Summer rolls, lumpia, curry, and crepes signal the beginning of a much deserved fall break.

English Lunch

After correcting hundreds of essays the past 2 weeks, the Language Arts Department deserves this kind of lunch-lox and bagels and crepes.

Chocolate Swirl Cheesecake

Magnolia Bakery's original cheesecake recipe. My friend Josette said just one bite improved her day. R

Maple Walnut Bar

Maple adds a natural sweetness to this spicy, moist and dense bar.
