I have some of the best friends and neighbors who have been bringing us meals for the last two weeks! I couldn’t appreciate it more since I haven’t had the time, the energy, or the desire to even think about making dinner. However, I’ve had no problem finding the time, mustering up the…
Chocolate
Peanut Butter Chocolate & Oreo Banana Pops
These tasty little frozen treats are just what we all need this summer. After all, it’s almost JUNE!! Can you believe it? Which means I get to meet this little baby boy in almost three weeks. Eeeek! But it also means swim suit season is just around the corner. Eeeek, again! Not to…
Crack Brownies
I had one request for Mother’s Day yesterday. These Crack Brownies. Brett had every intention of making them for me, but I got impatient and made them Friday night. Half of the pan was gone by Sunday! Oopsie. I first saw this brownies over at Pip & Ebby and have just been dying to try them! …
Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Pie
This Nestle Toll House Pie is like a giant, warm and gooey chocolate chip cookie! Sliced and served warm with a big ol’ scoop of ice cream or fresh whipping cream, and you’ve got yourself a little slice of heaven. It’s definitely rich and full of all kinds of calories that are hard to…
Earthquake Cake
Brett and I took dinner to some friends that just had their first baby, and I made this Earthquake Cake for dessert. Typically you’d make this in a 9×13 inch cake pan but because most new mom’s are trying to lose the baby weight, and because it’s just the two of them plus the new…
Texas Sheet Cake
Chocolate cake is one of my favorite desserts. Simple yet oh so satisfying. A while back, we went to dinner with a big group of friends and even though we had a reservation, ended up waiting for about 45 minutes to be seated. We were all too busy talking and catching up to…

On Tuesday night we drove to Denver, Colorado to spend Christmas with my husband’s family. We woke up this morning to about seven inches of snow! There are a few last minute things I need to do to get ready for Christmas, but today, is gonna have to be a snow day. Speaking…
White Chocolate Cranberry Pistachio Cookies
We had a Christmas party here with some of our good friends on Saturday night. As I was trying to think of a festive cookie to make for the party, I remembered my sister-in-law Christy’s, Cran- Pistachio Cookies she made last year. I never got around to trying them but I remembered they had pistachio…
Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’m always on the hunt for a thick and hearty Oatmeal cookie recipe. I never thought I would make a thin, flat, and chewy Oatmeal cookie on purpose…I try to avoid those ones. It’s just not how I like my cookies. I like them thick and soft, full of texture and flavor. …
Halloween Spider Web Snacks
Lately Owen’s favorite song is The Incy Wincy Spider. He loves to make his little fingers crawl up the water spout like a spider. It is sooo cute. And I guess it’s fitting to sing a song about spiders around Halloween. I don’t think he’s ever even seen a real spider, but he…
