Rich, dark and insanely chocolaty cake layers are topped with a creamy, crunchy coconut-pecan topping. I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate my birthday today.

Banana Bread
Light, airy with a rich banana flavor, this Banana Bread recipe is based on the Joy of Cooking version and is still my favorite. Over the last 20+ years I've played around with stir-ins, toppings, different size baking pans and ingredients. Try different combinations or make up your own and let me know what you think.
FYI, the photo is the Banana Bread recipe with the Pecan Crunch Topping.

Lemon Poppy Seed Rolls
Working in the Southern Living Test Kitchen, I was extremely fortunate to work with some very talented people. Of the 35,000+ recipes we tested in those 6 years, a number pop to mind as being outstanding and one of these is a milk and butter rich breakfast roll. A few weekends ago I was seriously craving these rolls and wanted to see if I could come up with something just as good without any of the milk or butter.

Spotted Cow Beer Pancakes
Didn't you learn in college that you shouldn't let good beer go to waste? So this morning I turned a half-full bottle of Spotted Cow beer I hadn't finished last night into pancakes this morning.
