    Everything in here looks great. I haven't been baking much. Side effect of my painting career (lol) taking off big time. Gotta get back to it.

    I haven't been baking much either but we are in the middle of a kitchen overhaul, and in rearranging my cabinets I found a bunch of attachments for my stand mixer that I didn't even remember it had! So I think maybe I should try to use that more often... LOL.

    For the bakeoff I did take the blueberry crumble, but the funniest thing was, I forgot the oats in the topping, which really makes the dish! We ended up in a 3 way tie. Good food was had by all.

    No oats?! I'm sure it was still delicious.

    They were pecan pie bars. Even without a pastry blender, it was a very easy recipe to make.

    I made these for a family Halloween treat. They're supposed to be salted caramel blondies.

    Wow, I thought I would have a ton of catching up to do, but this thread is so quiet! I've never heard of that brand, @WinoGelato. Did you try it? Not that it would matter anymore. I told one of my vegan friends that i would go vegan if she quit smoking, and she took me up on it. Started on the 1st. It's testing my love for peanut butter, let me tell ya! I have to say that Ben & Jerry's dairy free ice creams are really freakin' good. Like, I ate half a pint of Chunky Monkey on Sunday, then I ate some PB & Cookies. I haven't tried the Coffee Caramel Fudge yet, and I'm not a fan of the fudge brownie normally, so I didn't bother getting that one. I was walking down the ice cream aisle the week before wondering why the hell I would make such an offer. So many flavors I still haven't tried. *cries*

    Oh my gosh - vegan!? Good for you - but wow, what a challenge!

    This whole group has gotten pretty quiet with Jose no longer around, others have disappeared as well.

    I've become a workaholic so I don't have time to bake anymore. MrAcrylics has taken up the mantle and makes some pretty amazing cheesecakes. Happy to see you, Cupcake!

    I'm glad to see you guys again! That makes me sad that you're not baking anymore. I love seeing the things you make, Acrylics. Wino, I went out for dinner last night and there was only one thing on the menu that wasn't French fries that I could eat. I couldn't have the red velvet birthday cake, either, so I ordered raspberry sorbet. Eating out is going to be the biggest challenge for me.

    I've been baking a lot but too lazy to post pictures... and my stuff doesn't look so pretty...

    I made a fantastic pear frangipane tart for Easter though!
