Hi wow I'm sorry....photobucket has made this look like trash I'll fix this all as soon as I can 🙃🙃🙃

Blueberry & Blackberry Rice Pudding

2011-09-14T22:18:00.001-04:00

Helloooooo. I made this stuff ages ago, but I'm only just now getting around to writing up a post. Why? 'cause that's just how I am, haha. But also because working 5 days a week plus full time classes makes me want to blow my brains out.Anyway, as you can tell, I'm really really into blueberries right now. I love rice pudding. I love blueberry desserts. It's a logical progression. I added in the

Blueberry Ice Cream

2011-08-24T23:48:00.004-04:00

MSZKW8P8KNW7 I suppose you all thought me dead. I wouldn't blame you. The reality is just that work and school have left me completely drained, not to mention my irritation at not getting decent pictures. I've finally managed a method of editing that gives me decent results, so that helps. And just for fun, I will show you a straight-from-the-camera shot vs one mostly edited. :) Anyway, I

Super fun chocolate giveaway.

2011-05-04T01:54:00.009-04:00

So I recently bought some chocolate molds. Logically, that leads to experimentation. And, as what usually happens, I make many many more things than I will eat. SO HERE I AM AGAIN, to give away things that I have made. :) I have 13 chocolate bars. 11 are average sized, one is larger than usual, and one is SUPER FREAKING HUGE. It's like a pound. Super giant S'more Bar (chocolate, toasted

Japanese Strawberry Shortcake

2011-03-28T14:34:00.005-04:00

Because my work schedule varies so wildly (I either start work at 5:30 pm or 10 am or 1 or 2 pm), so does my sleep schedule.And because of that, I feel like a zombie.And zombies don't bake.I think.I'm pretty sure they prefer their brains raw.But I digress.With this recipe comes another side of excuses. It seems to be my MO lately, but such is life. I finally have enough money to properly bake,

Chocolate, Banana & Caramel Entremet

2011-03-03T00:05:00.003-05:00

I feel like whenever I open up the "create post" page on blogger, I have to find new words for apologies. My life really hasn't been conducive to posting, and so it's just hard to find the time/money. Also, I live in a basement apartment now, with no natural lighting (except for a tiny, high up window in my bedroom), so my photographs suffer.I did buy a new lamp with some daylight CFL bulbs, and

Kiwi Sherbet!

2011-02-06T12:14:00.003-05:00

I have been remiss in my blogging duties, but I do have an excuse.First, I was sick for a couple of weeks, and hardly felt like being alive, much less baking anything.Second, when I got back to my apartment, I discovered that my minor mouse problem had turned into a major mouse problem. Let's just say I found surprises in my bed and in my kitchen drawers. T____TSo aaaaaanyway, here's something

Rainbow Cookies

2011-01-05T20:21:00.005-05:00

I think, by now, you guys are aware that I like making rainbow baked goods.I have an unhealthy obsession with food coloring, and what better way to use it than in rainbows?So, in my neverending quest to make enough rainbow food to drown my home state, I decided to go back to my baking roots: cookies!I made these pretty much in the same way I made the rainbow bread; 7 unequal lumps of dough,

Duck Fat Fried Potatoes

2011-01-03T21:07:00.005-05:00

So I did the whole shebang: duck, potatoes, and apple pie.UNFORTUNATELY.I felt like crud, and so by the time dinner was done, it was dark outside, and I was too tired to go all out on photos.So when I went to edit them just now, all my pictures of the duck were blurry, and the pie just looked silly. I tried, but failed miserably at getting anything else.So what do you get? Pics of the potatoes

Chocolate-Dipped Peppermint Meringues

2011-01-01T16:56:00.003-05:00

So I'm back, sort of.I got the urge to bake yesterday, and since meringues are so simple, I figured I'd made some more. :)Not much of a story this time, I'm a bit under the weather, but I'm going to be making dinner tomorrow consisting of DUCK, duck fat fried potatoes, and an apple pie...so stay tuned for an in depth post on those, probably Monday. :)Chocolate-Dipped Peppermint Meringues:4 egg

oof!

