{Hey MBA Friends! I’m participating in a little photo contest for Le Creuset! If you’re on Pinterest, I’d love for you to head over and “like” my photo (if it’s yo...
I have never been and probably never will be a morning person. Instead, I’m that person who sets their alarm to buzz about 30 minutes before I have to wake up just so I can hit the snooze button seve...
I have a bit of a hoarding issue when it comes to recipes. I have more cookbooks and recipe binders than I have space. And don’t even get me started on the number of recipes I have bookmarked online....

Mother’s Day is just around the corner, so I thought I’d create and share a delicious sweet treat that is worthy of any special brunch. What mom in your life could resist tender Orange Sticky Rolls, ...
Brownies. As you may have noticed, I’ve developed a serious thing for them. Although I may not be the most enthusiastic chocolate consumer around, brownies have stolen my heart and become my newest b...
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you might already know that Brian and I recently traveled to St. Lucia for an amazing week of Caribbean bliss. Being a teacher, I’m lucky enough to ge...
This Giveaway is Now Closed Congratulations to Haley of Young, Fit and Fabulous {Comment #341}. Enjoy your new toaster! You’re going to laugh at me, I just know it. I tend to fork out the cash ...
One thing about teachers – we love a good potluck! As you might have guessed, I’m typically designated with dessert, whether I like it or not. Now, you know I love cupcakes more than prob...
My dad celebrated his birthday on Tuesday and although I wasn’t able to actually take him a special birthday treat – I did make one in his honor. You see, my dad is a HUGE fan of anything chocolate m...

I’ve talked to you before about how obsessed my family is with Girl Scout cookies. Those tiny she-devils with badge-laden sashes are too hard to resist, I tell you. Visions of Thin Mints and Ta...

Hey MBA readers! I’m taking this week off from the blog (more on that later), so I’ve lined up some of my favorite bloggers to fill in for me. First up is the amazingly talented and hilar...
When I was kid, there was an ice cream truck named Mr. Frosty that meandered through our neighborhood on hot summer days. As soon as we heard the familiar song, we would drop whatever we were doing t...
Although I usually bake from scratch, I’m a firm believer that every baker needs a couple of tricks to tuck in their apron pockets. One of my absolute favorite chocolate cake recipes comes from...
I love Butterfingers – I blame my dad for my slight infatuation with these crispety, crunchety, peanut buttery candy bars. Seriously – it’s a problem. Last weekend, I was with my da...

Over the past year as a Keurig K-Cup Ambassador, I have become quite a fan of my Keurig. Before the Keurig entered our kitchen, I’d never been much of a coffee drinker. I must admit, this amazi...
I’ve forever been a procrastinator, it’s kind of my thing. I’ve always needed the pressure of a deadline to get my butt in gear. In college, I was that girl that would stay up for 2...
