Life is as sweet as we bake it!
That's a pretty picture, isn't it? I'm not afraid to admit that this was batch number two of cookie dough and about 3 hours later with approximately 18 cookies burnt, squished, flattened, and broken all sitting in the trash can. You might as well count this post as my Kitchen Confessional because I'm about to… Continue reading Chewy Caramel Pecan Cookies
Let me just start off by saying this soup is glorious. And I'm not just saying that because I made it or anything... This soup is a combination of two of my favorite soups! Knoephla soup and Chicken and Gnocchi soup! You might not have heard about Knoephla soup before, that's okay, I was in… Continue reading Dumpling Soup

For someone that really isn't affected by football, these cupcakes impact me deeply. Or maybe it's the double chocolate that impacts me? Or maybe it's the fluffy frosting on top? Either way, it's definitely not the football game on the tv! But who needs that football when you have these cupcakes sitting in front of… Continue reading Double Chocolate Football Cupcakes
Here's the thing: I don't really know anything about football. Probably because I don't watch it. But I do understand the importance of the Super Bowl! How else would we watch the cutest, funniest, best commercials ever?!? Besides the amazing commercials and the fantastic halftime show, I'm really here for the snacks! Every Super Bowl… Continue reading Broccoli Cheddar Twice Baked Potatoes
I know what you're thinking. Brussel sprouts are the worst! I believed that for a solid 24 years.

Throw those away and start fresh… Continue reading Stovetop Brussel Sprouts
