Let me start this post by saying it is SO good to be baking again! I had a vacation planned at the end of March with a list of 3-4 DIY fashion projects that I wanted to get done beforehand, so most of March was spent finishing those up. Then I came back from said vacation with the flu and quarantined myself in my room away from the kitchen for about a week. I blame it on my body not being ready to not sit by the pool all day anymore. Continue reading “Cookies and Cream Chocolate Cake Recipe”
Do I live a dairy free life? Far from it. Cheese, milk, and yogurt are in my every day diet, and I don’t plan to eliminate them any time soon. Unfortunately for many people I know, this isn’t the case. I’ve found that I know quite a few people who are lactose intolerant, including Kyle, and since his birthday was coming up I realized I needed to try something a little different.

The weekend before last I joined my friends, along with the rest of America, to watch the Super Bowl. I made my version of Chuy’s classic jalapeño ranch dip and swapped out the sour cream for Greek yogurt. After about two hours of devouring it without caring, I realized there was nothing unhealthy about it anymore! Except for the pound of tortilla chips that accompanied it… Small victories.

There’s just something about tea time that rushes me into relaxation. Nostalgic memories of my mother and grandma pouring big pots of English Breakfast and passing around a tray of goodies swirl through my mind every time I sit down for a cup. My siblings and I would come home from school and plop down at the kitchen table to jabber on about our days while scrambling to pass the milk and sugar.

CHRISTMAS. EXCITEMENT. SUGAR OVERLOAD. BAKING STRESS. Words describing me trying to come up with an impressive, yet doable after work, baked good for my work Christmas party this week. Continue reading “White Chocolate Christmas Reese’s Recipe”
With Thanksgiving only about a week away, recipes have been flying around left and right for the perfect turkey, the most incredible stuffing, and some “unique” version of apple pie. While everyone at the store is fighting you for the last can of pumpkin or the only turkey that isn’t 30 lbs (honestly, who has this many people to feed?), I’ve been hiding in the baking aisle just hoarding all the spices and a whole lot of powdered sugar.

Guys, I’ve done a bad thing. I’m currently sitting in front of the TV watching Halloween Baking Challenge, writing this post, and eating Nutella straight out of the jar. Spoon, scoop, mouth. I have no clue what prompted my first Nutella purchase, but it happened and now I’m going through this jar like it’s my job. I probably knew this was a bad idea in the past, but I was incredibly hungry at the store, it was pouring outside and I wanted comfort food, and I finally took the plunge. Well, okay time to commit to this new love! Continue reading “Pumpkin Nutella Swirl Muffin Recipe”
So, this month at work has been rough you guys. Exhausted, and even frustrated on some days, there are really only two ways to unwind: dessert or cocktails… or wine… or beer. Ok, I don’t discriminate on beverages. Continue reading “Margarita Cocktail Cookies Recipe”
