I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Never has a combination of ingredients been more of a hit in my house than chocolate and peanut butter. It’s simply divine! And by divine I mean, if you leave me alone with a pan of something with the ever-famous combination, I will (with no shame, […]

I don’t know about where you are, but it’s pouring down rain here. Yucky, nasty, dreary day. Perfect day to stay inside and try out a bunch of new recipes! Not that I’ll have that luxury but a girl can dream, right? 🙂 The other day I was at the store and they had strawberries […]

Geez louise does life ever get so nuts when my hubby is away! He’s gone for 6 weeks at a time to his job in Alaska now and I’m here to tell ya…taking care of a house and three kids all by yourself is quite the job. I barely have time to do anything these […]

Let me just go ahead and get this out there – I’m a huge chess square fan. I’ve never met a dessert with the word “chess” in it that I don’t like. Chess is code word for “awesome stuff”, if you ask me. I have had this recipe idea in my head for a long […]

I read online somewhere today that it’s National Peanut Butter Day? Peanut Butter is reason enough for me to celebrate, how about you? Peanut butter is one of those things that I couldn’t live without if I tried. It’s so creamy (or crunchy), sweet, nutty, delicious. I just can’t get enough of it, especially when […]

You didn’t honestly think I could go an entire week without posting a recipe for something sweet, did you? Good, because if you did you don’t know me at all. 🙂 My middle child’s birthday was last week and she decided to be particularly difficult in deciding what she wanted to take to her class […]

I hadn’t planned to share this recipe with you, at least not this year. I made them for the first time last weekend during our marathon baking/candy making day here at my house and after the first taste I told myself there was no way these babies weren’t going on the blog. Each year my […]
