Homemade Ice Cream In a Ziploc Bag
Homemade Ice Cream in a Ziploc Bag allows everyone to celebrate National Ice Cream Day! Get shaking!! Our first attempt at making ice cream in a Ziploc bag was the night I discovered Thin Mints in the freezer. It was late. For some reason we decided we couldn’t have one without the other. The ice cream was a success.

Dutch Apple Pie Muffins {Gluten Free}
Happy National Muffin Day! We’re going to celebrate with Dutch Apple Pie Muffins that happen to also be Gluten Free! I set a calendar reminder for this food holiday because I knew it would be an opportunity to spend some time in the kitchen with Ella, my fun-loving, bright, kind and witty bonus-daughter who can hold her own in the kitchen. She’s 11. She’s a natural. And she makes banana bread like nobody’s business!!

Salted Double Dark Chocolate Cookies
At a recent family reunion I discovered these luscious Salted Double Dark Chocolate Cookies. They are rich, crispy on the edges yet soft on the inside, with a hint of sea salt. Can you see that molten chunk of chocolate there? It’s the ‘Double’ in this cookie’s name.

Carrot Cake Energy Bites
I sent Shelby an innocent birthday text (back on May 28th). It went something like this….what’s your favorite kind of cake? She threw me for a loop with her response.

European Cookie Butter Fudge
Who was my Secret Santa this year? Who stumped me so well that I spent an entire week bragging about my amazing Secret Santa to none other than….my Secret Santa? That would be Bethany.

Homemade Blondies {Feeling the Love}
I logged onto my computer this morning and was greeted by 85 new Facebook friends. Whoa! Those of us who use Facebook to promote our blogs have been feeling a little bewildered lately. Facebook has implemented new algorithms that ultimately reduce the number of people that see our posts (typically only 1%…yikes). The way to fix that, at least in their eyes, is to pay to “Promote” our posts.
