Last week I shared with you my new favorite website, Pinterest. It’s becoming a problem for 2 reasons: Way too many cute home decor items, and I want to buy them ALL. Way too many delicious sweets, and I want to make (and eat) them ALL! Mint chocolate has always been one of my favorite…
Cobbler for two…
Or, what to do when you buy a boatload of stone fruits, bring them home, and realize “Oh, I live in Oklahoma, and produce STINKS.” Yup, true story. We bought big bags of apricots, pluots and nectarines this weekend. It’s summer, the fruits were plentiful at Wally World, and felt ripe. They’ve gotta be good,…
Mini Oreo Cheesecakes
So I have a new love. I have to admit, I’ve been neglecting my former loves. Facebook, Google Reader, Foodgawker. They’re still in my heart, but I’ve found a new obsession: Pinterest. Have you heard of it? Please go join right now. And follow me. You won’t regret it. And you’ll find lots of fun…
Oatmeal Everything Cookies

I had just started dating Nick, and decided to have him and some of his friends over for dinner, margaritas and a little Apples to Apples. I always love entertaining, but the real reason for…
Chewy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
These Chewy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies are the perfect texture– crisp on the edges and chewy in the middle. The chocolate chips are the perfect compliment to the salty peanut butter! If you have even the tiniest lack of self control, do not make these. Seriously. When you’re curled up in a ball on…
Southern Banana Pudding
I sometimes say that I lived in the South for 2 years. I think it might be debatable whether or not Florida is really considered the true South. In the 2 years I lived there, I only met a very small handful of people who were actually born and raised in Florida. I met people…
Revolutionary Berries
Happy 4th of July Weekend!! These berries are all dressed up for the occasion! The people who lived in our house before us apparently don’t care about any of their mail, because they never changed their address. Besides bank statements and medical bills (which I finally returned to the mailman after weeks of throwing them…
