Raisin Bread [Joke]
2008-06-02 10:18:00 A bakery owner hires a young female clerk who likes to wear very short skirts and thong panties. One day a young man enters the store, glances at the clerk and glances at the loaves of bread behind the counter. Noticing the length of her skirt (or lack thereof ) and the location of the raisin bread, he has a brilliant idea. ‘I’d like some raisin bread please,’ the man says politely. The female clerk nods and climbs up a ladder to reach the raisin bread, which is located on the very top shelf. The young man standing almost directly beneath her is provided with an excellent view, just as he surmised he would.Once she descends the ladder he muses that he really should get two loaves, as he is having company for dinner. As the clerk retrieves the second loaf of bread, one of the other male customers notices what was going on. Thinking quickly, he requests his own loaf of raisin bread so he can continue to enjoy the view. With each trip up the ladder, the young lady se...
Hot Pineapple and Raisin Salad
2008-05-25 13:26:00 Right, so all I’m writing about is Zainab’s food - I know. I’ve tried cooking here and nearly always wind up with disastrous results. The problem is that when you’re not in your own kitchen, you almost never have the ‘right’ implements or spices and there are so many stuffed in various nooks and crannies of ...

Brown Sugar Cinnamon Raisin Pecan Bread
2008-03-31 02:39:00 A few weeks ago, I needed to buy some more yeast. I decided to buy a jar of yeast, rather than the packets, which I usually buy. Seeing that the label said it was good in the fridge for 6 months after opening, I knew I was making a commitment to make more bread! So this past weekend I made my first cinnamon-raisin-swirl bread. The recipe I was used was top-notch - easy to follow, and delicious. I love the sweet brown sugar and spicy cinnamon. The recipe called for both golden raisins and dark ones; I had only golden so I also added pecans to the dough. WOW - so good! According to my husband, this makes great toast! The recipe made two loaves, so I gave one to friends and we froze half of the remaining one to enjoy later. What a treat!

Carrot Cupcakes with Golden Raisin Cream Cheese Frosting
2008-03-21 15:52:00 I’ve never been a huge fan of carrot cake, but Matt absolutely loves it – it’s what he gets for his birthday cake every year – so I decided to make some carrot cupcakes for his committee meeting the other day. I’ve eaten plenty of carrot cakes, and I’ve made carrot cake one or two times before, but I wasn’t too thrilled with the end result (I will admit that I am very picky about baked goods). I think my main problems with it are that it is frequently too dense, sweet, and/or oily, and it usually contains nuts and raisins, which makes the cake seem more muffin-like than cakey. Also, the frosting is almost always too sweet for my taste, but that’s usually the case with any frosting on any baked good I’ve ever eaten. To remedy these problems, I added lots of carrots to the batter to give it natural sweetness and moisture, thereby reducing the amount of oil I would need to use. In a non-traditional move, I added golden raisins (which I hate in the cake itsel...
Apple Raisin Muffins
2008-03-18 17:48:00 Have you ever wanted to bake something and didn?t have all the ingredients? Did you go ahead with substitutions and hoped it would come out? That?s where I found myself last night.I wanted to have a muffin for breakfast, a raisin muffin, to be exact. I searched through all my cookbooks and I did find recipes. But the ingredients were another story. My next step was the internet, where I found a recipe that was simple, yet I was still missing some the ingredients. I crossed my fingers and hoped that all the substitutions would yield me an edible muffin.What I got was a large humble muffin, whose taste surpasses any of those overpriced dry muffins available at coffee houses. Oh, is this muffin soft and so good. The recipe originally called for 12 muffins, but I wanted big breakfast muffins, so I used a Texas muffin pan. I still cannot believe how well the muffins turned out. I guess if a recipe is well written substitutions will still yield one a good result.If find yourself ...

Brioche Raisin Snails
2008-03-18 00:00:00 There are now more than 80 members who bake Tueday's with Dorie. This week Peabody of Culinary Concoctions by Peabody has chosen Brioche Raisin Snails . This brioche recipe is different from mine I tried Monday last week. I followed the recipe with some modifications: Contrary to Dorie's recommendation I halved the Golden Brioche recipe and it worked fine. I used the seeds of one vanilla bean to flavour the pastry cream I whisked the cream in bain marie in a pan with a rounded bottom to prevent a thin layer of cooked egg yolks in the edges I omitted the cinnamon sugar for the filling I used a length of dental floss to cut the snails I liked the result and will definitively will bake the snails again. Thanks Peabody for chosing this recipe. But I was a little disappointed by the taste of the flambed rum raisins. There was not a hint of rum flavour left after baking. Next time I'll soak the raisins over night in rum to save the rum flavour after baking. Enjo...

P. Diddy Getting An Oscar For “A Raisin In The Sun” ?
2008-03-02 23:13:00 “A Raisin In The Sun”I watched Puff Daddy’s version of “A Raisin In The Sun”, a film first made in 1961 starring Sidney Poitier, Claudia McNeil, Diana Sands, Ruby Dee and Louis Gossett Jr. on ABC the other night. Puff Daddy’s version was quite interesting, P. Diddy himself had a leading role, playing the troubled young man - who so badly wanted to be a success. I’d never seen Sean Combs act, so I was rather surprised to see him give such an inspired performance. Does his performance deserve an Oscar? This was one good film, I really enjoyed this movie.Now the movie itself was in the line of the “old negro spirituals”, no hope anywhere. But it ended like “Cinderella”. This new “A Raisin In The Sun” was a good movie, no doubt. ABC took a chance and from the news sources, ABC won big. Another feather in the hat of mogul Sean “Puffy” Combs and his new “BadBoy Films”, Diddy just keep doing it. Oprah, watch out baby, this Sean "Puffy" Combs ain’t playin...

