Books & Signings

I’ll start with the signings.

King of Prussia, PA. Short Hills, NJ and New York City, NY.

Three cities in three days…

IMG_2101

… and full of fun.

IMG_2122

… and meeting lots of great people.

IMG_2185

This is Esther. … I love putting faces with the people that I’ve emailed with. She makes the cutest little wire whisk necklaces.

You must check them out.

IMG_2134

… King of Prussia had lots of little cutie pies in the store.

IMG_2143

Lots of them.

IMG_2171

Lots.

IMG_2157

Including these charmers. So cute in their matching tees.

IMG_2243

Even the Williams-Sonoma folks joined in on the fun. This is Brian and Mandy. Loved them.

IMG_2280

Then in Short Hills, I met more wonderful people. These folks welcomed me with smiling faces.

IMG_2484

And cute cupcakes. The lovely young lady in the pink scarf above made these. We may or may not have shared a cry.

IMG_2347

This is Melanie. She’s a Pop Star of the Star Wars variety. Check em out.

IMG_2354

Look at these two. Stylish. Both of them.

And these two. Smiling and having a great time, despite getting in a little car accident on the way to the signing.

So glad no one was hurt.

IMG_2413

I love these photos. Trying to get everyone to look at the same camera at the same time is easier than it sounds.

IMG_2425

Side wave.

Bye New Jersey.

IMG_2522

Hello New York.

Again… everyone was so fun.

IMG_2524

Including their sweetly painted fingernails.

IMG_2568

Families came out together.

IMG_2571

And young bakers did, too. This is Kaira. Another Pop Star.

IMG_2592

And here’s Nora. If you remember seeing the Cupcake Kabobs all over the web… well, she started that.

IMG_2651

Laughter all around.

IMG_2664

And look – it’s Rachel from Cupcakes Take The Cake. I was so glad to finally meet her. If you love cupcakes and you don’t know about this site, or you’ve been under a rock, let me introduce you.

New York was a fantastic way to end the Book tour – or so I thought.

There will be one more recap and then that’s it.

I hear a bunch of you cheering because that finally means more baking … right?! YAY! YAY! YAY!

Anyway… Toronto is coming up this weekend. And it turns out I’ll be at two locations.

If you’re in Toronto, and can’t make the Williams-Sonoma signing on Saturday, I’ll also be at Teatro Verde at 4:30 pm on Friday. Hope to meet you guys.

And as usual… if you attended a signing and see your photo in one of the slideshows below, feel free to use it. Thanks again for making the tour so much fun.

  9. White Christmas, which is a mix of cereals, peanuts, M&M’s, pretzel pieces all covered in white chocolate. We call it Christmas crack b/c once you start eating it you cannot stop!

  10. Cookies! Any kind is fine…

  11. Date Balls!!

  12. I would like to give this for my friend Svetlana

  13. Fudge. Mommy made marshmallowy fudge. Yummmmm. That, and anything with pumpkin.

  14. Oh my goodness…. just the plain sugar cookies with the powder sugar icing…. yum.

  15. My dad’s gingerbread men! He makes them every year, they are 9 inches tall, and he decorates each of them to look like us! It’s really Christmas until I get to bite the head of a huge gingerbread man!

  16. I cant wait to get my moms, homemade hot chockolate with whipped cream and her pear-cake :) she makes the best pear-cake ever :)

    It’s a white cake (sponge base), on top of that you put pears from a can (each half cut up in 3 – 4 strings)it’s good to use the juice from the can to moisten the base, on top off that you add a delicious chockolate cream wich is made of…

    3 eggs (only the center, egg yolks or what ever its called in english) , 250 ml of cream (whipped) ,4tbsp powedered sugar and 50 g dark chockolate.. :)

    you start by whipping the eggs and powedered sugar together untill its very light, then you add to that very carefully melted chockolate.. and then you add to that the whipped cream .. also very carefully :)

    when i make the cake i chop up some chockolate and put on top for decorative purposes :)

    The best chockolate you can find for this recipie is icelandic dark 70% chockolate from Nói Siríus.. i think you can buy some from http://www.nammi.is
    Icelandic chockolate is so good :) you all should try it! ;)

When we were little my mom didn’t have alot of money but she knew how to make fun stuff for us….she had this thing where she melted white chocolate and poured it over pretzels and peanuts..let it harden and viola!! Its the perfect blend of salty and sweet. Now that we’re older my sisters and I don’t make it until the holidays to keep it special!!

  49. Even though I’m 5,000 miles away from home now, I still make mince pies for Christmas and my Mum sends me a Christmas pudding. And yes …. I bake a fruit cake. It’s called a boiled fruit cake so it’s a little lighter than usual, more like a fruity cake than a house brick!

  50. I’m such a chocoholic-it’s got to be fudge!! My favorite once a year treat!!

  59. I already ate dressing to my heart’s content, so I’m not sure what is left. Perhaps a Peppermint Mocha?

  60. I can’t wait to eat my mother-in-law’s custard pie! :)

  61. I could pumpkin roll all day every day, I just wish it didn’t disappear so fast!

  62. I, first, reach for peppermint bark and then it is on to any dessert that I can get my hands on. Good thing I am training for a marathon so I can eat these wonderful extra calories. Hee hee

  187. Pecan pie! Love it and I didn’t get to have any for Thanksgiving. So, we’ll have to have some for Christmas!

  188. I am SO BUMMED – I had no idea you were going to be in KOP! I need to pay more attention.

    I can’t wait for cookies, especially my favorite 7 layer bars. My cousin made them last year for the first time in I don’t know how long, and the first bite took my right back to my childhood. I’M making them this year and from here on out! :-)

  189. Butter cookies! It may sound silly, but for the past year I’ve lived in a third world caribbean country where there is literally nothing to bake with. I can’t wait to make the simplest things! And well, try to make a cake pop too!

  190. Mint anything!

  191. Venetian Cookies. My grandmother made them every year and I have tried to keep up on that tradition

  192. Wow! I would love to have your beautiful book signed, it would be the best X-mas present ever. I`m really looking forward to eat my mother`s baklava :))

  193. My husband’s grandpa makes caramels every year. They are my ultimate favorite Christmas treat.
