I don't know about you, but one of the best ways to eat leftover pizza is for breakfast. I remember doing this quite frequently growing up, especially during my college years.

Not only was the weather great with 70 degree temperatures in October (minus it being a bit too windy, for my liking), but we had several fun fall-themed activities planned. We started the day [...]
I don't know about you, but I love ice cream! Ice cream from the grocery store, soft-serve ice cream, frozen yogurt...you name it, I love it! What I do not like is the fat and calories associated with fulfilling my cravings for ice cream. While this recipe is not the same thing as "real" ice cream, [...]
