It’s finally Fall. That means it’s time for college football, peppermint mochas, Halloween candy (I would emphasize candy corn but I can’t stand it!), pretty colored leaves, apple cinnamon candles, apple cinnamon desserts, the World Series (sadly our man Buster Posey won’t be there…), Thanksgiving prep, hearty soups/stews, gourds (which sometimes gross me out but they […]
We were very excited and honored when Liz from Floating Kitchen nominated us for a Liebster Award! A Liebster Award is passed from one blogger to another, typically those who are “newer” bloggers, and it is a way for us to get to know each other and for our readers to get to know us. It’s […]
Chocolate Pretzel Cookies with Peanut Butter Chips. Phew! What a mouthful. But I promise these cookies are worth the extra long title, especially if you’re like me and love that salty sweet flavor combo. I got the idea for these cookies thinking about my go-to quick and easy pretzel cookies, but then combined that idea […]

Growing up, our parents didn’t buy us many prepackaged treats. Fruit by the foot, gogurt, dunkaroos…we never had those. I still remember going to a friend’s house that had MULTIPLE flavors of goldfish crackers and pringles. Another friend had an entire closet in the basement filled with costco sized packs of fruit snacks and gushers. […]

It has been a wet, wet spring and early summer here. I’ve seen the most intense rain, loudest thunder and crazy lightning since moving to Louisiana! Unfortunately the storms don’t do anything to cool off the temperature though, so we’ve been spending a lot of time indoors. And what better to do when stuck inside […]
Chocolate. Peanut Butter. Pretzel. Cookies. You read that right. Salty pretzels with sweet chocolate and creamy peanut butter. All jammed into a cookie together with their friend oatmeal. I struggled coming up with a name because there are so many good ingredients in these bad boys! But I figured “Oatmeal-Chocolate-Chip-Peanut-Butter-Pretzel-Cookies” sounded like a bit of […]
