Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake

A friend of mine celebrates her birthday in the month of December. Her birthday cake request was for a cheesecake. Instead of baking a cheesecake, I thought it would be a great idea to get a variety of different slices of Cheesecake Factory cheesecake.

Godiva Chocolate & Dulce de Leche

Tuxedo Mousse (my fav) & Tiramisu

Mika-san お誕生日おめでとう

Holiday Baskets 2009

After much debate, I finally decided what would make up my Holiday Baskets this year.

Soft Ginger Snap Cookies
Neiman Marcus Chocolate Chip Cookies
Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
Snickerdoodle Blondies

18 dozen cookies later the finished product came out wonderful! Each year I look forward to making these Holiday baskets, giving a little bit of home away from home.

May all of my blog readers have a Happy Holidays and a very prosperous New Year!

Stay tuned... Christmas Baking is coming soon!

A Wonderful Gift

How cute is this cake server? A friend of mine who lives in Tokyo got this wonderful gift for me. I think it is the cutest thing! The funny thing is I didn't have one. I am now a proud owner of a very stylish cake server.
