Coconut Oil Rice Krispies

June 17, 2013

So 5 days after my fever finally broke, it has resurfaced in my daughter. Poor thing : / I was really hoping that since I had gotten better without any other casualties that we were all in the clear. Guess not. Still crossing my fingers that my little 5 month old doesn’t catch this thing. [...]

Chocolate Chip Turtle Cookies

June 13, 2013

I hate when I do this. I made these cookies forever ago, took a picture, put them in my blogging folder, and forgot about them. So frustrating! Like I think I’ve been sitting on this recipe for 6 months now. Isn’t that terrible? I liked them though so I didn’t want to just throw out [...]

Homemade Reeses Peanut Butter Cups

May 29, 2013

Reeses were probably one of my favorite candies growing up. It’s a pretty good toss up between Reeses and Snickers. I could go either way. But no matter what my preference, I would always save my Reeses peanut butter cups for last when I was going through my Halloween candy as a kid. The MaryJanes [...]

Double-Chocolate Loaf with Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Spread

May 24, 2013

I used to buy Hershey’s simply because it was conveniently at my disposable at almost any grocery store in America. I never even thought to special [...]

Tuscaloosa Tollhouse Pie

May 20, 2013

My Husband put together our new GIANT trampoline this weekend! It was so exciting. When I was younger I always wanted one, but my backyard was about the size of a 4-by-4 haha. Can’t blame my parents. It just wasn’t feasible. Dave on the other hand, was one of the lucky ones. Nice big backyard- [...]

Strawberry Cupcakes

May 14, 2013

I really wanted to post a recipe for Strawberry Cake last year, but time just seemed to have gotten away from me before I had the chance. This year I was bound and determined to tackle the task even before strawberry season came into full bloom. After all, strawberry cake/cupcakes are kind of a big [...]

Cola Cake with Broiled Peanut Butter Frosting

May 9, 2013

Ever since I was 13 years old I have not drank soda. I just sort of decided one day that I was perfectly happy drinking water with food and to quench my thirst so why waste the calories? I’ve always had this terrible pet peeve with drinking my calories (same reason why I turned to [...]
