Baked Vanilla Custard with Nutmeg
Baked Custard is coming, but first … it’s Friday, and I won an award! Jenn at Bread + Butter passed along the Premio Meme Award to me! Thank you Jenn!

Slow-Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup
If you follow me on Twitter (twitter.com/bakingblog) then you know that I have been under the weather lately. When I am sick I turn to soup for comfort. There is nothing like a bowl of hot soup to put the roses back in your cheeks. Of course, when you are sick you do not really feel like spending time stirring, mixing, or watching a pot of veggies get soft. Enter my slow cooker. It was a gift at Christmas, to replace my old one...

I was thrilled to be selected as one of the lucky bloggers to test the new Riserva pasta’s from Buitoni. I got a pack of the Wild Mushroom Agnolotti and I was tasked with coming up with a sauce to compliment the pasta. This is a wild mushroom pasta, and I love the combination of lemon with mushrooms, and since the filling sounds rich I thought a light sauce would compliment the filling best. However, light does not mean bland,...
Apple Streusel Muffins
When I have overnight guests I like to treat them to something special for breakfast. Usually that means I break out the cast iron skillet and fry some sausage, use the drippings for sausage gravy that is poured over buttermilk biscuits and served with some fried eggs and home fries. Guests from outside of Texas, or the South in general, are usually charmed to get a hearty, country style breakfast. So, why apple muffins you ask? ...
