New Cookbook

Hello Friends. I noticed today on my blog aggregator that my own blog has become a dead feed. I haven't posted for at least 5 months.

Disgraceful!

So I wanted to share quickly, I just acquired a new cookbook! In between high school and college I worked at a cafe, it was a pretty great job, we made some awesome food, with some amazing recipes. My favorite was the chocolate pound cake with chocolate sauce and raspberries, and I've been looking for a long time for a similar recipe, but nothing I could find looked like it. And then, good news! My old boss has compiled and printed the most popular recipes, all the best ones, I bought a copy last week and I've already made 2 things from it, including, of course, the chocolate pound cake.

(I made it as extra large cupcakes instead of bunt cake. And I messed up the chocolate sauce trying to be clever, it didn't turn out saucy.)

I can't wait to make the Caribbean chicken and Thai chicken wraps again (sans chicken for me) and try the India wrap, a new-to-me recipe with lentils and yogurt dipping sauce, sounds delightful! And have fond memories of the spinach lasagna, and all the muffins, and the carrot cake, and the apple cake with caramel sauce and pretty much everything else. Mmmmm.

You can buy the cookbook from Linda by emailing msacookbook (at) gmail (dot) com.  Oh, and this is not a sponsored post, I am not being reimbursed for my opinions. :)

And, no promises, but soon I would like to put up directions for homemade ricotta, as well as 2 recipes to use your fresh homemade ricotta, let's see how long that takes me to get those up, shall we?
