Marshmallows…who doesn’t love these squishy little pillows of goodness? I recently found this recipe for homemade marshmallows and had to give it a try. As a twist, I cut them in heart shapes for Valentine’s Day. What a fun little treat for your kids or as a teacher gift wrapped up with some packets of hot chocolate. Mmmm…I...

Food Friday {Interview with Buttercream Bakehouse}
I thought it would be fun to do something a little different for this week’s Food Friday post. Recently, I had the pleasure of meeting local baker, Dina Crowell of Buttercream Bakehouse. She made an outrageously delicious Oreo Crush cake for my daughter’s birthday. Oh. My. Gosh! Serious yumminess going on there!! (Is yumminess even a word? ...

Peaches…the perfect end of summer fruit! A few weeks ago, I got the most delicious peaches from Snead’s Farm. So what’s one to do when a hurricane keeps everyone inside for a few days? Bake some cobbler! My hubby joked that he hoped the power didn’t go out before it was done. What a disappointment...

Considering we just had a snow day that week, I couldn’t resist something so bright and cheery to warm up my day! I came home and after some researching came up with a lemon...

What could be better on a cold morning than a bowl of warm, creamy oatmeal? How about some pumpkin oatmeal?! I was a big fan of Aarti Sequeira on the show, The Next Food Network Star, and I really enjoy her new show, Aarti Party. I came across an episode on my DVR recently that...

I posted a story here about my adventures (or misadventures!) with growing things and about planting a garden this spring. I am happy to say that I have not killed anything (yet) and we are starting to enjoy some fresh veggies from our garden! The zucchini has really taken off so I’ve been on the lookout...

Yesterday the weather was so beautiful! After three days of rain, I was ready to get out so I headed to downtown Fredericksburg to do some exploring. I walked around some of the side streets and found some wonderful little shops and areas that I usually miss. For lunch, I had a yummy Lime and Cilantro Chicken Salad at the...
