Breaking away from the day to day
I’m a sucker for Oreos. But I’m a weird Oreo eater. Either I eat only the cookie (the frosting is NOT my favorite part) or I eat the whole thing dipped in ice cold milk. I also love them crushed up on ice cream…or in ice cream. I’m really not picky about that. I’ve also…
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…
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…
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…
Hey all you “exhausted moms!” Do you need to bake cookies for a fun family gathering? How about the last minute bake sale at soccer? Yeah, you can go and buy that really convenient pre-made cookie dough that you just plop on the pan. They are awesome for a quick warm cookie fix, but where’s…
As a mom, I like anything that’s going to make my life easier. It’s really not because I’m a mom…it’s just because, why do something the hard way when there’s an easier way to do it? When it’s time to show off my “mommy skills” and make something special for my kiddos, I like to…
There really is nothing better than a warm cookie with a cold glass of milk! This has got to be one of my favorite desserts of all time. Oh my goodness….I can almost taste them! This recipe for 3 ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies are really simple to make with the kids. Not to mention they…
Do you love Halloween? I love everything about Halloween! The costumes, the candy…..the CANDY! My family is just as excited about the upcoming holiday as I am. We love decorating the house, throwing around ideas for costumes and making special treats to help celebrate. Like these fun Witches’ Hat Treats! Using items that can be…
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…
Hot summer days call for cold treats. Our favorite summer day is the 4th of July. As we celebrate our country’s independence with BBQs and fireworks, what better way to cool down than with Red White and Blue Ice Cream Sandwiches? These easy to make yummy treats will be a hit for both the…
