Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars
Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars. That’s what the experts said I should call these two-bite “Change Your Life” treats. Said in my best Steel Magnolias accent, which I happen to be watching tonight. We’ll come back to that.

Homemade Junior Mints
I had a blast playing Secret Santa at the office this year!! I always do. This yearly tradition has become a great way to welcome in the holidays, with a bit of mischief and good fun.

Chocolate Rum Balls {Share the Love}
It was time for another Adventure in Chocolate. I started something kind of fun. Every other week or so I will choose one of my work-mates to select a recipe, that I then recreate, picture, post about, and deliver to them to Share the Love. This time up I chose Allan and he chose Chocolate Rum Balls.

Homemade Peanut Butter Cups {National Peanut Butter Day}
As I’ve said before, I’m not sure who comes up with these ‘National Days’ but National Peanut Butter Day was just too good to let slip away. Since our most popular posts involve Chocolate (Bacon & Bread Bowls being a close second)…Homemade Peanut Butter Cups seemed the obvious choice.
