No Bake, Small Batch S’mores Cake

Memorial Day Weekend 2020 is going to be a bit different, like most national holidays this year. Never did we think a pandemic would sweep the country and restrict us from seeing family and friends. But it’s all to slow the curve and hopefully holidays in the future will be filled with family and friends

6 Kid Approved Popsicles To Try This Summer

Summer break is officially here and since my little kitchen helper is all about popsicles these days, I wanted to create some kid approved flavor combinations with these adorable popsicles molds. These molds are the perfect size for a little kid since they are 1.6 ounces each. You can mix and match the sticks and

Guest Feature: Homemade Edible Cookie Dough

Enjoying cookie dough straight from the mixer is not recommended these days, even though when I was growing up my siblings and I would battle over the beaters.  Thank god homemade edible cookie dough has been created and we can still satisfy that wonderful craving.  There are even companies dedicated to edible cookie dough, such as

When I make any of my mom’s classic holiday desserts I’m transported back to sitting at the holiday table in my childhood home.  This mint pie is one of those desserts.  My sister and I share a love of anything mint flavored and is probably why we still enjoy this pie today.  The green color of

Connecticut Feature: No-Bake Nutella Cream Pie

I’m a stay-at-home momma of two toddlers, one who goes to preschool five mornings a week. Now, according to my pre-motherhood ideations about what my post-kids life would look like, I should be the woman whose house is immaculate, whose hair is always neatly coiffed, whose family’s laundry is perfectly pressed, and who can always

Connecticut Feature: Grandma’s No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake

She’s likely to say that she got it somewhere else, so it’s not “really” her recipe, but I politely refuse to acknowledge that, as my grandma has been wowing the masses with it for decades. This dessert is a winner every time! My 87-year old grandma, who has
