Love comes in all shapes and sizes. I probably use that word too frequently, especially when it is my favorite recipe-reference verb, but it’s true! Don’t say it unless you mean it. I am currently loving these sticky orange sweet rolls filled with strawberries and cream cheese, a pair of blue fitted sweatpants from Old …
Bourbon Cheesecake with Boozy Chocolate for Two is the perfect way to celebrate! Rich cheesecake laced with bourbon baked in a shortbread crust is topped with smooth bourbon chocolate for the best grown up dessert around. This is a must-try! So I guess by now you know that in this house cheesecake = love. I …
Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cheesecake Bites are a sweet way to express how much you love the cheesecake lover in your life. Smooth, creamy bites of cheesecake on a graham cracker crust, topped with strawberry sauce and coated in dark (or milk) chocolate! Valentine’s Day is only 3 weeks away! That’s crazy, right? Time to get …
This recipe is like Hoppin’ John meets hummus meets bean dip. I was sort of iffy on sharing it because let’s be honest here, black eyed peas aren’t really beautiful to look at. Especially if you smash them. But then my brother was here and he inhaled the first batch. So I made more and …
Can you believe it’s already December 16th??? The count down is on in my house! I have so much to do before Christmas! There are cards to write, gifts to wrap and school parties to plan. Plus I still have about 20 batches of cookies to make! Crazy? Yes, but it wouldn’t be Christmas without …

In my quest to keep checking things off my holiday to-do list I watched Love Actually this afternoon. It is still tied with Christmas Vacation for the #1 most awesome Christmas movie. Because while I super love Buddy the Elf, you really can’t beat this proposal, or this freak out.
I think that on the second day of Christmas you are supposed to get two turtle doves. But unless we are talking about pecans, caramel, and Dove chocolate, I’m pretty sure no one wants that. So FROM ME, on the second day of 12 Days of Christmas Cookies, you get little cinnamon cut out cookies …
Hey Hi Helloooooooooo! I sort of feel like I haven’t talked to you in forever! Thanksgiving buried me, you guys. I mean B.U.R.I.E.D. I’ve spent all week trying to play catch up and then I get totally side tracked when another Cyber-something deal lands in my inbox. I am definitely the person they are marketing …
Grilled sourdough bread, sweet cranberry relish, leftover turkey, bacon, greens, and Havarti cheese make the Plan-Your-Leftovers-Around-This-Turkey-Sandwich Sandwich the absolute BEST way to use up Thanksgiving turkey. You’ll see it earned its name for a reason! I think that extra long title pretty well explains it. Which is probably for the best because this will be …
