Sweet Treats
The Cordial Cricket is an elegant stationery and gift shop located in Chester, Virginia. They had a birthday this past Saturday and Petites Bouchees was one of the sweet table providers. My partner in crime, Candy Valley Cake company supplied the cake pops.
I had fun making the cake stand above. If there [...]

Mini-Lemon Pound cakes
Playing around with these miniature baking forms. Aren’t they adorable?
Brownies too!
The advantage of brownies in smaller pans? You get more of those coveted crusty edges.

Chicken Yakitori
As much as I love them macarons, I have to eat real food sometimes. It’s not that I’m slammed with orders all the time but switching from a sweet to savory kitchen and back again can be tedious what with cleaning and sterilizing work areas. I try to bake early in the morning so [...]

Basil Ice Cream
The hot and humid weather has sequestered me indoors. I really hate being under the sun, you would think I was a vampire. But a person’s got to eat and I had to go grocery shopping.
Speaking of groceries, a big new Kroger just opened in our neighborhood and I was so excited [...]

Haven’t done a local food musing in a while. Yes, we still eat out but there hasn’t been much to write about regarding the food scene in RVA from our point of view (I missed all the hype when Balliceaux opened.)
If the “Hungry” Hubby and I would like to go out for a date night, [...]
The city that grew the foodie in me. Chubby Hubby has a delectable account of this most underestimated food destination in Asia. Although I must say the food scene has developed into a level that I have not seen before. Pork belly and foie gras cassoulet? Never seen that dish on any of the menus when I [...]
Unagi Don over rice served with pickled radish
Remember that song from the 80’s? I seem to be singing it a lot lately. I’ve made no secret of my love for Japanese food especially their donburi fare. I always tell the “Hungry” Hubby that I must have been Japanese in a previous life. However, trying my [...]
