Baking...With a Slice of Life
So, it’s conference week at Jordan’s school. They have half days all week. Actually, they had a half day a week ago Monday (for report card preparation) then another half day last Friday for the start of conference week, then this Monday just past was a holiday (Veteran’s Day) and now they have half days [...]
There are 57 days until Christmas.54 or 55 if you want to have all your presents purchased, wrapped, and under the tree in time. 57 days. Not WEEKS. DAYS. Let’s not even talk about how Jordan’s Halloween costume is still not complete and Halloween is in 3 days. I am SO way behind this year. [...]
Pssst….registration for Online BlogCon is open! Go check it out! I love coffee. Actually, it would be more accurate to say I need coffee. I am not human, awake, or kind in the morning until I’ve had my first sip. It’s so bad, really, that I get my coffeepot set up the night before, so [...]
Hey, have you registered for Online BlogCon yet? What are you waiting for? Go check it out! If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, or even read me once in awhile, you’ll know that I’ve been part of the red-faced runners (#rfr5k) for the last few months. The “big race” weekend was this one [...]
Okay, so I kinda lied a little. Well, more like, omitted. These aren’t just Pumpkin Streusel Muffins. They are Pumpkin Streusel BRAN muffins. I figured the “bran” part would scare you away. It doesn’t taste like a bran muffin. I promise! I tastes like pumpkin goodness. I know that many of you [...]
So I made you some chocolate twist doughnuts. And I filled them with Avocado Whipped Cream. Are you surprised? Seriously, my addiction to avocados has become a joke in my family. My husband sees me cutting it and chortles “ha ha ha, I’m soooooo surprised we’re having avocado for dinner!” I don’t know what I’m [...]
I have decided that I want to live in a city where I can walk to everything: stores, restaurants, entertainment. Aside from the fact that this would be infinitely more fun than living in suburbia land (where “exciting” is the fact that they are paving the streets around my house soon and we will be [...]
Baking is my therapy. {So is exercise, but that’s another story.} Sometimes I just feel like crap about whatever is going on and I realize it’s been awhile since I’ve been in the kitchen. I go to my oven like a moth to a flame and begin to create and I feel better. My favorite kind [...]
{Pssst…it’s still Almond Joy Week round these parts. You excited??} I love to travel. In fact, if we ever won the lottery (which means I would actually have to play) I think I’d get Jordan a tutor and travel all the time. I love seeing new places, revisiting old ones, staying in hotels and eating [...]
I have a serious problem with breakfast pastries. I love them. A lot. It’s hard for me to go to Starbucks and NOT buy a scone. I also have a serious problem with free things. Like, I get all crazy and my eyes get big and my heart rate speeds up when I’m in Costco [...]
Hi there! I’m Dorothy, the crazy gal behind the blog. If you didn’t already know, I’m crazy for crust…and cookies…and brownies…and pretty much
anything with sugar.
