My frustrations are coming from my lastest dessert fiasco that, while still delicious, was not blog-worthy. But, I know that there are many of you out there this week who have had a number of victories in the kitchen. I've already seen them on some of your blogs. Please share them here. And, after coming to terms with my limitations, I did produce a cheesecake bar that was delicious!
Last Week's Top Recipes...
Take a look at last week's top recipes and you'll see what I mean about talent in the kitchen. Thanks to everyone who returned to the party last week and to those who accepted my invitation and joined the party for the first time. I am humbled and inspired...
Also, I'm having a giveaway this week. One of my followers will win a copy of Johnnie Gabriel's Cooking in the South. If you're interested, check out the link to the giveaway here!

I linked up my mini ice cream pies. Which are the first dessert I've made since you've started this linky.
ReplyDeleteI linked up Fudgy Chocolate Cake. And I'm the same way with what I can and can't bake. I focus on mostly brownies, cookies, and cakes. I've had some doozy of a failures but I just admit it, post 'em and move on :).
ReplyDeleteWow, those cheesecake bars looks delicious! I love coconut and blueberries!
ReplyDeleteWhat are you talking about?!! You are SO not out of any league! :) I've spent lots of time looking at your posts, and you ROCK! Don't let a flop in the kitchen bring you down--we all have them. :) I cannot make a layer cake (that looks decent) to save my life! Anyway! I love your blog and appreciate you hosting this linky party. I linked up some CCC Dough Cheesecake Bars and Popcorn Snack Mix.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the sweet invite! And I say you should share the unblog-worthy posts too -- then we can all learn together! You bars do look and sound heavenly!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestions to post the failures. It's a good idea. I might need to set up a new page on the blog - kitchen flops!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kim, for inviting me to the link party! I'm fairly new to blogging, and certainly not a professional baker... just someone who has so much fun in the kitchen. I linked up my Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles and my Blueberry Gingergread.
