A guide to making life a little more fabulous

I talked to my friend Aaren for the first time in a long time a few weeks ago, and after talking about a lot of other stuff, she mentioned that she and her sister Jenna read my blog and were wondering why I was posting things like Mexican wedding cakes.

When I first saw this recipe on Tyler Florence’s website, I wasn’t sure if it was a recipe for baby food or regular food.

This smoothie is the reason we don’t have a rug in the living room anymore.

I still have a lot more from our Hawaii trip I want to share with you.

As I was sitting at a bar on Waikiki Beach, drinking a Blue Hawaii, I was thinking about… cupcakes.

At my old job, lunch usually meant running downstairs at 3 p.

I know you weren’t thinking a milkshake was the only thing I made Toby for his birthday.

As you may know, it is virtually impossible to find fresh sour cherries in the grocery store.

I thought you could use something somewhat healthy after the cheesy grits, pie and milkshakes.

When I was little, Baskin Robbins was our ice cream of choice.

I know you were probably wondering how the sweet tea fits in with the peach theme of the week.

I really like the idea of yogurt parfaits, but it seems like the pre-made ones always have some kind of yucky yogurt and not enough fruit.

Originally I was going to have a recipe for grilled chicken with peach barbecue sauce.

I hope everyone is staying safe and dry as Irene makes her way up the East Coast.
