I had plans this week, plans to explore a couple new recipes, try out some new stuff, but as so often happens, life got in the way.
In a good way that is.
We had dinner at a friends house last weekend and I made some cupcakes to bring, cause I was asked to bring dessert.
These are Black Forest Cupcakes, and I didn't get a great shot of the finished cupcakes, but here they are anyway. I made some Ganache for the frosting, and then piped it on and finished with a cherry on top.
And then we got invited to go for a boat ride one day, and that was fun. I made cookies to take along. Some Oatmeal Chocolate Chip and some Kitchen Sink cookies. We finished off the day by going out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant. The second time we've eaten there recently and it was so good.
Really.
I'm up for going there again, soon.
I basically did the tried and true most meals this week, Chile Verde, Taco's and Huevo's Ranchero's.
I love it when I get the yolk nice and 'dippy' as my friend Donna says. The yolk makes such a great addition to the sauce. (these pictures were all taken with my camera, I was too lazy to go and get the 'big' camera out).
I also made some Meatballs in Mushroom gravy (soup), simple and yet I like it.
Along the way I did play with one new recipe, and as soon as I get that one down, I'll share it. But as a teaser...
I made some cultured butter, and it tasted pretty darn good. I'll share the how to's on that soon. I want to try it one more time before I get into specifics.
Well, that was my week, and who knows what is going to come my way over the next few days.
Although I do have plans for that cauliflower I have in the fridge and the eggplant and mushrooms and...
Monday is also Boat Club, can't wait to see what everyone brings. I'm making French Waffles.
Cause I can.
