Worst blogger ever award goes to…Me! I know, I know, I have been MIA for 3 whole weeks! I’m so sorry! I’ve been taking 2 summer classes and pinching pennies for our upcoming vacation (which means no excessive baking) and things just got really hectic for a while! I’m back, for a moment, though! SundayContinue reading “These Ain’t Your Grandma’s No Bake Cookies”

Today I was at the grocery store and as I was walking past the apples I began to have this uncontrollable urge to make apple pie. Who makes apple pie in July? Apparently I do. I proceeded to buy some apples, go home, and make this Apple Cinnamon Bake. This is kind of sort ofContinue reading “Apple Cinnamon Bake”

Let me start off by saying I don’t like cake! I can’t explain why, but I just am not a fan of cake. For my birthdays I’ve always requested ice cream cakes.

The other day I was sitting at home by myself and I started to have a sweet craving. I needed something sweet and fast! All I really had to work with was a box of Funfetti cake mix. I have to admit, I’m not a big fan of cupcakes & I didn’t really want toContinue reading “Funfetti Cookies”

If you refer back to a previous post of mine Pesto Stuffed Pasta Shells you will remember that I LOVE pesto! Ohh it’s just so yummy! Anyway though, this is pesto chicken breast so of course it’s freaking fabulous! It’s really easy to make, which is a specialty of mine. You Will Need: -2 boneless skinlessContinue reading “Spicy Pesto Chicken”

As I was home alone today I couldn’t decide what to make myself for lunch. We went out to eat last night so I didn’t have any leftovers to chow down on, but I didn’t want to cook anything either. What I really wanted was something sweet, but I haven’t made my grocery store tripContinue reading “Gooey Butter Cake…or bars or whatever”

In my last post I mentioned that it was my Step-Dad’s birthday and that I made a cake for him…this is that cake…better late than never! He actually picked this cake out and it was probably the EASIEST cake in the whole world to make so I was very happy to make his request. YouContinue reading “Fresh Strawberry Cake”
