  • RECIPE: Chocolate Muffins

    Funny story about these muffins – I created this recipe months ago, but when I went to type up the blog post, my notes got all jumbled together and I couldn’t figure out which trial was the one. I stared at four separate pieces of paper with jotted measurements and couldn’t figure it out! I was…

  • RECIPE: Red Velvet Mini Donuts

      I love when recipes get created spontaneously and unexpectedly. Willow has been on a HUGE pink kick…I’m talking smoothies, clothes, and coloring everything pink. My favorite is when she drew a picture of our family and gave Josh pink hair. Last week she asked for pink donuts and at first I thought, “how in…

  • RECIPE: Nutty Cookie Bars

    If you open our refrigerator, you’re bound to find jars filled with just about every variety of nut (and seed). Not only are they packed with protein, but they also make excellent milks, cheeses, desserts and much more. I was experimenting with a new cookie recipe and was feeling a bit lazy…rather than taking the…

  • REVIEW: December Favorites

    Happy New Year, everyone!!! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday (to those who celebrated) – I’m wishing each and every one of you a beautiful and healthy 2016! December was a very BUSY month for me and while I didn’t get all the blog posts up that I had hoped to, I am…

  • RECIPE: Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

    In my personal opinion, one can never have too many chocolate chip cookie recipes. There are SO many different variations with flours, textures, flavors and sweetness levels AND each one is delicious in their own way. I shared a sneak peek of this recipe on Instagram and decided to run one last trial and I’m…

  • REVIEW: October Favorites

    I just love the month of October and I think it’s safe to say that it’s my favorite and I’m a bit sad that it’s already over! Perfect weather, beautiful colors, all things pumpkin and cozy sweaters. Just the other day, Willow came up to me and said, “October is fun to say!” So there…

  • RECIPE: Baked Chocolate Earl Grey Mini Donuts

    Who’s ready for another donut recipe?! This may or may not be the last one I share for a while…we’ll see. I’ve been eating WAY TOO many sweets lately – one of the downfalls to running trials for dessert recipes. So, I’m thinking I’ll focus on savory after this 😉 If you follow me on…

  • RECIPE: Baked Coconut Pecan Mini Donuts with Cinnamon-Maple Sugar

    How many of you actually love your job? I’m talking passionate, happy, excited and motivated by the life you’ve chosen. Sadly, I don’t know too many people who would raise their hands. The last paying job (early 2010) I had just about broke me. I was at an all-time low – physically falling apart with numerous ailments,…

  • RECIPE: Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

    It’s the season of all things PUMPKIN!!! My absolute favorite time of year. Crisp air, leaves changing, apples galore and cozy sweaters. And BAKING! After a few months of very limited oven use, we make the switch to roasted veggies, potatoes and LOTS of baked goods…such as cookies. I had this vision in my head…

  • REVIEW: September Favorites

    Hello, friends! I don’t know about you, but September flew by faster than any month so far. Hard to believe that the holidays are fast approaching. You’ll be happy to hear that this post isn’t nearly as long as my Summer Favorites round-up! We didn’t try very many new products and my list of books…
