My kids are pretty picky eaters. Surprise surprise. Are there kids that don’t go through a picky-eating stage? One of my go-to dinners is a super easy white chicken chili. That’s a recipe for another day. Anyways, my kids hate it. (Don’t listen to them though, everyone else loves). Anytime I make chili, I have… Continue reading Sweet Cornbread
Wow is that a mouthful or what?! Have you guys heard of Cocoa Bar in a Jar? If you love coconut, chocolate, and peanut butter, than you are in for a treat.

A few years ago, my husband was interning at Qualtrics in between years at business school. We had such a fun summer there despite my awful morning sickness.

I love cake in all forms. Layered. Sheet cakes. Cupcakes. Bundt cakes. Pancakes. Most especially, pound cakes. I’ve been racking my brain for weeks trying to create a new cake for Easter, but bunnies, marshmallow peeps, chicks, and carrots just weren’t appealing to me. I wanted something that 1) you would actually make, and 2)… Continue reading Lemon Pound Cake
Growing up, Sundays were always a baking day in my house. Of course, it was also a napping day. I don’t know why 3 hours of church always wore us out! Maybe it was church, or maybe it was that amazing Sunday dinner my mom always cooked. As soon as I woke up from my… Continue reading The PERFECT Chocolate Chip Cookies
Everyone loves roses on cakes. At least when you’re a kid, that’s the thing that was fought over the most on the store bought birthday cake. “I want a blue rose, I want a red rose.

My husband and I gave up going out to eat on Valentine’s Day a few years back. The restaurants are over-crowded, the wait is long, and I’m away from the rest of my little loves back at home! So I had this crazy idea last year to create a cake that epitomizes Valentine’s Day that… Continue reading Sinful Strawberry Buttercream
