One of my most loved recipes is for lemon squares. They are intensely tart and fresh tasting, with a thin, buttery crust and a soft, jelly like curd. I’ve become quite the snob about it and barely order them at any bakery, even though they’re one of my favorite treats, because I think these are the best! Every time I bring them to a gathering people ask me for the recipe. Here’s the secret… you’ve probably had it under your roof for ages! Continue reading “Lemon Squares Recipe – Pucker Up!”

Crabby Avocado Dip Recipe
Sometimes I come home and I’m just in a crabby mood. Maybe it’s traffic, maybe it was computer problems at work, maybe the fact that there still isn’t a rabbit just sitting there magically on my couch… but the one thing that can always get me out of my rut is a little creative endeavor. A craft, a new recipe, or creatively watching the Mindy Project while pretending to do crunches on the rug… ok that last one isn’t so creative, but I do love the Mindy Project.

Tipsy Valentine – Chocolate Whiskey Cupcakes Recipe
As you may have seen on Instagram over the weekend, Valentine’s cupcakes were whipped up and doled out to a couple of special valentines. Megan found a seriously tempting recipe that she thought K and B would like, so we tried it out! Though I’m not usually one to go for a three part cake recipe, Megan likes the challenge. (Seriously, every recipe she wants to try is always so crazy!) But this one was worth the work. Continue reading “Tipsy Valentine – Chocolate Whiskey Cupcakes Recipe”
Birthday Cake Puppy Chow Recipe
I love having my girl friends over. They appreciate dessert like it’s their jobs, and since I act like it’s my job to bake all the time, we go pretty well together! Also The Bachelor is back for another season, so we have a reason to see each other weekly again! This called for celebratory sweets when we got together for a viewing party.

Copycat Recipe: Chuy’s Jalapeno Ranch Dip
So as you all know, the Superbowl took place this past Sunday, and my friends hosted a huge party to celebrate! With the Superbowl of football comes the super sized bowls of dip, wings, and every other horrible-for-you food you can imagine. Needless to say, we were all uncomfortably stuffed, but quite content. The exciting game in the background didn’t hurt either! Continue reading “Copycat Recipe: Chuy’s Jalapeno Ranch Dip”
Orange + Almond + Dark Chocolate Biscotti Recipe
Although I had fully intended to put up a post about the preppy, off the shoulder dress I’ve been working on, I didn’t finish it because I was having a BLAST enjoying the to-die-for weather we had in Houston! The cold dark winters really get me down after a while, so my mood exploded into happiness with this bath of sunshine and warmth. Only the weather and a seriously fun bunch of activities with my best friends could compete with wanting to craft and share my fun with y’all!

Soup-er Simple Potato Leek Soup Recipe

White Chocolate Dipped Cranberry and Pistachio Biscotti Recipe
As I freeze my bum off in Chicago over the Christmas holiday, I find myself consistently cupping a big mug of tea in my little hands trying to warm myself up. And nothing goes with a big mug of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate like a good, old-fashioned biscotti. Crunchy, dunkable, and filled with yummy goodies, it’s hard to say no to a biscotti at tea time.
