just another monday evening

As you know (or maybe you don't) I offer a pie a month. You get a beautiful homemade pie each month. Choose from pretty much anything you can imagine.

In addition to baking a Lemon Meringue pie tonight I made a fruit crisp. I use whatever is left on the counter and needs to be eaten. Pears, apples, plums anything. This is my favorite way to use up fruit, besides a pie. I have a weak spot for the crumbly, buttery topping that gets crispy and caramelized when the juices from the fruit meld.

late Easter post...

Last weekend, as you know, was Easter. It was also a beautiful Spring weekend in Seattle. We get rain all the time, but as my brother pointed out, it's not as much as other areas. I've been supplying Frankly Sweets of Seattle with cookies and cupcakes. Below are some shots of the treats delivered. I would love to know what you would like to see from The Dessert Kitchen at Frankly Sweets? What are your favorite flavors of cookies and cake?
