Individual Peach Crumbles

Several weeks ago, I received a piece of very important kitchen equipment from my mom: a nut chopper.  Scott and I were visiting my parents, and for some reason my mom and I were chatting about a few things I was still looking to include in our kitchen.  In particular, I told her that I had been on the prowl for a nut chopper like hers.

Lime Whip Pie

Several weeks ago, my friend Beth and I had a conversation about our love of key lime pie. At the time, I was freshly returned from a trip to Maine, and was still thinking about the blueberry cream pie I had made while there. I decided the blueberry pie was a prime candidate for a lime flavor intervention.

Lime Curd

I first tried to make lime curd several weeks ago.  I had 3 egg yolks (from another cookie experiment) and was determined to make a small batch of curd with them.  It was a miserable experiment!  I learned that lime curd is just one of those things that you need to make a little more of to get it just right.
