3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies Pin me! – Pinterest Watch me! – Youtube (Coming soon) It seems like I’ve been throwing out DIY posts right and left lately so I think it’s about time for a recipe.

S’mores Cheese Ball
S’mores Cheeseball Watch this recipe – (Video coming soon!) Pin this recipe – Pinterest It’s hard for me to think about a S’more without thinking of the smell of a campfire and the sounds of crickets chirping and the stillness of a star-filled sky. S’mores definitely bring me back to being a kid and sitting around the fire pit. It was early on when I learned that there are two kinds of people in the world: Those who like their marshmallows a nice golden brown, and those who like their marshmallows burnt. I happen to be in the “burnt to a crisp” category. If you prefer golden brown, then we can’t…

White Mountain Cake with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting
White Mountain Cake with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting I’m a little behind this month so thankfully I found this recipe that I had never posted this past summer. This recipe is for White Mountain Cake. This cake is very special for me for two reasons. Firstly, this cake recipe comes from a long time family friend who passed away a few years ago. His name was John but everyone called him Jack. He suffered from a stroke when I was a teenager and I’d go to visit him in the nursing home often. I’d always sneak in a coffee and donuts. The stroke had left him unable to speak correctly.…

Lemon Blueberry Crumb Cake
Memories of Nana When my Nana passed away, she left me all of her recipes. These ranged from cookbooks to handwritten cards with notes on the back which are so exciting to read. These recipes are very special to me. I love that when I open them, they still smell like her house. It makes me feel like even though she has passed, she’s still with me in the kitchen. Every time I open the recipes I can still see my Nana walking around the kitchen in her Clark’s slippers. There are so many things that I still remember about her. The way she’d wave her neatly manicured hands in…

Warm Biscuit Dough Caramel Apple Dessert
Biscuit Dough Caramel Apple Dessert Spring has finally sprung and tonight is man night out our house! Are you wondering what man night is and why I’m so excited about it? Man night happens at our house about once a month. It is a special night where my husband and son watch movies all night and pig out on junk food. My husband will call man night sometime in the middle of the week. Once this happens I hear the two of them secretly talking about what snacks they will get and movies they want to watch. I hope someday my son will look back and remember this special time he shared with…

Pumpkin Pie Frappe
Pumpkin Pie Frappe Pumpkin season starts next month and I am Kicking it off with my Pumpkin Pie Frappe. My sister and I are pumpkin fanatics. We patiently wait all summer long for pumpkin season to come rolling in and when it does we are usually the first ones in line for some sort of pumpkin treat.

I think they will start serving all their pumpkin treats the first week of September. I can’t wait! Sugar spice and everything nice is…
