I like to show up late for parties, much to my husband’s eternal frustration. Partly I like to show up late because that eternal frustration can be a source of some amusement. When you’re a full foot shorter and 100 lbs lighter than your significant other you can’t really strike up a fair tickle fight, […]
Cinnamon Roll Pancakes
There are certain things people try to disguise as healthy. Like sometimes I’ve been convinced that pizza is healthy. It can have vegetables, meat, cheese, and bread. Sometimes it even has fruit (which I am opposed to, as a rule). So basically it has all the food groups in one meal, and could be eaten at any […]
The Very Best Cinnamon Buns
Crickee crickee, crickee crickee. What’s that? Ooooh right, that would be me, not blogging. (Well, to be clear, that was meant to be crickets, but who really has the art of writing a cricket sound down to an art? – No one – for real – I googled it.) It’s true. It has been a […]
Lemon Chia Seed Muffins
My little sister’s big day is coming up this summer and I’m so excited to see her walk down the aisle, to see my little girl be a flower girl, and just to see my whole family together for the first time since last summer (I know, a lot of families go longer, but for […]
Glazed Chai Spiced Muffins
I’ve been trying to cut back on sweets just a little lately, mainly because my 1 year old is a snackaholic and I can’t even look at a snack while he’s awake without being forced to give him some. My 3 year old was never, and still isn’t, that into sweets, and would take raw […]
Whole Wheat Lemon Raspberry Muffins
I think it’s fairly well established that I am a muffin lover. So instead of rehashing that, can we talk about painting prep? I know, it’s a random subject, but with summer around the corner I have already had to deal with several interesting conversations in my job at a paint store. Take yesterday, for […]
Easter Traditions: Poffert
Happy Saturday!! This recipe reminded me again of how wonderful it is to blog with my sister – while I was planning Easter picnics for the kids, making weird brown gingerbread eggs, and going to concerts, she was hard at work on Easter recipes. Since she gets to go away for the weekend with family, […]
Pumpkin Spice Muffins
Does anyone else have a problem choosing a mascara? I was once again reminded of my inability to choose which one to get when my latest tube ran out. I am a grown woman. I make decisions. I make choices. Some are big, some are small. But why, oh why, am I completely inept at […]
Rhubarb Cinnamon Muffins
I love completing things I’ve pinned on Pinterest. The majority of things I check off are recipes, so it’s doubly exciting when I actually manage to pull off something decor related. I found this fantastic idea on the lovely blog Not JUST a Housewife, and immediately fell in love. I’ve had empty walls in the […]
Buttery Pasta Skillet Bake
I am so happy to have my laptop up and running again! I thought it was beyond repair, but after 2 weeks of despair Carl finally took pity on me and opened it up, which means he found the giant hairball that was clogging the fan and causing the computer to shut itself down every […]
