So this happened today...
White chocolate layered mousse and cheesecake. It was amazing.
Oh gosh. Gimme.0 -
My caramel linzer tarts from this morning. Every morning I go get my bagel with cream cheese I get these put in my bag. Yum.
Oh I love linzer tarts! I've only found one good bakery down here to get them at.
Love the photo bomb!
Palmer that cheesecake YUM!
You guys encouraging her to photo bomb me. Sabotage.
And I have to agree with the fact that Palmers cheesecake looks awesome. I would destroy that cake right now if I could.
Now I'm so curious about these linzer tarts I've never seen those!
Yes lucky for me the cheesecake was too much to finish (it's hard to tell but I swear the portions were close to double what most restaurants serve) that I took half home and get to experience it all over again today.0 -
This happened after the Electric Run on Saturday night. Probably shouldn't have, since I had already eaten ice cream for breakfast, and I really didn't have room for it, but I ate it anyway.

Also, seriously, I think you might be the only person I know that actually has ice cream for breakfast. I love it.
I thought the brown things on top were mushrooms, then I realized they had sliced the walnuts! It was good, it wasn't overly sweet. I was just going to get ice cream until the waitress mentioned it. I think eating ice cream for breakfast has helped me not crave sweets later in the day (that probably sounds funny, since I ate this at night). I dunno, but something is working! :bigsmile:0 -
Tonight was homemade cherry pie with Talenti vanilla and whipped cream

This happened last night. Went to dinner with some friends from school, and the waiter came back to our table winking, and asked whose birthday it was. We're quick to take a hint, and my friends said it was mine, so he let me pick a dessert on him. After seeing posts about banoffi pie in the Eat All The Sweets challenge, I had to get that. Holy YUM! I shared with my friends.

It's gorgeous-- what was it like?0 -

It was like heaven. The graham cracker crust is thick on the bottom, and not crumbly, and the rest was creamy, except the banana. It's dulce de leche, banana and toffee. I should've kept the picture I took from the other side. It was pretty sweet, but not too much. I would definitely bang again.0 -
Went out for Thai food - I like it very, very spicy. Was treated to some coconut ice cream after to "cool down" - nothing magical about the ice cream but am always touched when a local family-run place takes an affirmative interest in its customers / guests. Sorry no pick - just trust me on a nice scoop of coconutty ice cream.0

We went to a trivia night tonight which if you aren't familiar it is basically a fundraiser with tables who compete in rounds of pop culture trivia, and is basically an excuse to bring yummy food to share with friends while you drink a lot...
Forgot to take pics but I made:
My friend made cookie dough fudge which was so rich it was ridiculous...0 -
I stopped by the farmer's market on my way to work today and at the French bakery there they had these little babies:
Salted Caramel Macarons, y'all. They are wonderful. Or were...they are gone now. The bakery has all sorts of macarons all the time, including Key Lime, which is my 2nd favourite, but they only seem to make the Salted Caramel now and then. And when they do, I'm over there like a dog to a dumpster.
Oh man. I really need to find a good bakery. I've been meaning to try making macarons but I've read that humidity really affects them, and well . . . southern Georgia.0 -
So excited to have some amazing pictures to share... my kids had a sleepover at grandpa's house Saturday night so husband and I got to go to a neighborhood bakery/cafe for brunch on Sunday. I had a mimosa, we each had an egg sandwich, but we couldn't resist sharing this cinnamon walnut roll...
It came out like this:
But then you smear all the icing over it and it looks like:
Except I forgot to take a picture until after I had cut a big corner off to taste.
I exhibited exceptional restraint and didn't even touch the butter that they served it with....0 -

Mmmmmm! It was probably better without the butter anyway, I'll bet.0 -

It reminded me of my mom who put butter on every cinnamon roll and pastry she ever met... it was years before I realized that Cinnabon's and homemade monkey bread actually have plenty of butter "inside" them, you don't need to add more to the outside! I'm sure though that my mom is laughing at me right now from heaven as she enjoys a big cinnamon roll dripping with butter and her 10th cup of coffee for the day, thinking, "yes honey, but just because you don't need butter, doesn't mean it isn't better with it!"0 -
I'm going to require a recipe.0

We didn't have butter in my house as a kid. I grew up with nothing but margarine. It's only been this year that I've discovered the amazing experience that is baking with real butter.0 -

I know I'm going to be the only one that feels this way, but I'm really not a fan of cinnamon. That roll looks awesome and I would devour it minus the cinnamon. Yes I know, I'm weird.
You are very weird, cinnamon is delicious. That roll looks amazing.
I think today I'm going to make a version of these brownies, minus the pecans and M&Ms, think I'll add some crushed pretzel sticks to give it a little more salt and some crunch. This is what happens when I watch food network for too long at night

OMG Jen. I peeked at your diary, 243 cals/serving? Not bad for all that goodness.
Was it hard to get the cream cheese in there on top of the candy pieces?0 -
Yes 243 per serving which isn't bad considering everything in them. The cream cheese was a little rough so I just dropped some on top of each reese's cup and it looks like it spread through while it baked.0
