I decided to make a cake for my darling granddaughter today. She's off on vacation in a few days, and I won't see her for a week. She loves berries, and she loves cake - so this was a natural. . . .

I finally went apple picking on Saturday, just up the hill from the middle of this small town in New Hampshire. I love going there - it reminds me of all the years I'd pick the kids up from school . . .

This is the cake I made for my daughter's birthday - she had requested not my lemon cake, but something with lots of lemon curd. I was stumped. Then I remembered the dessert roulades ( . . .

This is one of my favorite breakfasts - and with all those apples piled up in a bowl from my recent apple picking at Alyson's Orchard , this was a good day for apple cobbler.

I used to bake muffins for a living. In the 1990's, I baked thousands of muffins. The scent of lemon, cinnamon, brown sugar, and sweet butter accosted you as you came in my door. It was heady, . . .
