So yesterday was the last day of the Tour de France (congrats Alberto Contador) and thus the last day of the Tour de Fleece. Of course, as could have easily been predicted from last year, I didn’t spin nearly as much as I thought I would. I ended up spinning one skein of sock yarn [...]
This month’s Daring Cooks challange was brought to us by Jen over at Use Real Butter. The challenge was, as you can see, potstickers. Now, as much as I love most filled dumplings (as long as they don’t have cheese in them) and despite the fact that I can totally do the pretty little turns [...]
I’m a day late for posting with Daring Bakers this month but such is life I suppose. The May Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Linda of make life sweeter! and Courtney of Coco Cooks. They chose Apple Strudel from the recipe book Kaffeehaus: Exquisite Desserts from the Classic Cafés of Vienna, Budapest and Prague by [...]
The April 2009 Daring Bakers challenge is hosted by Jenny from Jenny Bakes. She has chosen Abbey’s Infamous Cheesecake as the challenge. Now lets note – I don’t generally like cheesecake. It’s not the texture that I don’t like, it’s the fact that it has cream cheese in it and me and most cheeses don’t [...]
I’m back again, kind of. My life has been really crazy lately but in short I am on medical leave from Sarah Lawrence (I should be going back in the fall). I flew back to Portland last Thursday morning and am just kinda hanging out at home. So yea, that’s where I’m at right now. [...]
.I somehow slipped into the rabbit hole that is the end of the semester mixed with coming back home mixed with being lazy at home which lead to a sheer lack of posting, but I’m back! My flight from New York to Portland was ok. We were 45 min late getting out of the gate [...]
Its that time of the month again (and no, not that time) – Daring Bakers posting day! This month’s challenge is Caramel Cake with Caramelized Butter Frosting by Shuna Fish Lydon and was hosted by Dolores of Culinary Curiosity, Alex of Blondie and Brownie, Jenny of Fory into Food, and Natalie of Gluten-a-Go-Go. My cake [...]
Earlier this year I did The Omnivore’s Hundred list and did fairly well – I had eaten over half of the things on the list and most of the things I hadn’t eaten I had never had a chance to try (and then there were a few things I never wanted to try). I found [...]
So I realized the other day that with all of the new people who are reading my blog between Ravelry and Daring Bakers, a lot of you don’t actually really know who I am and what I’m about (though I suppose you could click the “About” tab at the top of the blog…).
So, I’m Adam. [...]
I interupt this normally fiber arts related blog for your monthly dose of Daring Bakers news.
This month our challenge was to bake a pizza like “A Real Pizzaiolo”. The requirements were pretty easy this time: Make the same crust (there was a gluten free option), toss the dough (remember you are a real pizaiolo), have [...]
