Two friends, miles apart, who love to bake!
Happy Monday friends! Don’t you just love Mondays?? Oh wait…maybe that’s just me. Since I work a weekend shift, technically Mondays are my “Fridays” and I end up the most chipper person at work! But in case you’re like the rest of the world and …
“Embrace the current season of your life.” -Gabrielle Blair February 2014 is almost over… what?!? I feel like it was just Halloween and now you can see St. Patrick’s Day decorations all over the grocery store! This year is flying by, of course every year …
Well Stephanie, I guess I take the cake on baking procrastination… In my defense, I made this specifically for Valentine’s Day at the office but just haven’t blogged about it until now.

Okay…is anyone else as much of a procrastinator as me? I’ve been mentally preparing to make these brownies for at least a month. I’ve even had the ingredients purchased and sitting on my counter for two weeks. Yet somehow, here I am. February 13. Just …

Happy World Nutella Day! It is incredibly random that we have a World Nutella Day. Seriously, who comes up with these kinds of days?? Not that I am complaining. As previously mentioned more than once, I am a Nutella addict. And if there is any …
If Kelly has a Nutella addiction, I have a peanut butter addiction: on my toast at breakfast, with an apple at lunch, by the spoonful for a snack, on my ice cream at night…it’s a daily necessity. I recently found this honey peanut butter from …
It was requested that I bring something with chocolate into work. Something with chocolate but without peanut butter… weird, I know, because peanut butter and chocolate is the ultimate pairing but that was the request. I thought of making a cheesecake or brownies or chocolate crinkle cookies with the powdered sugar on top. Instead, I settled on oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Why? Because I like them.
