sweetie pies ( plus a free valentine download )

I personally love that at this time of year, magazines and blogs are full of recipes and ideas for Valentine sweet treats. I love baking goodies for my sweetie but they almost always seem to focus on chocolate. Now don’t get me wrong; I love chocolate as much as the next gal, but when it [...]

pancakes and pie

There are two things that I know will put a guaranteed smile on my boyfriend’s face: pancakes and pie. Any kind of pancakes, any kind of pie, anytime of the day. How yummy would it be to combine the two and serve your guy (or gal!) breakfast in bed? I created [...]
