I did a little baking tonight to make up for my chai-related failure. And this turned out rather well, or at least my coworkers seemed to think so.

Vanilla Cherry Walnut Loaf

2 c plain flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 c white sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c butter
2 beaten eggs
1/2 c milk
3 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 c chopped walnuts
1 c sour cherries in syrup
1/4 tsp cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a loaf pan.
Mix flour, cinnamon and baking soda together in a bowl.
In another bowl, cream together the white sugar, brown sugar and butter.
Add in the eggs, milk and vanilla and mix until smooth.
Add in the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring constantly.
Stir in the cherry halves and chopped walnuts.
Spoon the mixture into your prepared loaf pan and bake at 350 for around 1 hour 20 minutes. Just keep an eye on it. Test with a toothpick.
When the loaf is cooked fully remove from the oven and allow to cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes before removing from the pan and placing on a wire cooling rack to cool fully.
Done. Eat.

2010|365: A Design Project
In an effort to keep from getting creatively stagnant as I go through the course of a 9-5 design job, as well as staving off general laziness, I’ve undertaken this personal project.
Every day, rain, shine or somewhere inbetween, I will be making something cool. The results may be photos, design pieces, experimental type, videos, or anything else I feel is worth showing. The only caveat will be that each piece will have to be made that day, even though it might not get posted on the same day.
The end result of the project will be a book (possibly 365 pages long, maybe shorter to reduce costs), which I will make available to anyone who wants to pay for one.

You can track the project at the 2010|365 website or check out everything else I get up here.
