		<title>Doughnut Plant</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Please welcome guest writer Michelle who is a fellow foodie, phenomenal writer, and my one and only sister.  She is JDP&#8217;s special correspondent to the New York food scene!
New York is a gastronomical hub of deliciousness mixed with obnoxiously trendy restaurants serving mediocre food.  A challenge of mine this year is not to pigeon-hole myself [...]]]></description>

		<title>Strawberry Tart with Pastry Cream</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Finally, the last of the birthday pie desserts is this strawberry tart.  It is probably my favorite amongst the three (pumpkin-pecan and peanut butter mousse).  The flavors are simple, clean, and familiar but in a surprising and dazzling way.  Contrary to what it seems, it&#8217;s a no fuss dessert.  The tart shell and pastry cream [...]]]></description>

		<title>Peanut Butter Mousse Tortes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

The second dessert I made for the pie birthday party was Dorie’s peanut butter torte.  I loved the simplicity of the flavors which took me back to the candy bars I’d sneak up to my room as a kid.  I’ve always been a fan of peanuts and chocolate, so this dessert especially hit a note [...]]]></description>

		<title>Birthday Pies: Dorie&#8217;s Twofer Pie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It just so happened that one week after the Tiramisu Black Forest Cake, I got another birthday sweet request.  This time instead of cake I was asked to make mini pies.  The birthday boy was more of a pie person and the party was going to be held at a Wii game room, so it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tiramisu Black Forest Cake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Even since it has been made known that I love to bake I have been getting a few birthday cake requests.  I am by no means a professional (yet!) and my skills quite limited that I was shocked that someone would ask me to perform such a task!  However, I felt very flattered and was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy New Year and Updates</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Happy New Year!  Sorry to have slipped away for so long.  I really have no excuse but that I unconsciously decided to take a little vacation from cyber-land.  However, I&#8217;m back and ready to take on the blogging world once again!  Although I&#8217;ve been absent from Jessica&#8217;s Dinner Party for (gasp!) over a month, I&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christmas: Behind the Scenes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It&#8217;s been a bit quiet around here, but I haven&#8217;t forgotten about this little space!  I&#8217;ve been baking like a mad woman for a little cookie project I decided to undertake for the holidays.  I&#8217;m making cookie gift boxes to give as presents and to hand out as favors at various parties.  It&#8217;s been a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vanilla Hazelnut Pound Cake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I knew home baking was starting to become popular in Korea, but I had no idea it had become such a big trend.  I realized this when I went to a bookstore last week and found dozens and dozens of books devoted to the art of baking.  Everything from cutesy cupcake books to healthy vegan [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lavender Shortbread Cookies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s cookie season right now, which means smells of chocolate and peppermint or green and red sprinkles should be filling the kitchen counters.  Instead, I decided to make the most spring inspired cookie in the book.  Maybe my head skipped Christmas and I fast forwarded to Easter.  These purple dotted shortbread took me to warmer [...]]]></description>

		<title>Homemade Bagels and Lox Cream Cheese</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It&#8217;s finally the end of the month.  When I think back to the beginning of November this day seemed so far away, but somehow four weeks went by in a flash.  I&#8217;m actually really surprised at how comfortable I became with blogging everyday.  Not saying that I didn&#8217;t have slumps or one liners, but I [...]]]></description>
