S’Mores Scones
I have this bag of baking supplies that I hide out of sight in the hall coat closet. My logic is questionable since I (1) hid it, and (2) it’s been discovered. It contains everything from Peanut M&M’s to Hershey’s Kisses to Ferrero Rocher, plus assorted other essentials like chocolate chips, shredded coconut, marshmallows, and Heath toffee bits.

Red Grapefruit Mojito {with Vanilla Simple Syrup}
This Red Grapefruit Mojito {with Vanilla Simple Syrup} might be the perfect seasonal segue. The crisp flavor of fresh squeezed Ruby Red Grapefruit and Lime are super refreshing. I was on a mission to develop a new Friday Night Cocktail. This cocktail needed to represent Summer Thyme, because while I’m always excited about Autumn…I in no way want to rush through the last month of ‘official’ summer.

Chocolate Truffle Torte {with Macadamia Crust}
May 28th is my darling Shelby’s birthday. Twenty-four years ago today I became a mom. THE most important job title I will ever hold. Last year on this day I made her a Chocolate Truffle Torte, with the intention of sharing it with you that evening. Instead, we soaked in every ounce of our most amazing daughter and this recipe slowly moved into the unpublished archives.

Carrot Cake Breakfast Bread
Carrot Cake Breakfast Bread served with hot comforting coffee makes ‘unseasonably’ seem novel. Let me talk quickly. We are currently experiencing unseasonably cold temps with wind gusts in the….well below our comfort level. My computer has been off and on again with power outages and server issues.

European Cookie Butter Fudge
Who was my Secret Santa this year? Who stumped me so well that I spent an entire week bragging about my amazing Secret Santa to none other than….my Secret Santa? That would be Bethany. The sneaky lady who made me a batch of this incredible European Cookie Butter Fudge (along with many other fabulous gifts).

Dark Chocolate Rum Cupcakes {with Salted Caramel Buttercream}
My Dark Chocolate Rum Cupcakes with Salted Caramel Buttercream recipe was inspired by the most popular dessert on this year’s Halloween Office Party Buffet. There sat Mark’s picture perfect rum cake, whose aroma alone was so intoxicating co-workers began to stalk the break room pre-party (secretly wondering if they could manage to sneak a piece without getting caught). There’s something sensual about the combination of rum and butter and sugar.

Homemade English Muffins {Bread Machine Method}
I’m as surprised as anyone at how easy it is to make Homemade English Muffins. All while your family sleeps. I had a grin on my face a mile wide when my family came downstairs this morning. Care for an English Muffin? I made these. Hee hee.
