I’m taking a quick break from all the sweet happiness I’ve been blasting your email boxes with to share one of my other great true food loves: BUFFALO everything. Buffalo Croutons.
And you know, when sorting through my archives for other buffalo recipes, there aren’t that many! Which is weird because if it has buffalo sauce I am there. With blue cheese? Even better.

#1- Let’s start with Norma Kitty Jean this week. Because she’s stuck in this box.
It must have seemed like a good idea at the time.

Today is a really really REALLY special day. It kind of blows my mind, actually.
This day, 13 years ago, I became Andrew’s mom.
These brownies.
Okay let me just start by saying that I totally fell victim to a very accurately placed display while shopping for wrapping paper the other day. My arms were all full of discounted polka dottiness and on my way to the cash register I nearly walked into a giant tower of Hershey’s bars with boxes of graham crackers on either side. Those marketing people have my number.
It wasn’t until I got home that I realized they forgot the marshmallows.

Hey hey! It’s Monday!
That means that this post is the only thing I have to look forward to.
#1. I found the most amazing thing in the universe: Moon Pie Coffee.
Okay, well maybe there are other things that are better… like brownies. Or Nanaimo Cheesecake Bars. But you have to admit that Moon Pie Coffee sounds pretty freaking good. I was excited and skeptical all at once because I thought it might be too good to be true, but I have it on very good authority from a reader on Facebook that Moon Pie Coffee is the real deal. Let’s all get some, shall we?

I am so very fortunate to have the most amazing readers and friends evuuurrr. Really.
Sometimes I am even so lucky that I get cool things in the mail. Do you even know how joyous it is to get something in the mail besides junk addressed to the person that lived here before we did 4 years ago?
Okay. Stop right there.
I need to tell you that I DO know you can’t really lighten up loaded cheese fries. But I made a helluvan effort here and the results were FANTASTIC.
This plate of cheese and bacon covered goodness started out as roasted rosemary potatoes cut thick like steak fries.
But then I didn’t feel like cooking dinner.

So by now you guys all know my words to live by: If you can read, you can cook.
And it’s true!! You can turn out some pretty freaking amazing food just by following a simple set of instructions. This Biscoff Banana Bread is no different.
When I was little I used to sit on the kitchen floor and spin my mom’s Lazy Susan (Did your mom have a Lazy Susan? I thought that thing was so cool– like a secret corner cabinet full of things that my mom only sometimes used. And who was Susan? I think I’d be slightly peeved about that Lazy Susan label…) round and round looking for her stack of cookbooks and that little orange box of baking soda.
