Mini Strawberry Trifles {Amy Atlas Book Giveaway} [UPDATED]

Tuesday, April 24, 2012

A few weeks ago, I found these sweet mini trifle bowls at Pier 1 Imports (you can also get them on amazon). Resistance was futile, so I grabbed four of them, without any real plan as to what I would do with them yet (aside from making some sort of trifle…obvs). Then, I got to take a ...

Where in the World is Bakingdom? Chocolate Marionberry Cream Roulade

Monday, February 27, 2012

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for our favorite new game! “Where in the World is Bakingdom?” Actually, “Where in the World” is pretty inaccurate, I guess, since it’s actually “Where in the U.S.,” but it doesn’t have the same ring to it, does it? Nope. Not really…I’m sticking with “world.” So. That picture up there? ...

Malted Milk Chocolate Pots de Crème with Malted Dark Chocolate Ganache

Tuesday, January 31, 2012

Words should come with little thought bubbles that have their pronunciations written in them. You know, so when you’re about to say something, and you’re not sure how to pronounce it, the little thought bubble floats up and shows you how to say it. And if you’re still unsure, you can ask for an audio ...

Perfectly Pinterest: Whipped Cream Hearts and Strawberry White Hot Chocolate

Friday, January 13, 2012

At the risk of sounding completely broken in the brain, I have to ask, do you guys ever get distracted by things that sparkle? I know, I sound like a three year old right now. Seriously, though, you know those GIFs that say things like, “I don’t have A.D.D., I just… Ooooh look! GLITTER!”? Well, ...

Peppermint Bark Ice Cream Pie

Wanna know a little secret? I’ve been learning a new language lately. It’s called Kid Speak. And it. is. awesome. In a drive-you-completely-insane-until-you-finally-get-it kind of way. You hear all these stories about kids saying goofy things to the lyrics of songs that are completely wrong, but sound just like the actual lyrics, and you think, ...

Homemade Salted Caramel Mocha Latte, Frappuccino, and CUPCAKES!

Wednesday, October 5, 2011

I’m sure you’ve all noticed how much I’ve been babbling about Starbucks recently. With my little visit to the States, I’ve been splurging and enjoying yummy chai lattes and salted caramel mocha frappuccinos whenever I can, but my Starbucks fund is more or less depleted. Which really didn’t take too long, considering the price of ...

Vanilla Peach Piecakes with Ginger Whipped Cream

Monday, September 19, 2011

It’s no secret that there has been a heated debate on the interwebs of late about whether or not pies will be overtaking cupcakes as the “It” of sweet treats and desserts. Personally, there hasn’t been much of a debate for me, because…well. I don’t really like pie. So. Yeah. Cupcakes, FTW! Actually, that’s not ...

Mini Key Lime Pies

Tuesday, August 2, 2011

Our boy got home this past weekend. Have you ever had five weeks off from parenting? Oh my gosh, it’s like it never happened. One day he left, the next day he was back. I could swear there was never any five weeks in between. Not that we’re not happy he’s home safe and sound, ...

White Chocolate Strawberry Ice Cream Cupcakes

Thursday, June 23, 2011

My luggage finally joined me in Minnesota the other day. Tuesday, to be exact. That’s right, my luggage didn’t get to me until five days after I had already been visiting my sis and her family. I was not a happy camper. Luckily, and happily, I’ve had my nephews to distract me. We spent the ...

Raspberry Vanilla Cream Pie

Thursday, June 9, 2011

The last week has been pretty crazy around here, technologically speaking. Lots of changes and tweaks to the blog and website took place that you can’t see, but they’re definitely there. Hopefully, this last week of downtime, 404 errors, and broken links will pay off to a better, faster, more consistent running website for the ...
