Brötchen (German Hard Rolls) | Magnolia Days

May 16, 2013

Recently I cooked Indian food for the first time. I knew it would be the first of many dishes. What I didn’t know was how soon it would be before I made the next one. It was shortly after I made Moong Beans when an Indian cookbook arrived in the mail. How great! I looked [...]

Details, oh details, how they can be so important. I’m one of those detail-oriented people. My memory is quite good and I keep lists and calendars to stay on track. Earlier this week I felt a bit ahead and thought how nice it was to have a little free time. I invited my mom to [...]

Prosciutto and Brie on Baguette
