Why is it that I always seem to make holiday themed treats after the holiday has passed?? In my defense, I actually made this cake for St. Patrick’s Day, I just didn’t post it in time. Clearly since it’s June… but hey, we can look… Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Last year we gave you an […]
Last Saturday we celebrated my brother’s confirmation with a Mexican dinner at home with family. My Aunt Paula made her famous beef enchiladas, my Aunt Teri made one of her amazingly delicious green salads and we had rice and beans. It was delicious, easy and made for a great evening with family celebrating the fact […]
A couple of years ago for Christmas I received an adorable Cupcake Calendar. It was one of those daily desk calendars, and each day had a new cupcake recipe. The whole year I saved each recipe that caught my interest, with every intention of making them throughout the year. As you can probably guess, I […]
Happy summer! Well, kind of. I guess it’s not technically summer yet but it sure feels like it and if I was still in college, I’d be on summer vacation right now so in my book it’s summer. And speaking of summer vacation, I wish adults had summer vacation too. I really think the world would […]
My name is Kelly and I am a Nutella addict. Correction, my name is Kelly and I am a recovering Nutella addict. I am recovering in the sense that I only buy Nutella if I am going to bake with it and only if I use the entire jar. If I don’t use the entire […]

My grandmother once told me that ice cream “is just milk, cream, and sugar- it’s really not that bad for you, Kelly.” I chose to believe her and as a result, I liberally consume ice cream on a regular basis. Thanks, Mimi, for justifying my love of ice cream. Now, I can’t entirely blame my […]
It’s finally soup weather and I love it!! There is nothing cozier than a hot bowl of soup on a chilly, overcast day. This is one of the many reasons I love Fall! About two blocks from where I work is a soup place called Munteen’s. Everyday they have about 10 or more different soups […]
Guys…I’m cold. I know it’s not as cold here as that whole “Polar Vortex” thing back East I keep hearing about, but…I’m still cold. And I don’t remember the last time I saw the sun. Boise is in a valley and keeps getting these inversion things. It’s basically just low lying clouds…that stay for weeks, […]
I have taken a little 2 week hiatus from baking (sorry for slacking Steph!) so this weekend I decided to do nothing but bake! Well and sleep, read, workout, go to church, watch the Oscars, take two naps… ok so I didn’t spend the whole weekend baking but I did try some new recipes including […]
Did you know that January is National Soup Month? Neither did I! But it makes a lot of sense. On these cold dreary winter days I love having a big bowl of soup to warm me up. One of my favorite comfort foods of all…
Who here loves brie? (raises hand enthusiastically). Let’s be honest though, I love pretty much every kind of cheese and I will use any excuse to eat it. I recently ordered a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch with a side of mac and cheese. That’s the kind of cheese connoisseur you’re dealing with over here. […]
We are so excited to have the lovely girls from the Simply Living blog guest posting for us today! Just like us, they are two friends living apart who share one blog. If you have not checked out their blog, seriously go do that NOW! Then come back and see what they’ve made for us […]
