Groundhog is coming! It’s next Saturday and I’m already gathering craft supplies and fun activities for the kids and I to do together. I found a picture of a snack I made last year for the girls to take to their friends and thought I would share. Continue reading “Groundhog Day is Coming!”
Valentine’s Day is a month away! I don’t know about you but my favorite Valentine’s Day candy is conversation hearts. I love those sweet, colorful tiny hearts with cute sayings on them. Although the last few years I think they taste different, and not in a good way. I’m not sure if they changed the recipe favors or if my adult taste buds are different. Either way I still eat them 🙂 This year as a fun activity for me and my kids I wanted to attempt to make our own.
One of my family’s favorite recipes is pepperoni rolls and it is so simple! Who doesn’t love pepperoni, cheese and pizza dough?
Realizing Valentine’s Day is only a little more than a month away, I have been looking back through some pictures of past Valentine’s Day snacks I made for various parties and friends. I put together a few ideas to share here for my readers.
Over Christmas we were invited to a Christmas party and when the hostess told me she was making Grinch punch since we would be watching “The Grinch” I got excited to make something Grinch themed as well.
Over the weekend my blog went over 1 million views! This was an exciting milestone for me. I have never considered myself as having anything worth saying that others would want to hear/read about. So seeing my little blog get bigger and bigger has been a very encouraging experience. Maybe there are people out there who enjoy some of the things I do and write about. On the same day I went over 400 e-mail followers, this amazes me as well. Most of the time I am pretty sure my friends and family don’t even have any interest in my blog, but 400 people want to receive an e-mail every time I post something new! Then I noticed my Pinterest followers have jumped from 170 followers a month ago to over 1100, again I’m floored. I have been terribly busy over the last week renovating our bathroom until the wee hours of the morning, baking and cleaning for our annual open house party and participating in Christmas events. So I haven’t been posting like normal, but I felt I needed to stop and say thank you to my readers for helping me achieve these milestones. I am sharing a recipe I use as a thank you to my husband often since it is one of his favorites, my twice baked potatoes.

So as my family, friends and loyal readers know I am terrible at making chocolate chip cookies, more about that here. When it comes to peanut butter cookies though I have a recipe I love! Continue reading “Irresistible Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe”
