It’s no secret that I love to make homemade ice cream… Especially in the summer! So, when given the chance to guest post over at She’s Becoming DoughMessTic, I could think of nothing better than to share a few of my tips for making creamy and rich homemade ice cream! It’s really quite simple once…
There are few things better than fresh, sweet strawberries… Except maybe strawberry shortcake. And, if you ask me, replacing the shortcake with brownies makes it even better! Even though I don’t have tons of energy for cooking and baking, I have started to get back into the kitchen a bit. Over the weekend, my mom…
Things are a bit slow around my house at the moment. My husband is doing a great job helping me out in the kitchen, and I have even mustered up the energy to do a few (small) things myself. Baby steps! While I have managed to put a few dishes in the dishwasher, chop some…
Remember when I mentioned yesterday that you should save a few of those Red Velvet Cupcakes? Well, now you know why! Yesterday, I told you about my husband’s love of red velvet cake.

This month’s challenge reminded me, yet again, of the reason that I joined the Daring Bakers in the first place. The challenges force me to try…
I have professed my love of the Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte many times. I love all things about autumn, and I wait all summer for the first cool day when I need to wear a jacket. So, when the first pumpkin spice lattes grace the menu at my local Starbucks, I’m there. As much as I…
I’m sure all of you already know that two of my favorite things are Nutella and espresso. Who’s with me? When I was asked to write a guest post for Flavia’s Flavors, I thought I’d combine the two in a rich and creamy ice cream. After all, Flavia is on vacation in Italy (and I…
It’s time again for my Friday Favorites! I’ve been busy this week getting ready to head out to the Big Summer Potluck tomorrow. Next week is going to be busy for me, too, so I’ve been trying to work ahead on blog posts and recipes. At this point, I am starting to feel a bit weary and…
