"my diet starts tomorrow"

'tis the season of 21st birthdays, cake overload & downtown debauchery. yesterday was my great friend & roommate helen's big day so of course i honored it with barefoot contessa's decadent coconut cake made from scratch. 5 sticks of butter later, magic was born in an apartment oven. i bet it doesn't last the week.
cookbooks are such teases..
...


icing=2 sticks of butter, 1 pound confectioner's sugar, 1 pound cream cheese

such a lovely addition to a monday night birthday.


ina garten, you are wonderful.

i love helen more than butter, sugar, cheese & bulldog puppies combined.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SMELLY!
