This bread combines the cinnamon-y goodness of a Snickerdoodle cookie and Hershey’s Cinnamon Chips (my favorite!) and puts them in a moist, sweet, and buttery bread. And the crispy cinnamon and sugar topping sends this over the top. Thank goodness the recipe makes 5 mini loaves because my son and I ate an entire […]

I saw this idea on Pinterest and loved it. Unfortunately it was just an image on Pinterest so I don’t know who to give credit to. Regardless, I knew we had to try it out on our next camping trip. And it was perfect! My kids and I could wash our hands without having to […]

We have another delicious camp fire treat for you today. (I told you we loved our Pie Irons.) These are similar to our Campfire Apple Pies but because we called them Pop Tarts, we could eat them for breakfast. Ah heck, who am I kidding, we ate the Campfire Apple Pies for breakfast too. They have […]

So when I was perusing Canela Kitchen (my Secret Recipe Club assignment for this month) and came across Gloria’s post on Oven Zucchini with Cheese […]

I pinned this recipe quite some time ago and put it into my “Fun Food Ideas” board. I mean, seriously, of course I was going to make it. They are adorable! And with the movie Turbo coming out, I figured it was the perfect time to surprise my kids. My son wants to see Turbo badly. […]

My son’s birthday party was a huge success! No thanks to the internet and the lack of Nerf food out there in blog land. But we managed to figure it out and my son (and his friends) had a blast. (No pun intended.) We sent out the invitations. Tiffanee from One Crazy Cookie made our […]

Summer + warm weather and you know what that means – zucchini! And lots of it. We LOVE zucchini! It’s probably my favorite vegetable because you can serve it so many different ways and do so many things with it. I know this isn’t the healthiest of ways to eat this delicious vegetable but it […]

For Halloween do you do silly fun or gory? We always do silly fun but I do like a little bit of the gross. So when I saw these cupcakes over on Pinterest (my new love) from Cakehead Loves Evil I knew we had to make them. Totally cool, right?!?! We made stained glass candy […]
I have a little thing about vampires. I was about to write “I’m embarrassed to say” but I’m not. What the heck. I’m obsessed. I said it. Seriously, I am. It all started with the Twilight books and has gone a little out of control since. =o) If you need to know a good book […]
Are these the cutest cookies EVER?!?! Not to toot my own horn. Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t invent this recipe. I just stole it =o) But how could I NOT steal it, right?!?! After I saw this cookie on Raina’s blog The Garden of Yum I knew this was the next cookie I was […]
We had so much fun making our Turkey Cookies with Nutter Butters that we wanted to make another Thanksgiving cookie. I think this one turned out much cuter than the other Turkey Cookies! I mean seriously, look at these little guys. too cute! I used the candy eyes which are my new favorite thing to […]
I’m not even sure I can type this post. I’m laughing too hard. ‘Cause seriously… this meal cracked me up. But even more hysterical than these totally adorable weenie men (that I found over on Casa de Luna) is the conversation that I had with my son. Are you ready for this??? My son: […]
I haven’t done a single thing for the 4th of July =o( Where have I been??? We typically don’t do much for the 4th, though. It’s always been one of those holidays where I’m frustrated because of all the loud noises that keep waking my kids up! Does that make me grouchy? =o( But a […]
Do they look like hot dogs? Of course they do. But are they? Well, sort of. They’re hot dogs, but not the kind you eat for lunch. You eat these hot dogs for dessert! I found the recipe for these over on The Seven Year Cottage. I changed it up just a little bit. They used […]
This might be the last of our Easter treats for this year. But seriously, don’t hold me to that. Sometimes we just bake on a whim so there might be more =o) So guess where I saw this cute idea. Give up? It’s another Family Fun magazine idea. I am totally in love with that […]
