It’s that time of the week again… Time for my Friday Favorites! I’ve found quite a few great recipes this week that I want to share with you, so let’s just get right to it, shall we? I love Italian food… Especially lasagna. I like to mix it up, though, so I’m looking forward to trying…

I decided to share a cookie recipe with you today. It’s made with Nutella… And mini peanut butter cups. I also threw in some chocolate chips for good measure. They are cookies worth sharing. But, you may be thinking, “Does she realize that it’s the Monday before Thanksgiving?” And, rightfully so. Yes, I am aware…

Following directions is something I have never been real good at. I admit that. Sometimes I am stubborn and I think I know better. Other times, I just fail to completely follow the directions. In fact, just a few days before making these cookies, I was telling my dad that one of my most memorable…

I am really loving the fact that chilly weather is here. I’ve finally had the chance to pull out a few sweaters from my closet. I love wearing boots. And, of course, you can’t beat a nice hot latte in the afternoon. As you might expect, I’ve really been focusing on chilly weather recipes lately….

So, with Father’s Day in mind, I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite father-friendly and father-approved recipes that I came across this past week. If you’re looking for some ideas of what to make…

It’s Friday, Friday… Am I the only one who feels the need to walk around the house singing that horrid song every week when Friday rolls around? I’m really trying to stop, but that’s easier said than done. Fun, fun, fun, fun… I have to admit that I’ve gotten pretty far behind with my RSS…

The hardest part about this recipe was coming up with a name. What do you call fudgy Nutella brownies topped with peanut butter cookies and chocolate chips?
This recipe has been a long time in the making. I have been seeing the brownie/chocolate chip cookie combinations for a little while. Then, a few weeks ago, I saw these Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownies from Evil Shenanigans. They have been haunting me ever since.

It’s Friday already, and it has been a whole week since I had my hand surgery! I am happy to announce that I am doing very well… Thank you all for your concern and well wishes! My fingers have been freed from “the claw” (the name my husband and I fondly named my giant bandage), and, though I have to be careful, I am getting back to my normal activities… Most importantly, I can now type two-handed again!
I will be getting back into the kitchen soon (I hope), which means there will be more new recipes to come next week. In the meantime, though, let’s take a look at some of the fantastic blog posts I came across this week!

In keeping with my 12 Days of Christmas celebration, I thought it would be fun to put together a cookie guide for this week’s Friday Favorites post. Christmas is just over two weeks away, so we’re entering into the prime cookie baking time of the year. If you’re looking for new recipes to try this…

Things have been a bit crazy around here lately. Since her knee surgery last week, our doggy has needed lots of extra attention. She’s not allowed to go up and down stairs, has to avoid all slippery surfaces (easier said than done since we have hardwood floors), and must wear one of those Elizabethan “cone” collars whenever she’s…
