Breaking away from the day to day
So just yesterday I was at BJ’s Brewhouse with a friend celebrating small victories and giving her an update on a parent meeting from school. After sharing some appetizers and salads (and of course Prosecco!) we were approached by the waitress about $3 Pizookies. Um, yes, please! Although I was trying to be “good” and…
Thank you to TruMoo Chocolate Milk for sponsoring this post. One of my all time favorite desserts is rice pudding. I love the creaminess paired with the tenderness of the rice. I rarely make it because I will eat the entire container myself! As a room mom for The Nag’s class, I was recently…
You have decided, or someone decided for you, that you will set up the candy buffet, dessert table for a party or event. The very thought of it makes you tired. You browse through websites, DIY craft sites, and search the internet for an idea of something you can do that looks polished and put…
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…
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…
Chocolate and peanut butter go together like well, chocolate and peanut butter.

Maybe I should keep a few in my purse in case of emergency. Maybe not. They’ll…
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…
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…
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…
