Last weekend we threw a bridal shower for my dearest friend Kez. It was probably the most awesome shower of the century. Except for a few brain farts on my part, but thats only to be expected. First ...
Okay, this is the last time Im doing a pretzel based post (for a few days at least). Seriously though, I have a beautiful cake coming your way sometime this week, so dont worry. Unless youre worried ...
Remember those Auntie Annes Pretzels I made a few weeks ago? Oh what a fateful day it was. There are very few things I would make twice without changing a thing. Those pretzels were not one of them. ...
Im an early riser. Always have been. Not counting when I was 12 and thought it was cool to sleep in. Peer pressure? I dont know. I was weird. The only other people around here that wake up in the mor...
I hope you all remember what tomorrow is. For anyone who was lame enough to forget... ITS MOTHERS DAY. In case you havent caught on yet through reading my fine blog, I LOVE my mom. Shes the coolest e...
My Mom is a picky eater. Its hard to get her to eat her fish. Apparently fish just tastes too fishy for her. I dont know which is weirder, the fact that the daughter is always finding new ways ...
Yesterday I made a cheesecake for my cousin-in-law-to-be Elises bridal shower. A white chocolate raspberry swirl cheesecake no less. It was sitting on the counter all morning after I deco...
So, I have a problem. I feel like half of my posts start like that. I guess I have a lot of problems. But this particular problem occurs when Im starving for dinner and its still like TEN MINUTES awa...
There are two types of days: regular days and crazed, ravenously ferocious, stressful, chocolate emergency days. Guess which kind today was. It all started out when Nemo announced that we would be ha...
I dont know about you guys, but the last few times I have been to the mall there has been NOTHING cool to speak of. I mean, seriously, nothing is even worth trying on. Last time, Piggie and I d...
So last weekend we went up to The Ranch. It was a grand old time as usual. That probably goes without saying considering the fact that I brought funfetti whoopie pies. But even without cookies,...
Im the kind of person who hates making decisions. I know, youre really super surprised cause Im such a control-freak. You would think it would be hard to be controlling if you dont even ...
Yesterday I woke up with a sore throat, and the first thought that popped into my head was REESES EGGS. They were also the second thing that popped into my head. And the third. Well, it was pre...
Guess what, my friends. Easter is in TWO DAYS. Are you feeling unprepared? Are you feeling lame and boring? Do you want to make your guests think that youve been slaving away in the kitchen for weeks...
You guys probably always imagine me sitting around coating my teeth in gobs of frosting all day and gnawing on slabs of toffee. You probably think I work for some kind of fabulous bakery where they c...
Yesterday morning I woke up thinking, "Oh, what a wonderfully normal day it is today! Im sure it will be filled with honesty and truthfulness." Oh how wrong I was. It started out when I came ...
Guys guys guys! Guess what today is! Its my blogs first birthday! It seems like yesterday that you were born, my little bloggy. I remember sitting down among all my dirty scraps of paper with recipes...
In this family, we have a strange way of dealing with stress. For instance, yesterday we were having a Hunger Games party with a complete feast of District 12 fare. I made a goat cheese and app...
So Im pretty much going crazy about this amazing weather. I mean, 80s and sunny in mid-March? YES PLEASE, OBVIOUSLY. But. There is one bad thing about this fabulous weather. One horrible... horrible,...
I would like to know who made up spring cleaning. Whoever you are, I would like to eat you. Not because it would give me any pleasure to do so. I have no taste for cannibalism. But I would do it beca...
So guess what. At home, our internet is busted. I literally cant think of anything worse that could have happened. Okay, maybe there are a couple worse things. Like if you got tied to the bottom of a...
Just the other day, somebody was asking Mom why we put our forks facing down in the dishwasher since they supposedly get cleaner facing tines up. "Just trying to make it child friendly." she ...
So Im finally back from Florida. The moment we drove into Michigan the sky turned a hazy shade of gray and started bombarding us with snow. Typical. As soon as we walked in the door, Tay was like, &#...
Hey guess what. Todays my favorite holiday. FAT TUESDAY. Finally we fatties of the world get some appreciation for once. Or at least some recognition. Okay, okay! So Fat Tuesday isn...
Happy Single Awareness Day, my friends. Or "Valentines Day" to those of you who are more romantically inclined. Now, most people might sit and cry on Single Awareness Day. They might buy them...
Im sure youve been worried about me since I havent posted for so long. Your dreams have surely been plagued with visions of me as a victim of a rabid dolphin attack or lost and floating in the middle...
Youre probably hoping that Im back from Florida by now. Youre hoping that Ill shut up about my endless days of sunshine and beaches and just get on with the food. Youre hoping that Ill go back to the...
I wish I liked football. I really do. But I just cant. Ive been trying to get my brother Tay to teach me how to watch it. I mean, it seems pretty simple. Im way too uncoordinated to play it ("YAM...
That, my friends, is a photo of the best piece of toast in all the land, made with freshly baked sourdough bread. I made it before we made our grand journey here to the land of beaches and retirees. ...
We arrived safely at Gramps and Beanies place here in Florida last night. I know. You were worried we would get in a snowstorm related car accident or die of malnutrition along the way. Youre probabl...
