LOOKING for: your favorite Tiramisu
Comments (13)Sylvia, here's a variation on the Tiramisu theme - a recipe for Tiramisu Cake that Stacy posted. My family loved it! Tiramisu Cake (Stacy3) 1 (18 1/4 ounce) box French vanilla cake mix 1 pint coffee ice cream, melted 3 eggs 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened 1/4 cup sour cream 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (Kahlua - I bought one of the tiny bottles from the Liqueur store and used it all) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar 1 tablespoon cocoa 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat standard bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray. Dust with flour, shake out excess. 2. With electric mixer, beat cake mix, melted ice cream, & eggs in a bowl for 3 minutes on medium speed. Scrape into prepared cake pan. 3. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes or until tooth pick comes out clean. Cool pan on wire rack 20 minutes. 4. Frosting: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, sour cream, butter, liqueur & vanilla on medium speed until light & creamy (2 mins or so). On low speed, gradually beat in confectioners sugar, about 1 to 2 minutes. Refrigerate while cake cools. 5. Once cake is cool, spread frosting over top & sides. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Dust with cocoa....See MoreWhat does your hypothetical home look like?
Comments (38)I had to make a house for a project one time. It was an impossible house, but I even made floor plans from top to bottom of a three story house, down to the finishes and furnishings. The bottom floor housed a huge entry way with those double winding stairways to greet you. To the left was a study, warm and cozy with a window seat. Straightforward was into a rather large living room. There was a fireplace at the far end, shared (see-through) with the dining room large enough for at least a dozen at one table lay. On the right hand side of the dining room there were lanai doors that opened to a deck and just beyond it, a water inlet, and a garden (of course!). To the left of the dining room (and it could be accessed by the study on the other end), was the spacious kitchen with floor to ceiling windows that looked out over the west coast, high up on a cliff. The second floor was the laundry (huge!) and the master suite that had an amazing closet and bathroom. You should've seen the tub. Oh my. Obviously very spacious rooms and closet, since it took up an entire floor?! Seems like there was even an entire "closet" for purses. Wonder what that said about me since it was a house that was to be my mental retreat from the world? Hm. The third floor had two guest bedrooms with their own bathrooms and the rest of the floor was my son's area where he not only had a bedroom big enough for two queen beds (for sleep overs, he was really little then) and bath, he had a secret hideaway where he could lounge and play video games or watch movies. It had a spiral slide that he could ride all the way to the ground floor. What's really kind of cool is, he ended up with a bedroom a lot like my vision except far smaller (no kidding, since i live in a 1400 sq foot home and only has half a floor to himself ;) in reality. I still have the notebook with all the stuff in it. I should give that a look again. I guess I haven't needed to since I learned how to enjoy what I actually do have. Making this house into mine has been fun. I can't wait to get around to a more solid garden after a couple more years. I want to make wattle edging and that is going to take forever to do, but it's gonna fit me like a glove when I'm done....See MoreSW white heron, what does it look like in your space?
Comments (40)Isn't it wonderful that we all get to choose how we spend our free time? I have been painting with oils and acrylics for 50 years. I love color. I love studying the science of color, the emotional impact of color, how color impacts our mental health and how color measurement differs from the human perception of color. I enjoy understanding color trends and how they relate to our economy and social structure. I don't look at this as work, it is simply something I enjoy, like baking pastries from scratch, canning fruits and making home made jam, growing roses that have amazing scents, making my own candles and soaps and playing with fragrances, playing with my dog or renovating my home. You must have other interests that are more interesting and provide you with more joy than mixing paint colors to get that illusive shade that is just not quite what SW or BM have decided to produce....See MoreWhat does your bathroom look like?
Comments (7)When DH gutted our avocado tub/shower enclosure and all the other avocado fixtures we went with white subway. No walk in shower in the main bathroom. I still think one needs a tub in a home and as you pointed out most bathrooms are not luxury spas so the combo was necessary. I wanted all white because then I am free to change colors with shower curtain/towels w/o having to coordinate. If the black nobs intrigue you go for it--they can usually be swapped w/o issues years later if you tire of them. Here's the basement bathroom he did a few years later. We went with matte finish due to hard water and spotting....See Moreplllog
