TABLES AND CONSOLES

For the next week, my posts will be sporadic to say the least.  Angela will be going back to school Friday, so I will be spending the next couple of days enjoying girl time with her and time on the road. I am also taking my computer to the Apple store there because the port system is messed up.  I hope they don't have to keep it!

I will be excited to get back to an organized schedule, which is a must for me! See you soon, full force!

It is no secret that I love tabletops and vignettes, and I love creating and imagining what can be put together to catch the eye.  These are some of my favorite choices from my Pinterest board.  ENJOY!

See you soon,

NEIMAN MARCUS POPOVERS

No one loves popovers more than I do, and these are phenomenal.  ENJOY!


Recipe from Neiman Marcus Cookbook

3 1/2 C. milk
4 C. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 t. salt
1 t. baking powder
6 large eggs, at room temperature

Pre-heat the oven to 450°F

Place the milk in a bowl and microwave on high for 2 minutes, or until warm to the touch. Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a large mixing bowl.

Crack the eggs into the work bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk and beat on medium speed for about 3 minutes, until foamy and pale in color. Turn down the mixer to low and add the warm milk. Gradually add the flour mixture and beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes. Turn the machine off and let the batter rest for 1 hour at room temperature.

Spray a popover tin generously with nonstick spray. Fill the popover cups almost to the top with the batter and place the popover tin on a cookie sheet. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Turn down the oven temperature to 375°F and bake for 30 to 35 minutes longer, until the popovers are a deep golden brown on the outside and airy on the inside.

Turn out the popovers and serve hot with strawberry butter.

Note: The key to making great popovers is having the eggs and milk warm before mixing. It is also important to let the batter sit for an hour before baking it. Popovers do not freeze well, and pre-made batter has a tendency not to work properly the next day.
