This dessert doesn't look like much in the pictures, but trust me, it is rich and luxurious— doughnut in thick, rich, liquid form. There is a "molecular gastronomy" restaurant in Chicago called Moto that pioneered the idea of doughnut soup. Ever since I heard about it, I've been wanting to recreate it at home. Since the weather will (hopefully)...

In case you haven't heard the news... I am officially a Bruin. Dustin and I will be moving down to sunny Los Angeles, California later this year, so you'll have to imagine the "w" in wafoodie becoming an "l"! Choosing UCLA was probably the most difficult choice I've ever made, but now I am glad everything is finalized, and I can start getting...

Looking for a Passover friendly dessert to bring to our Easter Sunday Passover Seder, it seems the two things common for Passover that I kept coming across were flourless chocolate cake and macaroons. I chose to go with macaroons because they were super easy— at least the ones I made were super easy! I thought about dipping or drizzling them...

Happy Easter (and Passover)! Today we are celebrating Easter with a fancy brunch and mimosas. Tonight we are celebrating Passover with our Rice friends in Seattle by having a Seder meal. It's also Opening Day for baseball, and we had a busy day running around doing touristy things in Seattle with our friends yesterday before they left town....

It's officially Spring, and Easter will be here in only a few days, and Easter means bunnies, which means carrots! Spring is the perfect time to make carrot cake, so I set out to make my own perfect version. I was mostly successful. Taste-wise the carrot cake rocked, but unfortunately I didn't bake it quite long enough (even though I did...

Making homemade versions of different candy bars is near the top of my list of desserts to make given the success of the 3 Musketeers we made last summer. However, it always seems that something else jumps to the very top before any candy bars are created. With Easter coming up, Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs are popular and popping up everywhere,...

Saturday was a fantastic day (not for Dustin's brackets— completely busted after a long day of bad basketball topped off by Gonzaga's loss). For breakfast, we stopped by Stumptown for coffee and Crumble and Flake in Capitol Hill for croissants before heading to Magnuson Park with Bonnie and her BFF, Ruby. The girls had so much fun running around...

Last night we planned a fun-filled evening of NCAA basketball and Zero Dark Thirty. I entered a bracket at work and went 10 for 10 at the start of the first round. I was leading the bracket all up to the last 4 games of round 1 (winner got a $25 gift card to Starbucks). All I needed was for Notre Dame, Oklahoma or UCLA (hopefully UCLA because I...

To distract myself from officially making the biggest decision of my life (I think I know where the best fit is but I just can't quite commit), I am baking. A lot. Nothing to drown the overwhelming thoughts of my overactive brain, like loads of sugar. Good thing we upped our time at the gym. The day I made these we actually used our free...

Happy St. Patrick's Day! We celebrated the holiday a little early by going out Friday night then bringing this deliciously festive dessert to a fondue party on Saturday night. This is another creation from the Momofuku Milk Bar cookbook. And I'm not going to lie— after eating there in person, being able to frequent Momofuku in person is a real...
