You guys,
Life's been insanely busy! Sorry! I have got to get more active but I just don't have the time. I promise promise promise I will do SOMETHING soon. Hold on tight...

Amargasaurus

Okay- so I'm making shortbread.

I look down and suddenly-

This is why you don't let paleo-nerds in the kitchen.

Or the internet.

Or if you're less familiar with dinosaurs-

Stego and some sauropod things.

Moar pics later-

I'm exhausted

Goodnight everyone!

Monday

Ugh.
Ugh.
Yuck.
Monday.
No baking for five days :D
/cries.

This is why school lacks fun.
No cooking classes.
I did make Oatmeal Molasses muffins that apparently turned out all right.
Anyways.
Hey-
I'm not dead, just a schoolkid.

Sam's Bread Pudding

Okay-

My best dish is my bread pudding.

So, for a hint of fall, I added pecans and apple...

No, it may not look great, but it tastes amazing.

Recipe on recommended recipes.

Also done today was spiced pecans.

Take pecans, fry them in butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar.

Yes.

In progress

Right now I have a fall riff on my most famous dessert in the fridge...
waiting to be baked.
First time coming up with my own recipe.
We'll see how badly it turns out.

Hey everyone!
Would you rather see a tutorial on homemade puff pastry
or does my famous bread pudding sound better?
I think I might alter it a bit to make it fall-ish, like Apple Spice Bread Pudding or something.
The danishes might be apple-pecan or something.
I don't know-
Ideas anyone?
Comment!

Waffles for dinner...
Made with Bisquick.
The horror.

I mean, I tried to intercept...
but I got shooed out of the kitchen.

I managed to get a dash of cinnamon in the batter before I was chased out though.
But she promised me feta if I stayed out of the kitchen...

I guess I'll let her mediocre waffles slip this time around...

Cinnamon Bread Finished Project

This was a triumph.

I'm making a note here:

HUGE SUCCESS!

Why is it so freakin' cold?!

It's only November.

Cold is not good for bread!

Currently in progress:

Cinnamon loaf

Whyyyy is it so cold?!

The towel that I was using to cover pictured bowl is now in the dryer.

With my jacket.

Being warmed.

*shivers*

-

Is it just me, or do you feel bad putting salt in yeast dough too?

I mean, you're basically neutering/spaying your pets. Except cheaper and with less post-surgery carpet shredding.

Alright, I've got to go switch towels on the dough. Towel in, towel out.

End result will be posted sometime later.

Pecan Pie

Fine- I give.
Here's a how-to on how to make my favorite Pecan Pie for the holidays.
Starring (camera-awkward) me!

Saturdayyyy

Wasted valuable baking time.

Darnit.

To make up for my lack of bread, here's an elephant made of towels.

I'mma go read PT now.

Boyfriend Pizelles

On days off, normal children sit and play video games.

I bake.

I'm cold.

Guten Tag

I'm Sam.
I like dinosaurs.
And baking.
So I was all "Why don't I start a blog?"
So I did.
