Deep Dish Peppermint Cookie

It's Christmas time! It's Christmas time! I just can't help but LOVE this time of year. While I try to keep cool on the outside and be you know, the responsible cool headed adult who isn't counting down the days at all...on the inside I'm totally Buddy the elf. I am SO pumped to start popping a little buddy the Elf into the DVD player. “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for ... [ read more... ]

Peanut Butter & Chocolate Cookie Cake

You guys. Our big move to Europe is now just a couple months away. I don't even know where time has went, where did my year to prepare go? I have less then 30 days before the movers come to pack everything up and ship it away. Then we'll be left with an empty house for awhile. Lots of emptiness, and children, and dinners without table. Ehh I'm already losing my sanity thinking about it. And I have ... [ read more... ]

Strawberry Chip Funfetti Cookies

Let's be real here, today I have no words for today's post. Wait a minute…wait a minute…nope nothing. Nothing funny, or sweet, or sad…not even something remotely entertaining.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Pinterest is full of DIY christmas decorations and recipes, Instagram is full of holiday cuteness, and Facebook has more pictures of shining trees and happy kids then one can handle!

Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookie Bark

I'm so excited the Halloween is almost here! Eek! Boo! Hooray! I feel like each year this holiday moves up on my favorites list. As I've said many times before Halloween was never a favorite growing up, and I still am not a fan of gory really creep Halloween type things. But I DO love all the silly things that can come along with Halloween, monsters can be adorable as long as their not trying to ... [ read more... ]

Spooky Spider Cookies & A Review Of Creature Cookies!

This weekend I'm enjoying a little blogger away time in Seattle. And next weekend I'll be headed for a little more away time in Salt Lake City.

You guys have heard me ramble on about fall like my lost puppy right? ... [ read more... ]
