Sweets. I really, really, REALLY love sweets. They are my diet downfall. I like to blame my hippie parents for depriving me of sugar as a child. Total denial of sugary cereals, candy and snacks turned me into a sugar fiend. As soon as I was out of the house…BOOM…I was knee deep in [...]
I almost feel like I shouldn’t be posting this recipe, it’s almost like I am encouraging you to make this dessert. It seems all kinds of wrong to post a recipe with the words peanut + butter + cup + blondie, doesn’t it? I mean, just because Cooking Light published this recipe doesn’t mean it’s [...]
There comes a time in every girl’s month when all hell breaks loose. Yes. I’m talking about that time of the month. During that time of the month, I crave sweets like no other. Cake, chocolate, ice cream, cookies! It’s a terrible sickness. I’m just going to admit it; I’m not very good in the [...]
My name is Heather and I am a cookie addict. My husband’s nickname for me is cookie monster. No cookie is safe in my presence. Therefore, I rarely have any in the house. Because I will eat them for any meal of the day. Even breakfast. Erin Baker’s Breakfast Cookies are from the town where [...]
Please do not hate me for sharing this recipe. I am not a “sweets” person. I can have ice cream/cookies/dessert/chocolate sitting in my pantry for long periods of time before I ever go near it. However, I am a “salty snacks” kind of gal and I have to be careful of what I have nearby [...]
Are you tired of the husband, boyfriend, or mailman shunning your food because you made an attempt at a new healthy dish? Does he look at your spinach infused tofu quiche and turn his nose up like he’d rather eat a boot? If that’s what you’re living I have a couple of secrets (read: the [...]

Did you know that in addition to February being Heart Health Month, it’s also National Chocolate Month?

Usually, I do really well at controlling my sweet tooth. I can go weeks without touching sweets. And then there are certain times (of the month) when I crave sweets. Specifically, ice cream. So this last certain time when I was craving ice cream I happened to be in Target. (Not Super Target, just regular [...]
