Hello Friends! I am so excited about this giveaway because it has been in the making for months! Back in July I went over to my friend Emily‘s house to take some pictures of her lovely aprons for her Etsy page. (Please keep in mind that she makes mostly custom aprons, so there aren’t a…

Whole Wheat Chocolate-Peanut Chip Oat Cookies
Hello Friends! Now say this 10 times fast! Yes, it’s a long name for a cookie, but I have so many cookie recipes that I really need to get more specific. I wanted to name them semi-healthy delights, but will I remember what exactly that means a year from now when I’m looking for the…
What Can *I* Do? Hurricane Sandy Relief

{WIAW #44} Happy Halloween
Hello Friends! Friday was the first time I ever ever carved a pumpkin by myself. Really. You think I’m joking? Would you like to make fun of me like the cashier did at HyVee Friday night? “Any big plans this evening?” cashier says as he is scanning my pumpkin and carving kit….
