Pizza Poppers {Football Food}

Football season is officially upon us and the boys in my house are pretty darn excited about it. As for me, I’m excited for fall and pumpkin desserts and apple picking but football doesn’t usually get me all abuzz. But I can’t complain too much because it means every Saturday this fall I will get to sleep

Lemon Coconut Poke Cake

Remember the lemon curd from Monday? Well, this is the reason behind it, Lemon Coconut Poke Cake. Not only is this cake super easy to make but it tastes absolutely amazing. The flavor combination of lemon and coconut screams summer and was perfect for the high 90s weather that my mom’s birthday brought. The sweetened condensed

Frosted Zucchini Brownies {Gluten and Lactose Free}

My zucchini supply is finally starting to wind down, thank goodness. As much as I normally like zucchini, I will be happy to not see it for awhile. I had picked the last few right before we were heading out for Kansas City to visit our new nephew and see the Royals play the Red Sox and

Corn Tortillas

A few months back, I shared a recipe for flour tortillas with you all that changed my life. The thought of store-bought tortillas just makes me sad now (don’t get me wrong, I still buy them occasionally for convenience). Considering that I enjoy corn tortillas even more than flour, I knew I would have to

Beaches

This is one of my favorite desserts ever and it’s one of the easiest things to throw together. It’s just one of those nostalgic sweets that bring me back to childhood whenever I eat it. When I was thinking of what to share with you all during Shark Week, I knew this was a must. It’s

Blood in the Water (aka Lava Flows)

Shark week continues and can you tell I love the gore of it all? First cupcakes oozing with strawberry filling and now these Blood in the Water drinks (also known as lava flows but I like my name better). When I was planning this week, I didn’t take into account that two of the three
