Breaking away from the day to day
Do I really need to tell you that I’m ADDICTED anything sweet? Chocolate to be exact… Every time we sail on a Carnival Cruise, the first dessert I order is the Warm Chocolate Melting Cake. This yummy chocolate delight is proudly served in the main dining room and at some of the specialty restaurants on…
Chocolate and peanut butter go together like well, chocolate and peanut butter. There’s something about the creamy salty flavor of the peanut butter paired with the rich and sweet flavor of chocolate…. YUM! These are like THE perfect snack! Maybe I should keep a few in my purse in case of emergency. Maybe not. They’ll…
Breakfast in our house has to be quick, easy and able to be eaten in the car most days. I’m always coming up with new ways to fuel the family on the go. Here’s the thing…my kids are choco-holics! I honestly don’t know where they get that from…hahaha! In the mornings, their go-to breakfast is…
I have a tremendous sweet tooth! I love any type of cookie, cake, donut, cupcake, sugar by itself…. I get so sad when I go to the pantry and I find that my favorite sweets are missing. Ok, maybe not missing, but eaten. And I can’t really blame my family because most of the time it’s…
Your mom does so much…she feeds you, clothes you, gives you advice, kisses the hurt away, wipes your tears, and is your biggest fan. You’ve spent your whole life thinking of ways to make mom feel special on Mother’s Day, why not indulge her this year with ways that she won’t expect. Ways to…
We are quickly approaching the end of summer. The end of long days, hot nights and sleeping in. Since we are getting ready for school to start again, I want to celebrate the end of lazy days and hello to getting my schedule back! (Have I mentioned that I can’t stand chaos and NEED my…
Every day can be a celebration. Things like: “I finally cleaned the house!” or “It’s Flag Day!” For any celebration, I want something sweet…and alcohol, but today we tackle the sweet. Although baking a cake isn’t all that difficult and regular cookies are easy, sometimes we want something even more fun than that. Sometimes we…
“1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12….The ladybug 12 at the ladybug picnic….” I honestly can’t get that song from Sesame Street out of my head when I look at these ADORABLE Ladybug Pretzels! Call it a need for more “femininity” in this house, but I LOVE anything cute! Match…
As I mentioned in my Mini Easter Cakes in a Jar post and my Chocolate Bunny Peeps post, desserts and sweets make me happy on Easter. Which leads to my next yummy treat: Easter Blondie Bars. YUM! I’m seriously getting you ready for a complete dessert table at your Easter gathering! How cool would that…
I LOVE PEEPS! That marshmallowy fluffiness combined with the crackle of the colored sugar….HEAVEN to me! I know that Peeps aren’t just for Easter anymore and you can get them all year round, but I still save them for this time of year. (No one likes to overindulge…) Before Peeps started dipping their treats in…
