I can’t believe that I’ve been missing out on these amazing cookies all my life. It wasn’t until last year when I teamed up with Kris Voorhees to do a Scandinavian Cookie Class that I was introduced to Lakkrís Toppar. They are basically a meringue cookie with semi-sweet chocolate chips and chocolate covered Icelandic licorice. […]
It’s my favorite bloggy time of the month, Secret Recipe Club reveal. Every month I can’t wait to find out who my secret blog is going to be, and then I stalk all their recipes and going through the process of which one to make. This month when I got assigned to Liz from That […]
Follow my blog with Bloglovin It’s amazing how this time of year tempts even the non-sweet maker into a cookie and candy making machine. Actually it’s quite over-whelming at times which is why I love having a few super quick and easy recipes on hand. One of my go to recipes every year is my […]
If only I could give you the sun and earth, I would. But, I can’t. What I can share with you is probably, no not probably, definitely the best chocolate orange muffins I’ve ever ate. I made these for our Community Gardens grand opening which I mentioned in my last SRC post Double Chocolate […]
If you read a foodie’s blog and they claimed at one time that they couldn’t go a week without a cookie what would you do? You would make one of their cookie recipes of course! At least that is what I did when I got assigned the oh so cute Chelsy’s blog Mangia! But it’s […]

I was sitting on the fence about chocolate covered cherries or strawberries, when […]
Not a one, not a single Christmas treat have I posted. This year my men are on these high protein low carb diets. McGyver for health reasons and the Baby boy because of Rugby (strict orders from his coach). I decided not to bake cookies or anything too tempting, gotta show my support (and I […]
I can’t even express how crazy my life is right now! I’m in the last couple of weeks of part one (Summer Intensive) of school and it seems like I have way more to do than I have time for. Even as I say this, I think, how many times have I said this to […]

Here are some ideas I found on the internet: Candy Cane Martini (from my daughter at Leftovers for Lunch) Chocolate-Candy Cane Cupcakes Candy Cane Cooler Candy Cane Macarons Candy Cane Fudge Candy Cane Cake Chocolate Candy Cane Cookies […]

Monica has a lovely blog, it’s very easy to find whatever you are searching for: recipes, gifts and household/decorating tips. Evidently her son ‘T-Man’ is […]
