Recipe: Chocolate Gingerbread Cake with Cream Cheese Cardamom Icing
It’s Tara’s birthday today, so I baked her a cake based on this outstanding recipe. It was totally fantastic and I regret nothing.
My adaptation, respectfully: four eggs, not one; two cups of sugar, not half (what are you, a health nut? It’s cake), a cup of molasses and no Lyle’s Golden Syrup, and a cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Tara and I work at this blog, by the way. Here are some posts I’ve written over the course of the last three weeks.
The good news for these guys: there’s plenty of watermelon to go around.
I had to post Turkey Lurkey Time before the day was out. Hope yours was as psychotically joy-filled as this performance.



If Smiley Muffin were poetry in motion, she’d be the kind of poem you’d find on the inside of a humorous greeting card. You know, the kind that rhymes “over the hill” with “take a chill pill.”
One day, this will stop being funny to me. And that day is called “when I’m dead.”
