Busby Bakes

thoughts on cooking + eating by one who lives for the daily feast

About

cestmoi

I’m not a trained professional, although I did have a cookie business here in Chicago for several years. That’s on hold now while I try to get it positioned to actually make some money. Meanwhile, since I’ve always got food on the brain, a blog about what I’m cooking and eating.

What I’ve always been into is making food for people. Good food, real food, not that processed stuff. I cook like I mean it, even though most nights it’s just me and the Husband. It’s a love thing.

Questions, comments, suggestions? Drop me a line: christine at busby bakes dot com.

I loathe the term, “foodie.”

    Yeah, but what a great person to cook for/with/to… :)

    I say this as a discerning reader of blogs and not a friend of the blogger, what a thoroughly enjoyable and well presented blog. Kudos CB, keep it up.

    Now how about a batch of espresso brownie points? ;-)

    Excellent blog, Christine! Witty, good photos … and recipes! Keep ‘em coming. I don’t suppose you’d ever reveal the secret to HOT chocolate sables? Never mind … I’m gonna try those chocolate chip cookies and chocolate cake for my fix.

    Christine,
    My first blog experience, pitiful I know. Just peeked in for a moment and forwarded the chedda biscuit recipe to my work to print it out. (Correct we have no printer at home.) I love stuff like that, savory etc. We miss you guys, how bout a visite? Best to your favorite husband. Call us. O sends much love, JB from SF, NM

    A client sent me a box of your cookies awhile back. They were fabulous, and I eagerly await your return to business!

    Saw your link through Stacey Cavanaugh’s face book page, I like your blog. Have you been to Panes Bread Cafe 3002 North Sheffield Avenue, Chicago, IL. I hope it is still good, I am envious of your food access in Chitown and enjoy the blog.
