I am back!

Sorry it has been a while since I posted. I have been feeling a little down lately and decided to take a little break. I was so excited last night because I finally got back in the kitchen after my little hiatus, but my excitement soon became disappointment! I tried to make the “Cream Cheese-Poppy Seed Cake” from the Martha Stewart magazine. They looked so pretty in the picture and I was certain I would be able to make them. I tried it and….it didn’t work. I am not sure what I did wrong, but the cakes fell in. They didn’t puff up at all. They did taste good, but no pretty puffiness. I finally fixed my camera problem, but was too embarrassed to post a picture of them. I mean these things looked blah.. I do plan on attempting them again since they are so pretty and did taste very good. Just not until I make something that works out well to give myself confidence again.

I bought the Rachel Ray magazine Sunday while I was waiting for the Harry Potter movie show time. I don’t know, I was really excited about it, but I don’t think I will be subscribing to it. Now and then I will probably buy it just to see if there are any new recipes. The ones I did notice were ones you can just print off the Food Network site. It was a magazine first for me. I actually finished looking at it within the 30 minute ride home that night. Usually it takes me a couple of days to read one. Now don’t be upset with me…I am not saying it is a terrible magazine, just one I didn’t care for. If I don’t talk to you again soon I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!
