A food blog balancing sweet treats & healthy eats.
I feel as though it’s been a while! I’ve been keeping a pretty good pace of blog posts recently, but the quantity of baked goods was getting to be too much. The kitchen was filled with Tupperware, so I had to take a break and let the existing baked goods dwindle. But now we’re back…
I’ve been on more of a baking kick than normal the past two weeks. There’s a lot of fall baked goods in the house right now, and I can’t keep up. And on top of that, these Pumpkin Pie Pop Tart Bars are accidentally pretty similar to these Apple Butter Bars, which I still have…

Looking back on the original post, it’s crazy that Molly made these cookies for the first time TEN YEARS ago, and she used fall sprinkles! Time,…
My family is likely very tired of me complaining about work, after my three years post-grad. And that’s after the four years of college, where they were tired of my complaining about school. My last job in LA was truly awful and consumed so much of my psyche for years, and I made sure everybody…
