A few months ago, Hungry Bear favorited this cinnamon-apple cake on foodgawker and she finally made it for our Lunar New Year celebration this year. It's not Chinese or Vietnamese in any way, but Hungry Bear didn't want to make anything too elaborate and we had two apples to use up. So that's how a cinnamon-apple cake got served at a New Year's party with Chinese hot pot. I was working that day when Hungry Bear was baking the cake and I wasn't paying much attention.

I don't think I've mentioned that I recently started spending time at a quaint little tea shop situated in a beautiful area in town perfect for walking and catching the cool breeze from the nearby river. Indigo Tea Shop is the sort of place that beckons you to walk through its propped open front door with the promise of comfort snaking through the air in the form of heady, enticing scent of tea leaves, spices, and freshly baked goods. The staff of the shop are welcoming and very knowledgeable, as I'm not very adept in my knowledge of tea. Sure, I've known the comforts of Chamomile, the curative properties of Lemon-Ginger, the uplifting and energizing effects of Green tea, and the scent alone of a good Earl Grey can lift my spirits and bring me a sense of peace all at the same time. But there is so much more to blending...and enjoying...a fantastic cup of tea.

Baked cheese balls

OK, so we did the experiment with the egg roll wrappers and string cheese to make baked cheese sticks and they turned out alright...but nothing to write home about. These, my friends, were not the same outcome. Yes, I used the leftover string cheese from the above recipe. http://justaddasliceoflove.blogspot.com/2011/09/baked-cheese-balls.html
