Baking...With a Slice of Life
St. Patrick’s Day in a non-alcoholic bite! Baileys Irish Cream Creamer Cheesecake Pie uses Baileys Irish Cream Coffee Creamer to infuse cheesecake and ganache, all on top of a chocolate cookie crust. A delicious, minty pie that everyone can enjoy! I am a firm believer that every girl needs several pairs of shoes. Purses too. [...]
As a dessert blogger, I often get caught off-guard at the grocery store. I have a list and I’m on my way to the milk section when some new product catches my eye. It could be anything: a new flavor M&M, a new flavor Oreo or pudding mix. Even a new flavor coffee creamer or [...]
Red Velvet is perfect for Valentine’s Day! Cream Cheese Frosting is a must, and the Cheesecake swirl adds a little extra something to the loaf. You’re not tired of Red Velvet yet, right? Good.

Have you ever then downloaded the photos, got all prepared to post it…and then got sidetracked by the shiny new other thing you made the next day that you justhadtopostrighthatminute? And then that shiny new [...]
The Fourth of July is coming up soon, which means it’s summer, which means it’s travel season. I love to travel. I love to stay in hotels. And I’ve totally passed on that love to Jordan. We don’t camp. Well, Jordan and Mel probably would. To be more specific, I don’t camp. That’s really [...]
A lot of things go good in pairs: Peanut butter and chocolate Peanut butter and marshmallow fluff Chocolate and coconut Pie and ice cream Clam chowder and sourdough Margaritas and Mexican food Coffee and Dorothy The Real Housewives (of anywhere) and alcohol {for me, not for them} A bath and a good book The Soup [...]
Twice a week I take a class at the gym. It’s the perfect class for me because it’s only 25 minutes. (Sure, I take the hour long classes sometimes. But usually about halfway through I am feeling like I’m going to be sick and I stare at the clock willing it to move faster, which [...]
