When we signed up for adoption a few weeks ago, we weren’t expecting to be snatched up so quickly. As it turns out, we were chosen by an established writer/photographer/cook who herself was mentored by the owner of AdoptABlogger.

Stephanie is a graduate student of linguistics in California, but she ducks into and emerges from her telephone booth to become the author of Desserts for Breakfast. I first stumbled upon her blog in the summer, when I saw this Black Forest Gateau (something I hope to try soon). She makes ridiculously beautiful and original desserts, but what really gets us are the complex flavor combinations she uses. Here a few of our favorite examples:
Blackberry, Lemon, and Meringue
Brown Butter and Ginger
Earl Grey, Orange, and Chocolate…be still my heart
Lemon, Oregano, and Blueberries
Mango Lassi, Strawberry, Honey, and Yogurt
Rose, Basil, and Dark Chocolate
Stephanie has agreed to give us much-needed advice re: our blog as we continue to write over the next few years. But we’re just happy to have a cool new buddy. Hey new buddy…mind sharing a few of the mild winters you get in California?
As med students, we probably can’t promote having cupcakes and meringue in the morning every day (sigh…leftover pie is the best part of waking up). But please feel free to become addicted to Desserts for Breakfast.
aw, you guys are so sweet! 🙂
p.s. i would share our mild winters with you if i could, though be forewarned that they’ve been getting a lot less mild in the recent years (ah, global warming…).
I am so happy that Stephanie adopted you all. I think it will be a great partnership…and I think that makes you my adopted grandchildren 🙂
Hopefully one day we can add to the family tree! Thanks to both of you!
