Surprise, surprise, I have been home a lot the last two weeks. I know you have too. When I saw an email sharing Le Toy Van wooden toys, I thought, "Aren't those just so cute?" You may remember, I shared about their wooden doughnut set. So this week, I want to share their wooden cupcake set. I thought using baking puns would be perfect to print out onto white cardstock. You can obviously use this printable for edible cupcakes. But, this cute wooden cupcake set is a fun gift idea to give … [Read more...]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
This last month my Princess and I made cookies together. She specifically asked for peanut butter cookies and since we had all the ingredients, I just couldn't say no. I mean, honestly, who can say no to peanut butter cookies? She loved them so much she asked me to make them for her class, for her birthday. She does not like cupcakes, and she wnated to bring something to her class on her birthday, so we made another batch of peanut butter cookies with chocolate candies - thumbprint … [Read more...]
Pumpkin Fry Bread with Dark Chocolate Sauce
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Hershey Company for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. Growing up on a Native American reservation and now raising my kids on the same reservation - we've eaten plenty of fry bread. Fry bread is a flat dough fried or deep-fried in oil, shortening, or lard. (In our family we've always just used vegetable oil.) My favorite way to eat it has always been warm with butter and jam. Though, eating it with taco fixings (Indian Taco) is also a … [Read more...]

{Semi-Homemade} Mini Blueberry Pie Recipe
This last Christmas, I found this cute little baking product to put in my mom's stocking - a Wilton Mini Pie Press.

My sister and I love coming up with tasty and somewhat low calorie dessert options. We love sweets!

Cake Mix Rolo Cookies
Easter is only three weeks away! Can you believe it? Does your family have special Easter traditions? In our family we get together and have a family dinner usually at 2pm to allow people to get done with church and then we eat, play games, and then adults hide Easter eggs (real and plastic that are filled with candy and money). To prepare for Easter I love to decorate a dozen Easter eggs with the kids. We dye eggs and decorate eggs. We also like to bake. What does your family love to do … [Read more...]
