I think I may have let them proof a little too long. They were supposed to proof for 2-3 hours and I think I left them for 2 hrs and 45 minutes, but I wasn't watching them. I put them in the oven with the light on and went back to bed.

    Here's the recipe I made:

    Here was mine:

    Ah well, it happens. It was still very good.

    Oh I'm drooling! It's pretty much what I've been craving, just with chocolate instead of raisins... YUM. I wish I wasn't so lazy!

    Mmmmm brownies.

    Because of Fran I had to go make cheese danish. I'll have to post a pic later; I ate this morning's serving without thinking about it.

    I love the optical illusions of the brownie; the first picture makes it look pretty small, but I feel with the second picture it could be about the size of my face.

    I would like a brownie the size of my face...
