Seriously “the world’s greatest lasagna” may be an understatement. The secret to my favorite dish? It’s all in the homemade sauce. None of that store bought junk (not to be hating, Prego used to be my go-to) but the homemade sauce is what would make any Italian mama say, “Mama mia! This sauce is good!” […]
French Toast Casserole Recipe
Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and I could eat breakfast food for dinner all week long! One of my favorite breakfast dishes is french toast (oh nom nom) but it can be so boring, it’s basically just toast with sugar on it. So I went on the hunt for a way to […]
Healthy and Delicious Dessert: 10 min. Grilled Peaches

These grilled peaches perfect dessert to make when you are short on time and especially if you’re grilling your main meal already. These […]
Mockingbird Cupcakes
This past week Jesse and I were driving around town doing some errands when we drove by Mockingbird Cupcakes in Elkhorn. We all know that I can’t pass up a good cupcake so we had to make a stop. Mockingbird Cupcakes was opened by 2 local twin sisters who apparently not only have killer baking […]
Friday Favorites: April 5th
Favorite Visual Beauty:Is this not just beautiful? Of course this gorgeously feminine and delicate arrangement comes from Ladurée, the founders of luxury desserts.

Thanksgiving For Two
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic day and were able to spend it with those you love. Jesse and I were not able to go visit our family because I had to stay in town to work Black Friday (dun dun dun). We started off our Thanksgiving morning by putting up […]
Autumn Care Package
This past weekend Jesse and I received a lovely autumn inspired care package from my parents. When I first opened the package it smelt heavenly, like pumpkin spice and a fruity sultry mix thanks to these beauties. As soon as I opened the box Jesse started reaching inside and yelling, “Dibs!” and “Mine!” but we […]
A Parisian Surprise
This weekend I received the most delightful gift in the mail. My sweet sister sent me a little taste of Paris in the form of authentic macarons from Pavillon Ledoyen Paris. It arrived in a box packed carefully with dry ice and surrounded with a surplus of styrofoam to ensure a safe arrival of these delicate desserts. […]
