I’ve had a serious hankering for muffins lately for breakfast. Now when it comes to muffins there are a couple of varieties: healthy, healthy-ish, and just-call-it-a-cupcake. (You know what I’m talking about)! When I started down the path of making some Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip muffins, I was thinking they’d fall into the just-call-it-a-cupcake category, [...]

I have to say, I really admire you working mommy bloggers who manage to keep up with your blogs. I’ve been back at work full-time for a few weeks now and I just can’t keep up! How do you do it? I miss blogging! I miss my blogosphere friends but by the time I get [...]

I’m happy to say that chocolate is my friend again. Somewhere near the end of my pregnancy chocolate and I became BFFs again. 8-ish months of wanting nothing to do with chocolate was just weird. I’m glad to be back in the world of chocolate lovers I’ve made these brownies several times now; they quickly [...]

That recipe/post will come another day. For now, lets talk chocolate peanut buttery goodness. I love chocolate. Love, love, love. [...]

I’ve been doing some baking recently with butter! I know, strange way to start a post but this really is exciting for me. The last year has been so full of whole wheat, low fat baking goodies that its nice to be baking occassionally with the good stuff. Weight watchers has been good to me. I haven’t [...]

Sometimes a girl just needs some chocolate. I don’t bake much anymore. My waist line can’t afford it. Well it could if I went to the gym, but its been months since I set foot in the gym so in the meantime cookies are not my friend. Oh but they are. These chocolate cookies are [...]

Sneaky, sneaky Thanksgiving! Where did you come from?? This year is just flying by! Especially this fall. For once we’ve actually had a fall in Texas. Its rare. We normally go from super hot to not-so hot. But we’ve had enjoyable temps throughout October and November for the most part. I love keeping my windows [...]

We love entertaining and don’t do it as much as we should but we’re working on it! One of the things we’ve been trying to stick to over the last 8-9 months is having a regularly scheduled game night. We’ve had 3 or 4 to date and they’re always a hit. The thing we haven’t [...]

Hubby has a total sweet tooth, especially for bad for you store-bought treats like Hostess cakes and Little Debbies. Its been awhile since I’ve done any real baking so I figured I’d whip up something for him this weekend and remembered seeing these Homemade Hostess Cupcakes awhile back. I did some searching and found several [...]

I’ve been bad about keeping up with the blog! I’m trying to do better but honestly, right now I’m doing good if I even bother to spend 10 minutes cleaning up the house. I’m embarrassed by how big of a mess it is. Work is crazy and probably only going to get worse before it [...]

I just wrote about my new favorite chocolate chip cookies but I thought I’d also write about hubby’s new favorite chocolate chip cookies. Everyone looks for something a little different when it comes to chocolate chip cookies. For some its that thick & chewy bakery like cookie. But I don’t like cookie dough and thus [...]
