This may come as a shock to everyone, but Kelly did not make this Nutella Pie. Although maybe it’s not that surprising, because she probably would have already eaten the Nutella straight from the jar and it never would have made its way into the pie. But I digress. Last year my parents hosted a foreign exchange student from Italy for the entire … [Read more…]

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been binge watching The Americans all week or because the weather is slightly chilly but I’ve been on a sugar kick lately. And it’s time to cut back. Obviously judging from the title though, I’m taking baby steps to cutting out sugar. It’s a process… Last week I did some meal prep and made some smoothie packets to keep in the freezer for days when I needed a quick breakfast or lunch. I filled 5 Ziploc bags, each containing 1/4 cup frozen mixed berries, … [Read more…]

Happy Belated Valentine’s Day! If I had planned better, I would have made this recipe prior to Valentine’s Day so you could have made and enjoyed them too… Sorry! Good thing Nutella can be enjoyed year round! As in, good thing you never need a reason to eat Nutella because it can and should be enjoyed everyday. Ok, maybe not everyday but I definitely will not judge you if you do 🙂 So I am ashamed to admit that I have never made homemade pie crust. Ever. The only time I ever made … [Read more…]

Happy World Nutella Day! A holiday I didn’t know existed until last week, but plan on fully celebrating from now on. Did you know today is the 8th anniversary of the holiday?? The day even has its own Twitter if you feel the need to follow the events happening around the world: https://twitter.com/nutelladay/statuses/430976687137128448 As with any holiday, the most appropriate way to celebrate is with cupcakes! Right?? I wanted something simple, not too crazy and over the top, so I opted for a … [Read more…]

Happy World Nutella Day! It is incredibly random that we have a World Nutella Day. Seriously, who comes up with these kinds of days?? Not that I am complaining. As previously mentioned more than once, I am a Nutella addict. And if there is any day to indulge, today is that day. … [Read more…]

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 jar, I throw the rest away.  I know it’s wasteful and I do feel bad but, I cannot have Nutella around the house or I will turn into that person who comes home from work, throws on a pair of sweats, turns on a West Wing marathon via Netflix, and … [Read more…]

The final installment of this year’s #Choctoberfest: double chocolate walnut cookies. They taste just as good as they sound! I’m not sure when the idea for these cookies came to mind, but I knew  they needed to happen. I have a confession for everyone though: I’m not a very good cookie baker. Sure I make hundreds of sugar cookies and decorate … [Read more…]

Disclaimer: this post is sponsored by Imperial Sugar. I received sample products to use in recipe development  however all opinions are honest and my own. Chocolate. Cream Cheese.  Brownies. You’ve all had these before, I don’t even need to explain them to you. They are so popular and so well known, I naturally assumed we had already made them on the blog. Surprise surprise…we hadn’t! While we have a red velvet cream cheese brownie for Valentine’s Day we seemed to be missing the traditional … [Read more…]

I’m a little behind on sharing, but I went to Europe for the first time! My husband and I spent about 9 days in total, traveling through Paris, Belgium and Amsterdam. I’m so excited to share all of our European adventures with you! I’m a little upset because my camera started having issues the first day (of course), so the pictures aren’t as clear as I hoped. But they still showcase our travels and that’s what matters! Be prepared for some lengthy posts… I hesitate to even call this a guide … [Read more…]
