Candy Corn Cookies
BOO! Did I scare you? Happy Halloween friends! Well, the day before, but all the same. I have been on a little bit of a hiatus because I started a new job and I am trying to get my new schedule figured out. Different hours, long hours, which is good. I an really enjoying the challenge, but it takes some time getting used it. I try to practice having patience with myself with getting back into my routines, but let’s be honest… I don’t really possess patience 😛 It was time for a move in my old job, not much room for growth and now I am with a company…

Snickerdoodles {Paleo}
Confession… I love cookies. and cinnamon. But mostly cookies. I mean this is my second cookie post this week. Dogs and cats living together…MASS HYSTERIA!

Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Who doesn’t love a chocolate chip cookie? I haven’t met one person, What’s not to like? Chocolate, cookie, dough… I always remember being SO excited coming home to warm cookies on the counter. I was SUPER picky when I was little, so I was lucky enough to have a mom that would always leave out the chocolate chips of a couple of the cookies. Every now and again she still does it, even though I’m 30 😉 There is always the great debate on how a cookie texture should be. I am on the side of chewy gooey on the inside with a crispy crunch on the outside. I am…

Mexican Chocolate Snickerdoodles
Happy New year!!! (Keep with me on this post, I am going to be talking mainly life with some cookie pictures mixed in. Recipe is at the bottom if you don’t want to read this entirely too long rambling post) 2015… Whew, 2014 was CRAY CRAY… Seriously, crazy. But amazing crazy 🙂 I have been kind of MIA recently in pretty much all aspects of my life. I haven’t really been paying attention to the blog, or social media (as much as usual), I took some time off of work at the end of the year… I actually kind of feel like a fish out of water! For the longest…

I cannot say enough about The Lord Thompson Manor and…

Peanut Butter Cookies {Gluten Free}
I am sharing a Peanut Butter Cookie today. Do I have your attention? If you are anything like me, I definitely do. I love Peanut Butter more than I could possibly say. Literally, I think I could eat it out of the jar with a spoon…every.single.day. and be completely happy. When I was younger, my Mom used to babysit as her profession so she always got those huge 5lb drums of Peter Pan peanut butter that you get at Sams, BJs or Costco, because she was always feeding 10 kids peanut butter. Because, let’s be honest…most kids are picky but they love peanut butter. I used to take those huge…

Spicy Oatmeal Cookie Crisps
Something about the smell of cinnamon makes me feel like the holidays are near. Cinnamon just has a warm smell to it and I love putting it in just about everything. Do you have something that comforts you? I just remember the smell of cinnamon permeating my house when I was little. I love everything about cinnamon. It tastes good, smells good, the color is vibrant, but you know what?? It is also good for you. Shut.the.front.door. Who would have thunk? Did you know that cinnamon is actually one of the best spices for you? Hell yes, bring on the cinnamon!! Here a just a few of the benefits of…

Snickerdoodles
Are you all geared up for Thanksgiving? Can you even believe it is here already?! This year has legitimately gone faster than any other year I think I can remember. People always told me when I was younger… “time goes faster as you get older”, oh pish posh! I would think. It could not be more true. AmIright? The older I get the more I think I forget to stop and think about what I am truly grateful for. You just get so busy that you forget to remember what is right in front of you. Today is a bit of reflection for myself. If any of you are friends…

Spooky Cookies
BOO! Happy Halloween! First of all, any and all of you who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy. My heart and prayers go out to you. Here in CT we didn’t get hit as badly as we did last year, thank goodness. I am not sure we could have taken 2 years in a row with so much damage from all the storms we have had. Please be safe! There are a lot of crazy things happening right now so just make sure you stay safe and smart. Can you believe that it is Halloween already? I can’t. Thanksgiving is going to be right around the corner and I then…
