Flourless Chocolate Cake with Raspberry Orange Liqueur

I'm in shock.

I honestly didn't think anyone ever read my blog, that I was just writing to the void of space that is the internet, only to be seen by robot minds.

But over the weekend Austin Chronicle made a bunch of top ten lists in Austin, and one category was for food bloggers. 

While I didn't actually make it in the top ten, I was listed as an honorable mention, and I couldn't have been more surprised! 

Lemon Raspberry Truffle Cake

This weekend I am at my grandparents house who live in San Angelo. Every year, for as long as I can remember, we have always gone to the Christmas in Ole For Concho here in San Angelo. It's tradition! I was very excited to get off work for it. Even though it's warm outside, the traditions make it feel like Christmas. Lights on outside the house, fort concho, christmas trees and Christmas movies.

We went to a special showing of the movie "A Christmas Story" at Tinseltown this past Wednesday and let me tell you it was fun! I don't know if i've ever watched the whole movie from beginning to end before then, but it always makes it feel like Christmas.
