Can you even believe it’s time for red, white, and blue treats already? The 4th of July is right around the corner, so naturally, we’re turning regular treats into patriotic ones, because then they taste better, right?? I remember this time last year vividly. We had a less-than-two-weeks-old screamy baby, and I was so glad…

Ice Cream Sheet Cake
I need to give a big ole THANK YOU to Mother Nature for returning the warm weather to us! I knew that last week’s offering of homemade magic shell was not in vain, and here we are, mid-May, sweating our tushies off just in time to make some awesome frozen treats to celebrate all the…
White Layer Cake with Whipped Cream Buttercream
Another month, another cake. Hop on in, folks– it’s about to get all sweet and heavenly up in here! I’m back for March’s edition of Cake of The Month with a little elaboration on January’s yellow layer cake.

No Bake Candy Cane Crunch Pie

Goodness gracious, this year is flying, and I can’t believe I’ve already worked with candy canes and peppermint extract more than once in the past few weeks. What is this life?? I have been non-stop cookie baking for the last 2 months, but here…
Classic Pumpkin Pie
Oh, heyyy, November. When did you get here?? Wasn’t it just Labor Day and 80 degrees? Actually, it was just 80 degrees last week here in southeastern PA, because WHY NOT throw the people of Pennsylvania who are expecting crunchy leaves and cool crisp air for a huge loop? I was just reminded (thanks to…
Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
Lucky us, sinus infections and an ear infection swept through our household like wildfire last week. It started with Matt, then he started feeling better, then I started up with it, and he regressed. Needless to say, we were snotty, sneezy, coughing messes all last week, and thankfully, somehow, the little dude has stayed healthy…
