Eggnog is, as food inventions go, right up there with kale chips in the running for “worst idea ever”. I told you yesterday I’m not a fence-sitter; I have strong opinions, and this is one of them. There are few worse ideas than a nog made of eggs, and this is a creation no amount […]
Leftover Cranberry Sauce Oat Bars
LEFTOVERS. People seem to love ’em or hate ’em, and I love a good set of polarized camps! I am that person that just has to take a stance on an issue, whether I really feel strongly about it or not, because I feel very uncomfortable sitting on the fence. So here you have it: […]
Saturday Sweets: Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Squares
Who doesn’t love Rice Krispies? Ooooooo, OOOhhh, oooh, pick me, pick meeee! (*waves hands over head*) But wait, what’s that you say? You’ve put them into square form and added peanut butter and chocolate? Ohhh, SNAP. And crackle. And, obviously, pop. I’ll eat that. It’s the strange truth: Rice Krispies in milk give me the […]
Rah-Rah RUGELACH: First on the First
It’s December!! How exciting is that? Now I can legitimately play Christmas songs, have our tree and all our decorations up, and not have any questioning looks. It’s a good day :). It’s also First on the First day, which is a reminder to me how unseasoned I am in the kitchen. Especially when a […]

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 […]
Saturday Sweets: Calico Squares
There are few things that make me crazier than hair in my dishwater. Tell me I’m not alone in this? I do not have a dishwasher at my disposal, and I actually don’t really mind doing the dishes, but, when there is a hair in the water, it gives me the heebies in the very […]
Mrs. Dykstra’s Amazing Brownies
Happy new year everyone!! I have been seriously slacking on my blogging duties for the last couple weeks, as I holidayed to the max with family and friends over Christmas and New Years, but now I am so excited to be back at it! Anna and I also had a great chance to catch up […]
Saturday Sweets: Chocolate Mint Surprise Cookies
Can anyone else believe that Christmas is already upon us?? I feel like we just set up our Christmas tree, and now we’re gearing up to, well, gear down for the holidays! These cookies are a great addition to any Christmas baking, if you’re the really last-minute type. They are the very best fresh and […]
