My kids have always been bubble gum crazy, everything they see bubble gum they want. But they really aren't old enough to handle actual gum just yet. Three little girls, long hair, bubble gum… you know where I'm going with this. My oldest asks almost daily when she can start chewing gum my answer is always three years added to her current age, because I'm nice like that. So every once in awhile I ... [ read more... ]

Key Lime Pie Truffles
One of the things I really love about baking and blogging is it pushes me out of my comfort zone.

My abilities are constantly being stretched as well as my creativeness and flavor preference. Turns out the whole worlds doesn't revolve around chocolate and sprinkles...I know, I know, ...
