some of you might be happy,

to know that this bake is gluten/butter/sugar free!

it's the baker's glee...

to bake something this fluffy...

Happy Birthday Love of Mine

happy birthday love of mine,

oh you're so fine...

but sometimes you behave like a nine,

& that really draws the line.

otherwise you are like sweet wine,

or 99% dark chocolate so divine!

even if your pockets only have a dime, 

you'll still be the brightest star that shine. 

this is a healthier twist of the awesome Sour Cream Chocolate Cake...less sugar, more whole-grains..and guess what? oh yes, it is still AS YUMMY. knock yourself out !

Lemon & Blueberry Friands

friand is a petite cake,

& a popular Aussie bake!

this will be great,

in the summer with a cuppa by the lake,

plus it's an easy one to make!

Raspberry Shortcake

this is the best cake ever,

well - at least in Denise's baking endeavour,

& this makes her a very happy girl,

so happy in circles she could twirl & twirl...

for baking a decent creamed cake happens only in a leap year..

& this recipe is a keeper my dear!

Buckwheat Granola

so my friends had to admit,

that this was a hit!

choke full of whole-grain & seed...

an addictive snack that makes one greed!

oh yes this is very yummy indeed.

Apple Tarte Tartin from the Rice Cooker

"this is a first for apple tarte tartin!"

says I - with a sheepish grin,

question is what was it baked in?

if you've guessed rice cooker - you win!

it's a classy bake with a fuss-free spin...

& you can have this without feeling the usual sweet treat sin!

Root Beer Cuppycakes

I have been procrastinating for awhile..

& there's a handful of recipes in the to-blog file,

growing into a enormous pile,

it's time to snap out of this lazy style...

& update you on my baking trial...

so sit back..read...& smile.

Happy Weekends!
