YUM, right? Right! These babies are tasty! You have probably noticed that I am not much of a baker. I tend to stick with creating vegetarian and vegan breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. On occasion I will throw in a smoothie or a nut butter here or there, but desserts have never really happened...until now. To be [...]
Gingerbread Obsessed: Gingerbread Almond Cashew Butter + Gingerbread Hot Cocoa
December 16, 2013 in Desserts, Other, SnacksIt is official. I am obsessed.

November 23, 2013 in Other, Restaurant ReviewsGuess what? Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, and New Years Eve are right around the corner. Seriously, they will be both here before we know it! When I think of the holidays I think of a lot of things, including family, friends, shopping, snow, decorations, and quite possibly and most importantly...food! Let's face it. The holidays in [...]
Today is Tuesday, and I am linking up with Becky's Treat Yourself Tuesday link-up in celebration of having attended my very first Friendsgiving this past Sunday night! Becky is a firm believer in treating yourself well, and I definitely think I accomplished that this weekend. When Joanna invited me over for her Friendsgiving celebration I [...]
