I know, I know... I'm the worst at posting, but I HAD to share this clip of my bacon fat chocolate chunk cookies since it gives me just a teeny bit of joy rn. 🥓🍫🍪 took this stunning video and my small IG algorithm-limited world needs to see how gorgeous he made my baked goods look. And I found a random food holiday I could link this to; March is yayyyyyy... 🤷🏻‍♀️ We've been at our new place for 2+ months, and I haven't baked anything since a lot of my baking crap is still in storage and insanity is an understatement. But I made these cookies with my stash of bacon fat from all the pandemic snack bacon we've consumed this past year, a frozen pack of brown sugar, a random bag of regular sugar, and a small pack of flour on hand. Oh, and day-after Valentine's clearance chocolates (since when did a little bag of wrapped brand chocolates retail for $12?!) One cookie is covered in home-roasted, hand-cracked cacao nibs from real cacao pods that I just NEEDED to order from and the texture and flavor just pop; the cacao gives such a nice crunch and slight bitterness that balances out the sweetness of the milk chocolate bits in the cookie. That process took forever so I totally understand why cacao and chocolate are $$$ And the bacon fat... game-changing ingredient that makes the cookies smell and taste like heaven. I have been cooking with it and using it in lieu of butter for the past year, and I will never get sick of it. Seriously, if bacon fat ever needed a spokesperson, I'm your girl. The touch of just makes the bacon flavor pop, and there aren't even bits of bacon in the cookie. I don't know about you, but I like my cookie edges slightly crisp and the inside chewy, unlike the brand that starts w a "T" and ends with an "ates" that is just alllll crisp 😶😆 I gotta say, this is one of the best cookies ever; if you don't believe me, ask 😘

asked me to help surprise her guy .s.lee with a custom cake for the opening night of .nyc and I said of COURSE because:
1) she is such a sweet friend and has been one of my biggest supporters for the past few years 🥰🎂
2) Jae's pop up dishes were stellar... that dry-aged and those !!! Obviously I’d be exited about the brick and mortar 🍔🍗
3) Jae and said he has "NY swag" ✌🏼🗽and
4) it just so happens to be 🍰🧁

I took the sick logo from .nyc and hand-cut and shaped all these intricate pieces of to recreate it on cake. How did I complete this, you ask? I used two main cutting tools that weren't really meant for cake decorating, but they are fantastic: is a steak knife that looks like a and makes this small blade that was perfect for ALLLL the tiny cuts. Add in catching up on while and decorating, taking breaks to watch with , steady hands and a 💩 load of skills and patience, and you got yourself a triple tiger cake. 💅🏼🐯🎂 No lame stencils or copout cut-out letters or edible printing were harmed in this process. 🤣

📸 cred: 1)
2) .nyc
3) ME! @ New York, New York

Uhhh, I don't see this happening at NYPLs any time soon...

The practice is in line with public libraries’ missions of fostering learning in all capacities

OMG no. Just... no. 🤨🙄

The woman allegedly ate the cake while walking around the store, and didn't want to pay for the half that was gone when she got to the register
