I should seriously already be asleep right now because I’m anticipating getting up at 4:30 am, and not only that, but will be running about 12 miles. So why I’m not sleeping right not is surely some kind of masochism on my part, but I really wanted to post this a little early because Saturdays […]

Chocolate-Cherry Cupcakes
I’m back to my old ways again. Shoot!! But, with Valentine’s Day coming up, there are just so many desserts I have to try. But today I’m going to practice some self discipline, and I’m not going to let myself make the Strawberry Cream Cheese Tart I want so badly to make until I try […]
Best of 2011
Best of 2011 I can’t believe how fast this year went by, and since 2011 has come and gone, I wanted to share some of my favorite recipes from the year. Just a forewarning, there is a lot of them. I’ve tried to narrow them down, and have narrowed down as far as I dare […]
Strawberry Nutella Muffins
I remember the first time my friend told me about Pinterest. I heard her describe the site and continued to wait for what made this particular webpage so intriguing. My response, “So, basically, you just tag pictures?” A little frustrated, she told me she was going to send me an e-mail invite and just to […]
Owl Cupcakes
I made these cute little cupcakes for a friends baby shower yesterday and wanted to quickly post them. Sorry about the picture. I had literally 2 minutes to throw these on a plate and take a picture of them before I had to load them up and head to the shower. So I would have […]
Sausage-Cornbread Dressing
Yay, finally back to normal!! I don’t know about everyone else, but I have been having such a hard time getting anything done with hubby and kids home over the Christmas break. My husband is like having a 4th kid. Between all four I am constantly having to entertain and get them out of the […]
Salted-Caramel Six-Layer Chocolate Cake
So first I want to start off by saying, I have the best followers ever!! If you missed all the commotion yesterday, I found out that another website stole another one of my pictures and claimed it as their own. The difference being, the first blog that stole my picture was a little whole in […]
How To Keep Pests Out Of Your Flour
I finally did it!! We were at Costco the other day, and I finally committed myself to buying a really large bag of flour. 25 lb. to be exact, and that wasn’t even the biggest size they had!! I just figured, I go through enough flour that it warrants not having to run to the […]
Garlic-Rubbed Grilled Cheese with Bacon and Tomatoes
I’m posting this in a bit of a rush today. We are having my daughters 6th birthday party today, so in about 3 hours I will have about 15 little girls going crazy at my house. My daughter insisted on a Valentines theme, so I still need to finish up her cake and make the […]
Homemade Samoas Cookies
This past weekend has been such a whirlwind. For the past year my hubby has been training MMA (mixed martial arts) at the gym. But at the end of last year he informed me he didn’t want to just use it to get in shape, but he wanted to put his skills to the test […]
