Are you a Baking Powders reader? are you wondering why I disappeared? Due to health considerations, my intake of sweets has greatly diminished and my time has been spent making crochet items....

It's been a long long time since I last posted here. Months seem to go by as fast as days and the recently gone summer was full of new activities and lots of work. After xmas I took on a new...

This is sort of a rant post. Why? Because I'm really sick of hearing about the newest diet that comes out every other year. The Atkins diet, the pineapple diet, the juice cleansing and the la...

This post is certainly long long long overdue. But such is the life of a grad student. Over Christmas break I had the pleasure (not kissing ass here) to meet my boyfriend's family. I cou...

Contrary to what a lot of people think, apple pie is almost exclusively an American thing. We don't make pies in Spain, I haven't seen them in Italy, England or France. One wonders how we sur...

Next week I'm turning 27. It's a strange feeling. A feeling of comfort. The realization that I'm not anymore in my early 20s and I really like it. I am not the person I used to be a few years...

I remember from high school philosophy, the importance placed on the topic of 'tempus fugit'. In other words, time flies. It seems like summer started yesterday and it's left us by today. The...

I am in love with spicy food. There. I said it. I know for all of you who probably have been eating spicy food their entire lives, that's no big deal. However growing up in Spain, spicy food...

I'm not quite sure what to tell you about today. I'll tell you that summer is going by too fast but somehow it barely feels like summer. Oregon has rewarded us with a week of warmth, only to...

As you can see, my frequency of posting is a variable with no control. As usual, that doesn't mean I'm not baking as much as I possibly can. I recently moved in with my boyfriend, with whom ...

This post is remarkably late, as Easter was a while ago. However, these are vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting, which are just great for any occasion. Quite moist and delicious. I made ...

I did it again. One more year I made my own Thin Mints, instead of buying them from the Girl Scouts. You must think I'm a terrible person. Truth of the matter is, homemade ones taste better. ...

Breakfast in 15 min, how does that sound? it can really happen. I have been house and catsitting for a friend over the past week. He, unlike me happens to have a waffle maker. So the other ...

It's been many many months since my last post. I almost have no idea what to tell you, if there's any of you out there that still read this blog. What can I say, grad student life doesn't ...
And there we go... once again, an entire month without posting! Oh the grad student life! Well, I've been so cramped with studying that I really don't have a ton to tell you. We're movi...

Hi all! How's your summer going so far? Mine, mind you, is awesome. I guess summer activities are directly related to the level of hotness in the area you live. The pacific northwe...

I know guys. Once again, long time no see. I don't know who told me that summer was a more relaxed time for grad students. But whoever it was. Lied! After 3 intense weeks of teaching 3 days...

Yay! summer's here. And I'm still teaching, but I will have more time to post recipes that I made centuries ago and I just didn't have time to write about. Remember the ice cream recipes I p...

Today I'm gonna tell you about my dearest blogger friend. Her name is Maria and she's the author of Remena Nena . I met Maria over a year ago, when all we had in common was that we were both ...

I have a confession to make. I love making ice cream! You guys might remember me mentioning that I bought an ice cream maker. Well. I can guarantee you it's been put to use! 3 batches in a we...

I can't believe I'm doing such a terrible job at keeping the blog going. And I'm really sorry guys. Because I have actually been baking quite a bit. But apologies aside, I'm back again. If yo...

Wow. I made it to the 100th post. I must admit that the frequency of posting has been quite low lately, but grad school doesn't leave much time for more. I have indeed been baking quite a lot...

Hi all! Wow. Over a month without a word. I'm sorry guys. I'm sorry I haven't said hi in a while but mostly I'm sorry I don't even have time to bake. But hey! the term is over in 2 weeks an...

I'm gonna repeat myself. Just because I know I've already mumbled about teaching and students and such things. Well, you know, when you're a PhD student, life is quite limited to labs, class...

Have I mentioned how much I love my labmates? Very much. You know, when you start in a new lab, with a new project, doing stuff you've never done before, things look a little scary. Every lit...
