Citrus Raspberry Trifle

We’re right in the middle of two of my favorite seasons: citrus and Girl Scout Cookie. Okay, I know Girl Scout Cookies aren’t necessarily a season, but they’re around for at least a month (and still available until March 12th) and that’s more than enough for me. I’m a huge girl scout cookie fan. I’ve… Continue reading Citrus Raspberry Trifle

Chocolate Raspberry Thumbprints

Two big holidays are next week: Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s Day.  Galentine’s Day? What the H.E.double hockey sticks is Galentine’s Day? It’s a relatively new phenomenon where girls get together the day before Valentine’s Day, February 13th, and celebrate. You know, a girls’ night. I mean, why should you miss out on wine and chocolate… Continue reading Chocolate Raspberry Thumbprints

Sweet Treats for Valentine’s Day

Okay, I’m not gonna deny it. I didn’t make a Valentine’s-Day-specific dessert this year. Bad Kitchy Cooker. Bad. But while I was hanging my head in shame I realized I’ve made plenty of desserts for the blog and some of them have even been chocolate. (Who am I kidding? Most of them have been chocolate.)… Continue reading Sweet Treats for Valentine’s Day

Avocado Chocolate Chip Cookies

If your curling your lip in disgust, don’t worry, you’re not alone. I did the exact same thing when my trainer told me about them. I mean why in the world would you put avocado and chocolate chips in the same cookie? One’s great for salads, dips and baby food and the other is the… Continue reading Avocado Chocolate Chip Cookies

Sugar Cookies for the Holidays

The holidays are here!  I can’t believe Christmas is Tuesday. Can you?  I feel like it was just Halloween. But since it is the holidays that means holiday cards. Holiday cards? On a food blog? Yes! Because every year since A was born we’ve been sending out these cards. And every year has had a… Continue reading Sugar Cookies for the Holidays
