ADG and I whipped up some challah french toast for breakfast yesterday and enjoyed a lovely breakfast with my brother Adam and his friend Dana. My mom's homemade challah is probably the most delicious thing in the world, and it was awesome as french toast. Check out my previous challah french toast posting here.

Shakshuka in the ARL
So last week when I got home from Buffalo for winter break I cooked up some Shakshuka for the family. My mom had never had the dish before, and since it is a QCC favorite I figured I had to make it for everyone at home. The entire family enjoyed, except I did neglect to add the jalapeno pepper, and so pepper wasn't added until the very end. Regardless, it was a delicious meal. Also, I used my new deep saute pan with lid--this pan is going to take my cooking and QCC to an entire new level. Watch out!Also, check out a previous rendition of Shakshuka on QCC here
Returning to Buffalo on the second--more posts to come then.
end of semester baking!
So Monday night I was invited to a Hanukkah party with my fellow HT student teachers at our teacher's house. I decided it would be nice to bring dessert and since one of my classmates is vegan, I thought of making the krazy chocolate cake (a recipe courtesy of my mom) since it is vegan friendly. Naturally, I had to make the amazing oreo cream cheese icing (pictured in the mixer pre-oreo), so I only iced half of the cake (also pictured) so my vegan friend could enjoy as well. The cake was a hit!I am really learning to love baking when I get the time,
and it is so great having the kitchen aid mixer (courtesy of adg's mom). The cake recipe was featured previously on QCC.

Happy Hannukah from QCC
! Last night, the first night of Hannukah, I had a Hannukah/Shabbat dinner here with some friends. I had a fun time setting the table with our blue plate ware from Adam's family and lots of gelt and dreidels.
For dinner, I made some oldies but goodies: kosher roast chicken, green beans, and a salad. Also featured are some delicious latkes courtesy of Chef Cohen and a store-bought challah courtesy of Wegman's.
