Oh happy day! It’s National Peanut Butter Lovers Day! Well I love peanut butter every day, but I’m not going to say no to a day devoted to the love of my favorite ooey gooey tasty treat. So smear it, spread it, dip it, mix it, or just grab your spoons and celebrate with me! […]

Pumpkin Lactation Bars
The pumpkin craze strikes again, this time in the form of lactation bars. I make lactation granola bars regularly and switch up the flavors with ingredients like various dried fruits, coconut flakes (toasted or untoasted), bananas, etc. I thought it would be yummy to try a variation with pumpkin to switch things up a little. […]
What’s in Season: Apple Crisp
For every type of produce I love, there comes a season where it seems we have that produce in abundance and I wonder, “What am I going to do with all of these zucchini/squash/tomatoes/peppers?” We recently came upon a pretty large quantity of apples, so I made apple crisp. Compared to cobblers, I love crisps […]
Lactation Granola Bars
So, I haven’t posted much since I’ve become a Mommy. I’m on summer break right now, so I can’t really complain about being too busy, but I am enjoying a lot of snuggles and smiles with my sweet little guy before I have to go back to work in four short weeks. I have cooked […]
4th of July Recipe Roundup

Here’s a short list of a few recipes I’ve shared previously that I think would make a great addition to your backyard BBQ. Hope you find something you’ll […]
Million Dollar Pink Fluff
So, I have new obsession, and it doesn’t even involve peanut butter. I know, try to contain your surprise. It’s this pink fluff. I don’t know what it’s really called; I got the recipe from my friend, Amanda (thanks, Amanda!). But it is so delicious and addicting, I thought Million Dollar Pink Fluff was an […]
Peanut Butter Banana Icebox Cake
I am notorious for trying out new recipes on guests. I know they say not to do that, and it makes sense…what if it’s a total flop? But I just can’t help myself. So we were having some friends over for dinner a couple of weeks ago, and I was looking for a new idea […]
Celebrate Pi(e) Day: No Bake Chocolate Cherry Cheesecake
Tomorrow is March 14th, or 3.14. For you math aficionados out there, that’s Pi day. But since this is a food blog, that’s Pie day. 🙂 I’m not much of a pie baker; I usually stick to cupcakes, cookies, and cakes. But recently, I did make a pie for Tim’s Valentine’s Day dinner. I know, […]
Decadent Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies. Did I Mention They’re Skinny?
If you’ve been around my blog before, you are familiar with my unabashed love for chocolate and peanut butter. It’s my go-to combination for sweets, and I’ve even figured out to enjoy them for healthy snacks and breakfast. When I saw this recipe on Pinterest originally, I knew I had to try it…I just didn’t […]
Chocolate Pecan Bars
These. Are. Delicious. Sinfully delicious. And rich. And decadent. I first made these at Thanksgiving with my Mother in Law, but I didn’t have my camera so I didn’t blog it then. They were so good though – Tim’s sister even said it was the best thing she ever ate – that I knew I’d […]
