Trifle is one of those holiday favorites that I grew up with every now and then on special occasions. I ordinarily use strawberries. Although strawberries are few and far between on the cusp of winter! So, I’ve opted for raspberries. Which are equally delicious, but […]
I have to admit that I’m a whipped cream snob. I know that that’s not the most couth thing to say. But there is absolutely nothing better than homemade whipped cream. It’s surprisingly easy to make. All you need is heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, […]
Homemade whipped cream is a truly glorious thing to behold. There are so many strange and bizarre additives to most store-bought whipped creams. They’re full of artificial ingredients, stabilizers, and flavors. Personally, I try to avoid things like corn syrup and artificial flavorings. I’m much […]

I always make cookies for Christmas. I’m not really much of a sweets person. If I’m going to do something decadent culinary-wise, I’m really more of a cheese person. Hence the Quiche w/ Spinach, Ricotta, Pecans & White Wine and Macaroni & Cheese w/ Gruyère […]
