Snickerdoodles

We made it back from our Lake of the Ozarks vacation and although we had fun, I am glad to be home. A week was definitely enough nature for this girl! I came home with 35 bug bites, a killer sun burn and a cold that has lingered all week. I’m more of a beach

Patriotic Pudding Pops

Thought you guys would like to know that my computer is back up and running! Yay! I’m pretty sure that was the longest week of my life (dramatic much?). I was getting a bit worried because our Lake of the Ozarks trip is coming up this weekend and I had a lot of new meals ideas/recipes saved

Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies

I’m pretty sure I’m growing a little foodie. The peanut is active all day long but after I eat it is a whole different story. I swear he/she is doing flips, jumps, leg kicks and fist pumps whenever I consume something. And it doesn’t matter what it is, I always get a happy dance from

Oatmeal Creme Pie Bars

We had our big ultrasound last week and everything went perfectly! Baby measured in at the 49th percentile with very long legs…taking after its daddy already. Baby was a wiggle worm and was constantly trying to suck its thumb. It was just so wonderful to see the little one and have that validation that everything

Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream

So, I don’t want to jinx things but it seems like maybe, just maybe, spring weather is finally arriving around here (despite the fact that it snowed a bit earlier this week). It’s been in the sixties the past few days and forecasted for the 70s next week. Can’t complain about that! Hopefully, it just stays

Nutter Butter Candy Corn Bars

I’ve been so obsessed with sharing football food that I totally overlooked Halloween eats. We have been super busy around here and my mind has been elsewhere. I even missed out on starting a 12 weeks of Christmas treats series. Super disappointing since it was so fun last year. But no worries, I will be bringing

This month’s Crazy Cooking Challenge is cheesecake…my absolute favorite dessert! I was kind of excited to have an excuse to make a cheesecake. I have only made a couple in my
