Breaking away from the day to day
PIE! I LOVE PIE! There’s just something about the fruit-filled flaky crusted pastries that makes my heart swoon! (My mouth is actually watering just thinking about pie.) I enjoy combining my love with pies and Valentine’s Day with these Heart Shaped Mini Cherry Pies! Using store bought pie crusts and a heart-shaped cookie cutter is…
In our house, one of our most favorite times of year is Halloween! We love dressing up, decorating the house and doing all things spooky. (This is a very weird thing considering I’m a scaredy cat!) Not only do we like to have fun with scary stuff around the house, but we love scaring up some…
So it’s no secret that I love to eat. My husband and I enjoy cooking together and try new recipes all the time. We are fortunate enough to live in Miami where we can grill 365 days a year. We even grill on rainy days under the patio cover. It’s really so convenient! Now that the…
Ah, St. Patrick’s Day….the day we all wear green to avoid getting pinched and drink green beer until we can’t stand anymore. Wait a minute…that was when I was in college! One of my all time FAVORITE meals for St. Patrick’s Day is Shepherd’s Pie. There’s something about a ground beef mixture with creamy potatoes…
I love winter symbols like snowmen and reindeer! They are just so darn cute! I’ve shared my snowman & reindeer Light Up Jars, yummy Milano Reindeer Cookies, and Nutter Butter Snowmen. Well this little recipe is nothing short of cute! If you’re looking for an adorable and easy treat for a holiday gathering, classroom party, or…
Since this is the season of all things pumpkin, it’s only right that I share a recipe for Pumpkin Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting! (Everything tastes good with cream cheese frosting…) This is a simple recipe that you can make with the kiddos to celebrate the season of pumpkin. It’s almost like a deconstructed Pumpkin…
Valentine’s Day is coming up and whether you buy gifts for the ones you love or you show your love in other ways, chocolate and hearts are the symbols that we all associate with this day of “love.” Why not combine the two? And what better way than with…..BROWNIE HEARTS!!!! This fun and yummy dessert is…
Here’s something you might not know about me…Pepperidge Farm Milano Cookies are my FAV! Not the milk chocolate, not the orange, just the regular Milanos. I even have a science to the way that I eat them…one layer of the bag at a time…nothing more, nothing less. And I save them to eat for my…
My BFFL Beth grew up in a Southern home in the northern part of Florida. (Don’t try to make sense of it…just go with it.) Her aunt would hold an annual cookie bake where family & friends would gather to her home to bake and decorate sugar cookies for Christmas. When Beth moved to Miami,…
The holiday season is all about love, family, friends and COOKIES!! Growing up, my mom made these Snowball Cookies that the family dubbed “Andreas Nutballs” (you had to be there). They are essentially, well, nutballs rolled in powdered sugar. My husband LOVES these! So now, every year, my mom is obligated to make them for…
