Happy start to a long weekend!! Guys, I am in NEED of this weekend and I could not be more excited. It seems that the two-day weekend flies by with chores and errands; not enough time to relax and actually do something fun! But three days…I see some fun in my very near future! Greg … More TGIF – fun finds
It’s another Friday and I have found some incredible ways to make this weekend bring a smile to your face! Summer and binge-watching tv shows just go hand-in-hand for Greg and me. With both of us having the summer off, we like to stay up late and get in as many episodes of a show … More TGIF – fun finds
Happy Friday! Another week down- and as of tomorrow it is officially spring! Just another step closer to Spring Break… and summer vacation! My friend, Lorena, has a son who is a senior and just was accepted into Oregon State. Obviously, we had to celebrate- and I searched online for some inspiration and came across … More TGIF- fun finds
Boredom has gotten the best of me. How do I know? Because I am actively searching out even better chocolate chip cookie recipes- and I actually like the ones I have! But, my boredom might have proved to be useful…because of brown butter. Honestly- it’s a bit embarrassing that I have never made brown butter … More Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Happy Friday- and happy dawn of a new era! I saw this picture on the Biden IG feed and it made me so excited for what is to come- especially the fact that we have a woman…finally a woman…as VP! The history nerd in me loved the fact that it happened exactly 100 years after … More TGIF- fun finds
I love baking up incredible treats for my family and friends- and I pride myself on homemade everything! But, I am human and sometimes that just doesn’t work out. This past week I was tasked with making an incredible dessert for a friend’s (socially-distanced) small birthday get-together and I ran out of time and energy … More Brownies- two ways
Sometimes a chocolate dessert is just what the doctor orders! In all honesty, this calorie bomb would probably NEVER be what a doctor would order, but man- was it tasty! I was inspired to make a special dessert and I jumped on my favorite website (The Smitten Kitchen) to see what my pal, Deb, had … More Chocolate Caramel Cheesecake
It was a short week (thank you, Labor Day!) but it doesn’t make Friday any less sweet! The days are still endless with this Distance Learning thing, but I do feel like I am starting to get into a groove. I hope it continues to get a bit better each week. ❤️ My favorite barista … More TGIF- fun finds
One thing I have loved during these weeks of quarantine have been the community feel that has been spreading throughout the internet. People have been more friendly, more giving, and that includes eating establishments. A lot of restaurants have been releasing recipes of their favorite items so the at-home chef can try their hand at … More Doubletree Chocolate Chip Cookies
