One of my favorite go-to desserts for the holidays are Oreo Truffles (or as I call them – Balls from Heaven!). They are delicious, easy to make and I don’t know one person who doesn’t like them. They are great for cookie exchanges, holiday parties or any family get-together. Since my friends and family seem …

I went to St. Louis to visit family a few weekends ago and that means – “let the baking begin”! I can’t go to visit them without whipping up something yummy and fabulous. It is just expected of me these days. The weather was beautiful and the pool temperature was just right, so I needed a …

I am always looking for fun and quick snack/lunch ideas for the kids. While I am a fabulous baker (if I do say so myself!), I’m not that great of a cook. I can rarely think outside the box when it comes to mealtime. While quesadillas, sandwiches and mac and cheese are my kids’ lunch …

Have you ever had Wheat Germ French Toast? If not, you are in for a treat. I have two boys under four years old and to say their eating habits are erratic would be an understatement. One day they love something and the next won’t even look at it. It can be frustrating but I …

Let’s just put it out there. I clearly love peanut butter. My heart goes out to all those who have peanut allergies because I bake with peanut butter A LOT! Sorry, today is another peanut butter dessert – Homemade Nutter Butter Cookies. Cookies were my first baking love all the way back to age three. …

My peanut butter and chocolate obsession continues. Last time it was my Peanut Butter Graham Cracker Balls and this time it’s a brownie treat. A few weeks ago I decided to whip this concotion up. Who doesn’t love a peanut butter cookie crust, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup surrounded by moist brownie and a rich peanut …

Stromboli is something my mother-in-law makes every New Years Day. It’s something I will always equate with her and my husbands family. If you’ve never had it before, Stromboli is an Italian stuffed bread filled with anything from vegetables and cheese to meat. It’s crazy simple to make and the possibilities are endless when it …

Yesterday, I took my daughter and her two besties to The American Girl Place in Chicago for her 7th birthday. We made reservations at the Cafe for lunch and planned for her to pick out her very first “big girl” American Girl doll. Since we didn’t know what to expect from our visit to the …
