2011 Recipe Review {Oh what a year it’s been…}

So, now that I’ve officially been around for an entire calendar year, I thought I’d do one of those round-up posts I see so often. I feel like I’ve arrived! In all seriousness, this year has been awesome. I started off not knowing what the heck I was doing and just in the last eight [...]

Almond Spritz Cookies with Chocolate Almond Glaze

I cannot believe that another year has passed us by. I swear, it was just yesterday when we rang in 2011. When I was a kid and complaining about how sssssllllloooooowwwwww summer was going, my mom used to like to tell me that not to fear, the years would speed up as I got older. [...]

Crazy Sweet Tuesday {and a Giveaway!}

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. Ready for New Year’s?? (Just kidding! The way we celebrate New Year’s? We cheer with New York…at 9pm and then go to bed. I got old a long time ago.) Before we get to the features this week, I have a giveaway to celebrate the [...]

Peppermint Pie

“Honey, let’s run by Ikea.” I wonder how many marital fights have been caused by that simple statement. I bet more than I could count on my hands. You know what Ikea is, right? The Sweedish mega-store that sells everything from spoons to sofas? Pretty nice stuff for pretty low prices. The catch? 99% of [...]

Kiss My Cookie Bark {Peppermint Edition}

I am very spoiled. Within a five minute drive from my house I have at least three grocery stores, three drugstores, a Target, a Walmart, and a Starbucks or six. But I’m still frustrated. Because the closest Trader Joe’s is at least 15 minutes away, plus more in bad traffic. It’s just not fair. I [...]

Welcome to the Peppermint Edition of Crazy Sweet Tuesday. I can’t believe I had over 80 links last week! That’s a [...]

See, I really love peppermint. Peppermint ice cream, peppermint with chocolate, cookies, cake, brownies, pie, candy. Bring it on, I love it. [...]

Whatever Friday {Monkey Bread}

For a long time I had no idea what monkey bread was. People would mention it or I’d see it in the frozen section and just have question marks above my head like a cartoon character. I’d chuckle a little to myself because I’d come up with some 12-year-old boy joke about it’s name. Hee, hee…monkey bread… [...]
