thanks for sending in Matthias

For a while now I can get Theresa to go up to Omaha easy as long as we visit cupcake island. It seems that might come to an end soon because she has started making some awesome cuppycakes. I lost a bet with Theresa’s parents over is Monk would find out who killed Trudy. (curses) So I had to make them dinner. We had from scratch fried ravioli with dipping sauce Theresa made, steak au poivre, Theresa’s killer risotto, NE sweet corn, some home made bread, and Boston creme and strawberry shortcake cuppycakes.

As usual with most things we make the cupcakes were from scratch. She used Alton Brown’s Chiffon Cupcake recipe for both. The boston creme ones had vanilla pastry cream piped inside the core, chocolate ganache coating, and some whipped cream on top. I picked up some strawberry preserves for the filling in the shortcake ones. Oh man were they good.

Minute to win it is awesome. I was giggling through both hours. It looks like so much fun. I am so going to try and become a contestant.

EDIT: woops wrong vid for a second there

it starts hard, but in about 30 seconds it gets super easy and beautiful. It looks like it is going to take forever till you get one to send down tons of bits and then rips through it.

Being lazy on a sunday we pretty much just watched the food channel all day. There was a show on how Guy Firedi and they showed one of his signature dishes and it looked so good. We started talking about dinner and I wanted to try something new. We both said this dish. (Theresa you owe me a coke) Cajun Chicken Alfredo is money, off the hook, and winner winner chicken dinner.
