I just got asked to bake a red velvet cake. Not only have I never done red velvet, I have never done a layer cake. I think that counts!

I always used to think it was a strange combo...until I tried it a couple of months ago. Absolutely delicious!

We serve Ghanian joloff and plantain along with our turkey. It's the best part.

It's hard to pick just one food. I usually go with favorite foods of the season, so my current favorite food is the pomegranate.

Flour. Everywhere

I did the white last weekend. I thought it was so easy (even though the dough is really sticky) and I probably could have let it cook a little longer, but overall delicious. It was my first attem...

I definitely get distracted and will forget to add ingredients or use incorrect measurements, but that often happens even if I am just cooking for myself!

I just bought this two days ago and made a risotto. It was great! My only complaint (and it's not even really a complaint) is that the box is so big, I am going to be making risottos and puddings...

Any kind of tea, but I especially love this white pomegranate tea I found at Trader Joes and green tea.

LOVE IT and will put it on everything. I just don't understand the whole "tastes like soap" thing. I almost cried when Ina said she didn't like it.

This is such a great, informative article. Thanks for the tips!

I can't believe how many people hate cilantro!! I am not the hugest fan of sage unless it's used in small quantities or a butter.

Tomatoes! (I live in CA and buy locally, it's ok)

I wash, but always disinfect the sink and nearby surfaces afterwards.
