Baking

Today I made a chocolate butter cake for Zack's birthday using a recipe from Catherine's blog
 Mexican wedding cookies for the Eid.
Using a recipe given to me by my friend, Renee.
And sugar cookies using a recipe from Mimi's Kitchen.

  7. Oh Tammy, you're always baking such nice things. And Mr. M and I trying to cut back on gluten! (With small success.) Your blog makes me want to rush to the kitchen and start tossing around some flour and butter and sugar. :)

  25. OMG Tammy - these desserts are making my mouth water. That chocolate cake looks so yummy, I'd love a piece right now. I seeing the wedding cookies are for the Eid. When I heard this holiday was coming up I of course thought of you. I'm not sure what the proper greeting is so how about Good Holiday to you!
