March 1, 2013 3 Comments By Jason

Driving into the Highlands, passing by Gaetano’s I see what used to be an old abandoned building just past 33rd.

Who loves bacon?… Okay… better question- who does NOT love bacon? Bacon is one of those necessary evils.

Coda Coffee- Local Coffee Roaster In Denver Colorado

January 9, 2013 17 Comments By Jason

I … [Read more...]

I made a chocolate and a white cake to fit in with my Mickey Mouse theme. 2. Prepare your cake pans however you would normally, I used two 14” round pans that I greased and then floured. Once your pans … [Read more...]
