MY WAY BURGERS

In our family, we all have different favorite burgers, so burger night brings to our home some relaxation in the middle of the busy week. We have a lot of fun putting our burgers together and competing for the best variation. All the condiments are spread on the dinner table: from ketchup to mustard and mayo, sautéed mushrooms, roasted peppers, olives, cheeses, tomatoes, sauerkraut, onions to home made burger buns. And the freshly baked buns are spreading the mouth watering aroma from the kitchen to all parts of house. Now the fun begins! Whose burger will be the star tonight?

I will post hamburger bun recipe in one of my future posts.

DIVINE CAKE

The best way to get a really good reliable recipes is by getting them from family and friends. My high school friend Marusa send me this recipe. She thought it would be a nice addition to my blog. The original recipe is slightly different, but I always like to do recipe modifications. Even though we don't like it, when cooking, sometimes we have to compromise. To me it is a cooks' greatest and most useful skill when they know how to replace ingredients they don't have with ingredients they have on hand. This is the case in this recipe. I couldn't find puff pasty in the store, so instead I decided to use pie crust. I posted both recipes for you to decide which one you will like to try!
