Two friends, miles apart, who love to bake!
It’s official, I’m an adult. I got a Sonicare for Christmas. It was seriously the only thing I wanted. You know you are getting older when your wish list is created for practicality reasons. And although I would have been very content with just my …
Is anyone else addicted to Pinterest? You’d think after all this time the novelty would have worn off…nope! I can still can spend hours just browsing. It has so many fun and clever and cute ideas for baking! There are pins and pins of gorgeous, …
