California Cooking: July 2010
http://whatsamandacooking.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 6, 2010. I had a package of Ricotta that was just screaming at me in the fridge, so I made lasagna. It turned out fantastic. I still had some left over, so I also made a Ricotta Pound Cake. The pound cake is something else. It is really good fresh but turns amazing overnight as the crumb gets even heavier. Adapted from my mother, the TJ's box and probably Jamie Hixon. No Cook Lasagna Noodles (I used Trader Joes, but also love Barilla). 1 package sliced mozzarella cheese. For the red sauce:.

California Cooking: August 2010
http://whatsamandacooking.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 6, 2010. Brigitte's Crème Brûlée French Toast. I first had this recipe at a baby shower given by my friend Brigitte. Needless to say, it is fabulous. Recently, I made it for a family reunion. It was very well received. I like to make it after spaghetti night. There is always leftover bread, so it is perfect. Also, I have successfully halved the recipe using a smaller pan, and it was just as great! Brigitte's Crème Brûlée French Toast. Adapted from Gourmet July 1998. 1 cup packed brown sugar.

California Cooking: January 2009
http://whatsamandacooking.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 14, 2009. From Elizas 2nd Birthday. Initially I wanted to make a chocolate cake, because well Eliza is my child and LOVES chocolate. My mother, however, brought up a great point that other two year olds do not eat as neatly as Eliza and a chocolate cake might pose a stain disaster for another mother. Therefore, I decided to make her a yellow cake with vanilla butter cream. Eliza's 2nd Birthday Yellow Cake. 1 cup butter, softened(2 sticks). 1 1/2 cups white sugar. 2 cups cake flour.

California Cooking: February 2010

Monday, February 1, 2010. Variations on a Theme: More Peach Salad! I should know better. My main craving with Eliza was peaches. No, people, I am not prego, but I still love some peaches. Today, I used leftover steak from dinner last night. Therefore, I didn't want cheese (well I wanted, but.) to increase the fat level to astronomically high. Here is what I did:. Peaches (today instead of grilling, I threw them in the microwave. They are better grilled.). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Lemon Pancakes by Ree.

The Pierce Family: Caden's Birthday
http://jbpierce.blogspot.com/2011/05/cadens-birthday.html
Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Caden had a great birthday this month. He's 2 now and definitely following suit with the "Terrible Two's", but he makes us smile and laugh a lot to make up for it. :). For his birthday we went to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point and then we had dinner at Pirate Island then came home for cake and ice-cream. All of Brandon's family came, Jamie and Doug, and Chris and Emily were all there. We had a blast and Caden loved every minute of his big day! 18 lbs, 26 inches.

The Pierce Family: Memorial Day Weekend in Vegas
http://jbpierce.blogspot.com/2010/06/memorial-day-weekend-in-vegas.html
Friday, June 11, 2010. Memorial Day Weekend in Vegas. For the past couple years, Brandon has gotten together with all his old apartment buddies. Last year we all went camping at Zion's National Park and this year we all went to Vegas. Everyone was able to come except for Greg, who's going to school in Chicago and couldn't make it. We had a lot of fun! Statue of Liberty made entirely of jelly beans! Chris, Brandon, Caden, Royce, Micah, and Jason. My boys were all worn out! And a girl too! 18 lbs, 26 inches.
