Tonight my patience was tested, and I am sad to say that it didn’t win. If my patience had won, these would be much prettier, but I wouldn’t have gotten this recipe typed up tonight. I was sitting here at the table and looked down at my sidekick. Yep, it was time. Neither of us [...]
Mother’s Day is this weekend, and my kids have already started asking me what I want. I love putting my feet up in the morning and enjoying my cup of coffee and a nice piece of coffee cake on the front porch. There is a nest of baby birds in the palm tree in the [...]

St Patrick’s Day is this weekend and we wanted to make something GREEN and yummy! The kids jumped in the kitchen and gave me a hand. So, I asked them what they wanted to make. The Answer: BROWNIES! Hmmm….Green and brownies are a hard combo to achieve, unless you do what we did and turn them [...]
This is an exciting week at my house. My Hubby’s Birthday is Sunday and mine is soon to follow on Wednesday. My Hubby isn’t a picky guy. He loves any cake or sweet treat I whip up in the kitchen. I, on the other hand, am a lover of all things Strawberry and Chocolate. When [...]
