I have a friend.  Let’s call her Phoe.  She takes amazing pictures.  She knits (and designs) amazing things.  She makes amazing jewelry. She makes amazing food.

All of the picture taking, creating, and cooking send me further down the spiral as it were…my friend Phoe is an evil temptress.  Okay, so she really is not evil at all.  But she still is a temptress.

Originally, she got me hooked on Blue Moon Fiber Arts Socks That Rock sock yarn.  Which in turn started my sock obsession.  Most recently, she posted a recipe link and amazing pictures of something she just baked…so of course I had to do a little clickety-clicking and found myself salivating at the keyboard.

Have a look-see over here.  I will wait.

I know, right?

And I don’t even like damn cheesecake!

But I couldn’t shake it.  I thought about those brownies for at least 24 hours.

Then I did it…I made them…

And to this non-cheesecake lover, they are phenomenal!  It is hard to put it in words how freakishly good they are.

I have to put cream cheese on my grocery list again *licking fingers*.

Peace.

In addition to my crazed crafting, I have been doing some cooking.

Behold, the apple pie.

First we peeled, cored and sliced the apples (Granny Smith’s).  I adore my gizmo that does it all in one fell swoop.  Mine is from Pampered Chef, but I know that there are others out there.  Makes it incredibly easy.  My personal record for peeling, coring and slicing one apple is 11 seconds.  Yeah, I am a dork and timed myself.

Then you sprinkle on some sugar…

Gosh, it was divine.

Peace.
