One of Kevin’s favorite kind of cookies are Peanut Butter Blossoms. We usually only make these around Christmas so when he started eating gluten free last year I had to figure out a way for him to still be able to enjoy his favorite holiday treat. These cookies are only five ingredients and you would…
Reindeer Cupcakes
A couple of years ago Kevin volunteered with a program at our church that tutored kids from one of the neighborhood schools. For their Christmas party I was asked to bring in some treats for the kids. Along with my M&M and Chocolate Chip Cookies I also made the cutest Reindeer Cupcakes that were a…
Mini M&M and Chocolate Chip Cookies
If there is one time of year I especially love baking, it’s definitely around Christmas. I’m pretty sure it’s impossible to not bake cookies at Christmas time. Every year my family can expect the same lineup of cookies to make an appearance and last year I shared those recipes with you. You can read all…
Our Day Before Thanksgiving Tradition

Best Pie in Chicago

These treats are inspired by a recent visit to Chicago Bagel Authority where they had the biggest s’more krispy treats for sale. Their version was made with two different kinds of cereal: Golden Grahams and Cocoa Puffs. I went…

Here are some cute ideas for this year from some fellow bloggers: Mummy Cupcakes via Sugar and Charm Mini Donut Spiders via It’s Always Autumn Frankenstein Rice Krispie Treats via…
Applesauce Muffins (Gluten Free)
This past weekend we went apple picking and I came home with almost three dozen apples of six different varieties. While I plan on cutting some up for quick snacks, the others I have big plans to use for some baking projects like my apple crisp recipe. Last night I made my first couple of apple…
Butternut Squash, Kale, and Quinoa Salad with Maple Balsamic Dressing
Last week I had my monthly dinner club with some of my girlfriends from church. Our theme for October was “fall food”. For our dinner club, we rotate houses each month and whoever hosts prepares the main course while the rest of us bring the sides and dessert. This month the main course served was…
