A friend of mine suggested that I should post this here, so hopefully some of you will get a kick out of it. :) It's a Yule Log I made for the holidays. It's a chocolate cake roll filled with peppermint ice cream, ganache coating on the outside, and meringue decorations.



( Behind the cut: two more pictures, links to recipes, and the ridiculous saga of making this Yule Log. )

I served this on Christmas Eve ~ and yes, despite the grainy 1960s nature of that picture above, it was only taken last Thursday evening :P

Champagne & Cheese Fondue ~ adapted from The Fondue Cookbook

1 c. mushroom caps
2 c. champagne
4 c. grated Swiss cheese (I used 3c Jarlsberg & 1c Gruyere)
2 TBS-1/4thc. all-purpose flour
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon cream (I used half and half)
salt & pepper to taste

Place mushroom caps in a pot with just enough water to cover them and bring to a boil. Cook for five minutes. Drain – but reserve 1/4th of the water. Slice the caps very thinly, set aside.

Heat champagne slowly in the fondue pot over the stove. Stir in the cheese, melt and sprinkle the flour in slowly to use as a thickening agent. You may need more/less than called for. Stir constantly until completely melted & smooth.

Combine egg yolk, cream, reserved liquid and sliced mushrooms caps and stir into the fondue. Do not bring to a boil!

Season with salt & pepper to taste.

Transfer mixture to the table & burner.

Dippers: French bread, medium cooked shrimp, cooked asparagus tips, raw broccolini, cucumber, small cooked potatoes, baby carrots, salami, mushrooms.

1. Looking for shirts, tunics or dresses with a sweetheart bust that doesn't actually show cleavage... I'm not sure how to explain, but clothes similar to these:
http://needsupply.com/womens/knife-print-tee.html (love that, but don't like the print or color)
http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?isProduct=true&color=001&navAction=jump&parentid=W_APP_KNIT&id=17323841
Basically, the sweetheart bust is shown but not actually cut out.

2. Also, show me your drape-y, lace-y clothes. Similar (but not limited) to these:
http://needsupply.com/womens/chiffon-back-tunic.html (if someone can DIY that, or sell me a soft long gray t-shirt and black chiffon, I'd be interested!)
http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?isProduct=true&color=011&navAction=jump&parentid=W_APP_KNIT&id=17347493
http://needsupply.com/womens/future-side-pocket-dress.html
http://needsupply.com/womens/marle-drape-cardigan.html

3. AND... clothes similar to stuff from urbanoutfitters.com and needsupply.com (or point me to similar online U.S. shops with affordable prices!). Mostly interested in monochromatic colors (gray, black) or neutrals & muted colors. Also like burgundy, shades of purple, and some teal (darker). NO whites, please.

Sizes xs - sm (possibly m)

Thank you!!

*** 2 MIX CDs!
My boyfriend wants one. He wants someone to make him an all rap CD with the newer songs on it...

ME! - I have a few songs id like to choose (country)

Didn't see any purses I liked in the last post- sorry guys. :) Looking for one in-stores now.

But now, I'm interested in seeing any necklaces you guys have. I don't want any plastic, kiddy necklaces- if you know what I mean. Also not interested in anything SUPER expensive. Just want a cute necklace. :)

I'm looking for a vest! Not a puffy or a sweater vest, though, and I'd prefer dark navy blue or black. I need size XL or XXL, depending on measurements. I want one like this, but...for females. :)

I have a $25 iTunes gift card I want to trade.
Please take this off my hands, LOL.

I have an American Eagle $10 off $30 purchase money card (for in store or online - or possibly both like the rewards... not sure on that, though!), expires at the END of January.

I have no use for this right now, so I'd like to trade it away.... if anyone has any LOW $ gcs (like say maybe $5?), let me know? I would also exchange it for small [new] items, burned cds/movies (I *really* want to see "Amelia")... lmk what you'd be willing to trade for it, I'm open to suggestions!

I can either mail the card, or I can give you the code for online use via email :)

edit: a few other things ;)
- VS "Sugarpop" or "Punchsicle" beauty rush sprays [They were all out at my VS today! :( ]
- VS "mocktail hour" beauty rush gloss

... new only!
