Every year I say I’m not going bake too many varieties of cookies and treats for Christmas. I’m going to keep it simple. Hah, I think you all know me well enough to know how that goes. My list is up to about 10 already. Ooops. But I can’t really narrow it down when we

Kitchen Holiday Gift Guide {My Favorite Essentials}
With Christmas just a few weeks away, I wanted to share some of my favorite kitchen essentials that would make perfect gifts for your loved ones (or yourself). There are so many items I would like to share with you but I tried to narrow it down as best I could to my very favorites.
Mint Chocolate Mocktinis
I’m back at it with Breyer’s and I’m bringing this deliciously simple Mint Chocolate Mocktini recipe. Isn’t it so stinking festive!?! I don’t know about you but I’m the kind of person that can eat ice cream when it’s 20 degrees outside. Ice cream for life. For those of you who don’t quite share my

Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes with Coconut Pecan Streusel

Salted Caramel Mocha Cookies
Salted Caramel Mochas are my favorite coffee to date and I crave them on the daily. The first time I tried one (a few months ago) was on a day my parents had the kids and Joel was working so I was taking the opportunity to get coffee by myself and work on some new recipes
