Apple Cake Recipe
Sometimes, it takes *really* looking something over before you realize the error of your ways. I’ve been working away on my second book, and last night I completed the recipe list to be included. (HOORAY!) However, I noticed that most of the recipes that I really want in the book are main courses, and we [...]
Gingerbread Recipe
You never know what you have in common with someone until you discuss food with them. This recipe for gingerbread comes from a lovely little cookbook my son’s teacher wrote.

It is a heavier bread, very dense and moist though. The [...]

IT just so happened to co-incide with my birthday, so I treated myself and made it! It was SO AMAZINGLY GOOD!!! Try it, you’ll agree! Chocolate Turtle Cheesecake [...]
