Alright, so this post isn’t exactly my way of telling you that I’m headed to Cali soon- although I definitely wouldn’t pass up an opportunity to go if it presented itself… But really, this post is an intro to a vacation recap that I’ve debated sharing. Why? Because it was a road trip Merry and… [Read More]
February 2015 Recap
Here we are, already at the end of February. Though the months seem to fly by anyway, the fact that February is a short month really made it go by that much quicker. I think I collected a lot of great moments during the past 28 days though. Traveled: We didn’t go too far this month- just a… [Read More]

Red Velvet Scones
I really love scones. I found this recipe for red velvet scones using cake mix and I was sold. I love making red velvet things, (especially brownies) but sometimes it’s a pain having to buy a bottle of red food coloring just for one dessert recipe. Using a cake mix was the perfect short cut!… [Read More]
Heart Shaped Sugar Cookies
Alright, ya’ll. I promised you some Valentine’s treats on the blog, so here we go. As I told you here, I baked my little heart out over the weekend making festive goodies. Today, we’ll talk sugar cookies, and tomorrow we’ll talk red velvet scones. Sound good? Good:) I’ll just start by saying that these were delicious. 5 stars…. [Read More]