2010-12-12T02:12:00.002-05:00

So I know I've been awful, but school's been crazy.And I've also decided something.I'm going to culinary school!Well, first I'm leaving VCU and working so I can afford my uniform and various kits (I've got knives, but they're all chipped because /someone/ ran them through the dishwasher T____T )And then in summer, hopefully, I'll be in the culinary arts program at J Sarge, and the pastry arts

Pumpkin Pie Spice Meringues!

2010-11-17T18:40:00.004-05:00

You know, every time I go to type "meringue", I always want to type "merengue" instead.Interesting Kiara Tidbit o' the Day! XDAnyhoooo. Last night, I whipped egg whites by hand for an hour while watching TV, because my mixer bowl was dirty and I figured I could use the exercise.I have poor decision-making skills, obviously.Anyway, here are pictures, and the recipe! :)I couldn't decide which I

Funny Story.

2010-11-16T15:51:00.002-05:00

Okay, not really.But I tried to make macarons.They were epic fail. (I'm unsurprised)I was going to take pictures anyway, but my camera's battery died.And I can't find the charger.Obviously, the universe wants to spare you from the horror of seeing such ugly creations.You're welcome.XD

:sigh:

2010-11-07T00:42:00.002-04:00

I'm tired.School is hard. T_THere's a picture.I promise I'll blog better later.

Blueberry Japanese Cheesecake

2010-10-11T17:11:00.004-04:00

Ooooooh.I love cheesecake.It's pretty odd how much I love cheesecake, considering that I'm not a fan of cold cheese...but I guess cream cheese is in a category of its own.Japanese cheesecake is the child of a beautiful affair between cheesecake and sponge cake, haha. It's so light and fluffy, but still manages to taste like cheesecake, and even have that same creaminess.I tried to make it once

Mini Fall Cookies!

2010-10-09T18:12:00.002-04:00

So the muffins were good...still not exactly what I was looking for in a muffin, so I'll hold off on posting those for now.Buuuuut, I do have more cookies to share!These are mini cookies shaped like oak leaves, maple leaves, pumpkins and acorns.I have learned, through a couple of days of decorating mini cookies, that they are 5 billion times more work than regular cookies. So much less room to

2010-09-02T02:40:00.002-04:00

Okay, here's the deal.I've decided that I'm going to try to post what I had for dinner EVERY NIGHT.NO MATTER HOW MUNDANE (mmmm, 6 boiled eggs) OR HOW UNHEALTHY (just a plate of french fries ^_^ ) OR EVEN IF I DIDN'T MAKE IT (awww yeah, Chick-fil-A XD)That will make me spend more time on the blog...I promise. Haha.

What's this? Some sort of...giveaway...?

2010-08-22T01:08:00.013-04:00

Deary me, kiddos, I’m having a rough time! A drop in sales in my etsy shop, stock just sitting around...So I’ve decided to hold a giveaway!That’s right, lovely readers, you can be the lucky recipient of one dozen lollipops made by yours truly. (random flavors, because who doesn’t like a sweet surprise? ;) )The rules? Simple:You must be a resident of the United States or Canada. (sorry

Blah.

2010-08-16T15:15:00.001-04:00

So I'm all moved in to my new apartment. :)I don't know what to bake first in here!Also, in case you haven't seen, here's my threadcakes entry XD

2010-08-02T11:57:00.003-04:00

sigh.I must apologize to you all.Due to life and everything, it's been difficult to blog. I really only bake for my etsy store anymore. I'm rather hoping that once I move to my apartment at school (on the 13th! wooh!) I'll be able to blog more. (I will live a block away from the grocery store again ;) )But in the meantime, if you want any cookies or lollies, visit flour on her nose on etsy (

2010-06-18T16:14:00.003-04:00

Oh my gosh. I'm sorry.It's been a crazy month, and life will continue to be crazy until August.I've been working, going to Richmond, and trying to get everything together for my etsy shop.Speaking of which, I do have a single listing up there...for some lollipops. :) So check it out! In August, I'll start the cookies and other various candies.And speaking of those various candies...how about some

Cookies with hazelnut filling.

2010-05-20T16:22:00.004-04:00

I really felt like making something cute and adorable.Logically, that leads to using little heart and star cookie cutters :)Few things make me happier than tiny, shaped food. Haha.I don't actually have much to say today, just trying to get through this summer of work and tiredness before I start my fall of school and tiredness. XDI'm baking some cupcakes for my friends' birthdays, we're having a
