It broke 80 degrees the other day. Actually, it broke eighty five degrees the other day. So to me, it’s officially summer.

Orange Dreamsicle Cupcakes
It’s getting to be the time of year again where I am ready for school to be over and for summer to start. To use the slang common amongst teenagers, I am “so done” with school. So done. I’m ready to not have to go through all the same classes every day, I’m ready for…

Like, a serious thing. Like so serious that if the raspberries…
Rhubarb Frozen Yogurt
Rhubarb Frozen Yogurt recipe from the Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams cookbook is tangy, creamy, sweet, and full of natural rhubarb flavor. A perfect treat for those warm days in spring and early summer. My goal in life is to someday be as good at something as Jeni is at making ice cream. I don’t know…
Nutella Brownies with Strawberry Buttercream
Chocolate and strawberry are a match made in heaven, so it’s no surprise that these Nutella Brownies with Strawberry Buttercream will utterly steal your heart.
