White-Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

March 9, 2009
Thumbnail image for White-Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

I didn’t eat chocolate for a year once. Admittedly, my anti-confection atonement was bizarre and completely vanity driven but at the time it felt good to exercise a little personal self-control.

TCHO Beta Stuffed Cookies

August 29, 2008

The lovely purveyors of TCHO were kind enough to send me three samples of their chocolate flavors: Chocolatey (which I’d reviewed in a previous beta version), Fruity, and Nutty. After having a few squares and submitting our feedback online CK and I still had quite a bit of chocolate kicking around in our fridge. So [...]

To the Moon Alice: Pistachio Pudding Rocket Pops

Fruity Cheerio Butterfly Treats

May 11, 2008

In some ways the above treats are reminiscent of a lot of gifts I’ve given my mother over the years on Mother’s Day.  I was always the kid in Sunday School who couldn’t get their Dixie cups packed with Marigold seeds to grow and I’d end up bringing home my mom a cup of dirt [...]
