"Chocolate cream pie! You know what I love about cooking? I love that
after a day when nothing is sure and when I say nothing, I mean nothing.
You can come home and absolutely know that if you add egg yolks to
chocolate and sugar and milk, it will get thick. That's such a comfort."
Today was just one of those days where pain and discouragement are much more prevalent than peace and contentment. So I came home, exercised and decided to bake. Baking is cathartic. There is something so serene about kneading dough by hand, washing dishes in hot sudsy water, checking on dough rising, smelling sweet aromas from the oven. If I had another life, I would probably open a bakery. I found this recipe today so that's what I decided to bake. Doesn't it look delicious?? I'm waiting for the dough to rise, so I can't report on it quite yet. But if you're looking for a diabetic-suicide, this looks like the recipe to do the deed! I'm leaving out part of the sugar, because it just seems a bit over the top. :)
looks amazing. . .how I wish I had my own kitchen. I would spend all my lonely nights baking. . .and baking. . .and then making some dinner. And when I'm left with a pile of cookies and no desire to eat them, it's never hard to make somebody smile
