Snickers Cupcakes
Snickers Cupcakes...sinfully delicious :) |
I was sort of stressing about what to make because it is rare that I have such a captive audience. I knew it had to be easy to eat, from scratch, and appeal to a wide range of people. I searched high and low for the best dessert I could find when I stumbled upon Homemade by Holman. Within this blog, I discovered the incredibly delicious Snickers Cupcakes.

Cinco de Mayo Pinata Cookies
Back in the beginning of May, my lovely sister Lauren shared a link to a recipe with me. It was for these adorable Cinco de Mayo Pinata Cookies that she discovered on Pinterest. Of course, being the baker that I am, I wanted to make them immediately. Cinco de Mayo was only 3 days away, which felt like plenty of time to put these together for my friends. Boy was I wrong! Pinterest should come with a warning label:
Warning: Things on Pinterest are harder than they appear.

Brown Sugar Mini Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Brown Sugar Frosting
Brown Sugar Mini Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Brown Sugar Frosting |
So, where does that bring me today? A few recipes behind (I even have a draft of something saved from January) and trying to catch up. I'll get back to those things I've made in the past couple of months eventually, but for now let's focus on the present. I'm back. I'm going to do my best to be here regularly!!! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the blog!

Peanut Brittle
So, once again, it's been far too long since I posted anything. The holidays flew by and somehow it is 2012. I can't believe I have been at CCSD for 3 months now and that I am just days away from my health insurance kicking in! It's a bittersweet time though, as I am happy to be in a stable job, but miss the middle school counseling daily. I'm constantly plotting ways to go back and visit my previous schools. One of these days I'm going to show up at Lewis for supervision at 7am and see what happens. And still try to make it to CCSD by 8am (totally doable). Anyway, I apologize for the lack of posts. I sit at a computer 40 hours a week and I often avoid my laptop like the plague when I get home. But I'm getting back into the blogging starting now!
Over the holidays, I had some really delicious peanut brittle at a friend's house. She had it sitting out with other food and I was drawn to it. I love, love, LOVE the stuff and can't get enough of it, but it's one of those things that I never buy and don't really think of until I have it unexpectedly. Then it's all I want. And I mean it: ALL I WANT.