Diddy and His Costars Bring Their Raisin Into The Sun
2008-01-25 01:29:00 I owe Diddy an apology. I've been giving him some flack over the past couple of days that he is only at Sundance to promote his vodka, though he is in fact in town to premiere a pretty big film at the festival, the newest version of A Raisin in the Sun, alongside Phylicia Rashad, John Stamos, and Audra McDonald. To be fair, he did spend a good amount of time with that vodka of his. Heh. While at the festival, he talked about being involved in such an important project. He said: On his first movie role: "This a historical moment for me, my first starring role in a movie...Some of the audience is going to want to see did I do good or did I fall flat on my face?" On the film: "Sometimes people come to a place and don't expect to get the message...This generation, they come for entertainment ... then they realize, 'oh man, this movie is really touching. It's making me really appreciate my family."' On moving from Broadway to film:"Broadway truly prepared me. It made me really go...

From the preview, it looks like he holds his own in the phenomenal cast, which is also from the Broadway production.If you don't know about A Raisin in the Sun, R-E-A-D-A-B-O-O-K!

Eggless Raisin Cake
2008-01-03 19:44:00 It was whirlwind of activities, planning, packing, last minute cooking etc ever since Dear Husband planned a beach side vacation for the family 2 weeks ago. Everything fit right in, the hotel reservations, travel arrangements, time off from work, the temperature. The vacation was just what the doctor had ordered to get away from the usual grind and seemed like a glorious way to end the year 2007. Both me and my husband love munching on stuff, chatting, listening to music, enjoying views during long drives and so I always make it a point to carry lots of goodies and keep it within hands reach in the car. So even this time around I wanted the same. However, because of lack of time I did not have time to prepare lots of stuff and had to rely on store bought stuff. However for a long time I had this cake in mind as it is easy to make and also requires very less ingredients. I hurriedly made it in the morning and even managed to click some pictures before the travel. I was however no...

Zorra of 1x umrhren bitte is hosting this months Sugar High Friday and she has declared it ?pudding Friday?. That?s right, pudding, in any form.At first, I thought ?great! Then reality set in. There are sooo many variations of pudding. I just couldn?t decide. Did I want something chocolate-y? Mousse? Steamed? Decisions, decisions. I procrastinated so long that the choice was made for me. Earlier in the week, I had made ?raisin bread? and it had gotten stale. Instead of throwing it out, I rejuvenated it by turning it into delicious raisin bread pudding. I really didn?t have to add too much to the custard since the bread had a lot of flavor on its own. I did add a handful of raisins just because I really like raisins. I ate a slice for breakfast with coffee and it was fab.So grab your stale bread and join in the fabulousness of Sugar High Friday~ Pudding. You have until December 24, 2007 to ...

Thanksgiving and Oatmeal Raisin
2007-11-21 05:08:00 This week has been all about food, baking and making no apologies for indulging. At any given minute during the last two days, you could have caught me with either a spatula or a cookie sheet in hand. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, no surprise since it is almost synonymous with food. I have no shortage of blessings and since I make a huge effort to be grateful on a daily basis, I don't get too into going around the table announcing my most cherished feelings of gratitude. Most of the time, that which I am truly grateful is extremely personal and I would rather share it with a very close friend or family member on a random day over a cup of tea and french Madeline's. But generally speaking, I'm with many others in celebrating this day and being grateful for family, friends and health. In case I don't get to post again until after Thursday, I hope that those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving have a happy and safe one. Since I don't have a picture to go with this post, let m...

Baguio Country Club's famous raisin bread
2007-11-15 15:10:00 When family and friends hear you're on your way to Baguio Country Club, one pasalubong request stands out: raisin bread! The next day, we had breakfast in the Raisin Bread Shop of the BCC. And of course, I bought their signature raisin bread and banana bread to take home.Don't miss out on their equally famous blueberry muffins among many other muffins. I'm sure their cakes are equally mouth-watering. In fact, the cake display case beckons to every customer who enters. But I had enough sugar for the morning. Also available in the bread shop are deli sausages and cheeses among many other products.I had wanted to stay an extra night but I had to rush to an evening meeting in Makati. So that ends my 3 weeks of non-stop travel. It's back to school. In a way, it's time for a vacation from my vacation. Hahaha!

can't eat just one: peanut butter raisin bars
2007-10-28 23:34:00 When I saw these squares on this blog, I wanted them in my belly, stat! But like all food porn, I knew I'd have to wait until I could make these myself. And boy, was it worth the wait. I wouldn't call these a bar cookie or a square, instead, they fit nicely in the brownie/blondie category. They reminded me of my most favorite stand-by brownie recipe in that everything is all mixed up in one pot. Chewy, dense and with a golden (almost flaky) top, these are a perfect snack. And I say snack for those of you who have restraint. Me, almost never. After one small square, I had to have another and another. I wasn't alone either....Cornelius kept heading back for seconds and thirds bits of peanut-buttery-raisiny-chocolat-e goodness. It's amazing that these lasted 4 days!I made a few changes to Lynn's recipe but loved the results. I always use natural peanut butter instead of the processed stuff and this recipe didn't suffer for it one bit. I also reduced the raisins and subbed in some ...
