The perfect treat for your next Fall or Halloween Party! Made with chocolate sugar cookies, pretzel legs and candy eyes, they're scary delicious!

I think its pretty safe to say that my 6-year-old's favorite holiday is Halloween.  He's been trying to decide on a costume since June, and relishes the thought of joining his neighborhood friends on a hunt for copious amounts of candy.  To celebrate my son's passion for his favorite spooky holiday, I wanted to create a treat that I know he would love.  With a little help from the fabulous people at Oxo, I was able to create these scary-cute Chocolate Sugar Cookie Spiders! As you can see here, I have some great tools from Oxo.  I'm also proudly participating in the Oxo Bake a Difference with OXO for Cookies for Kids' Cancer campaign.  With September being Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and OXO's has launched its annual program benefiting Cookies for Kids' Cancer!  Cookies for … [Read more...]

Rolo Blondies

04.24.2014 == 4 comments

This past week has been my son's spring/Easter break.  Its been a good week, although not very productive for me.  Understandable, right?  It seems like every time we have a holiday, I need to clean out our candy shelf...yes, I have a candy shelf.  This week when I went through our "shelf", which includes multiple jars, containers and bags of various kinds of candy, I made a sweet discovery - Rolos! I knew they were in the candy shelf, but I guess I had forgotten how many were there.  I'm pretty sure they're from Valentine's day, but there's a good chance they're also from Christmas.  Eeek!  Either way, I needed to do something with these.  In my opinion, Rolo's are too delicious to throw away, and definitely still good, so I decided to make Rolo Blondies! The basic recipe I … [Read more...]

Apple cider has never tasted so good! Poured over vanilla ice cream and topped with caramel and whipped cream, its the perfect fall treat!

Apple cider has never tasted so good! Poured over vanilla ice cream and topped with caramel and whipped cream, its the perfect fall treat! Sometimes, in life, difficult days are to be had.  Its inevitable, and completely unavoidable.  As we all know, its how we handle those difficult situations that define us as a mother, parent, human being.  Most often, our patience has been worn thin, our energy is drained, and our emotional tenacity is completely absent.  The feeling of defeat looms over us with the rest of our unaccomplished tasks of the day. This is the life of a mother. Out of these rough days, thankfully, emerge new beginnings.  New ideas, fresh perspective, and the hope of better days moving forward.  The salvation of other mothers who know the defeat, but who … [Read more...]
