Oatmeal Nutella Swirl Cookies
I am officially burnt out! Thank goodness it is Thursday and the weekend is almost here. This week with training has been so rough. I cannot believe how much I have done this week and as I look back on it…I am amazed that I am not falling asleep as I type this, haha. Whew…just one of those weeks. Next week should be much better and this weekend should be nice and relaxing for once. As a side note! Happy Birthday Mom! She had a birthday yesterday and I thought she deserved a mention. 🙂 How is the weather for you this week? It has been uncharacteristically hot for Connecticut.…

Swag Bars
Don’t holiday weekends always seem to fly by quicker than regular weekends? I swear every time there is a holiday week I feel like the time just FLIES by. I had a fabulous holiday weekend! I hung out with friends and had family friends from Kansas City come to visit. It was a weekend full of food, drinks, love, and sun! Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend if I had tried. I will make sure to post some pictures from the visit from the Ellenburger’s! It was SO great to see you guys! We miss you like crazy! 🙂 Now I call these Swag Bars because, well look at…

Raspberry Shortcake…Well, sort of.
I have a confession… I am totally excited about Friday! Why you ask?? Well, because a band named Hot Lunch is playing at a bar named Maximum Capacity in Chicopee, Mass. Did you just say hot lunch? YES I DID! It is a local band that I come to know and love. They however have not had a show in a very long time so I am so excited to go out and support them this Friday. I even talked to 3 of the band members on this past Saturday putting in my requests for their playlist, haha. I’ll be the one down in front dancing around singing at the…

Funfetti Cake Pops
Happy day after Easter! Although it isn’t too happy for me…I am sick at home with the flu :-(. YUCK!! I wonder if it had anything to do with the fact that I was stuffing my face with all sorts of glllorrrious sweets! I cannot tell you how much I missed having those sweet treats. I don’t eat a ton of horribly unhealthy things for me but when it comes to sweets. I just will not cannot control myself! I think it is because my mom has always made such amazing goodies ever since I can remember and now that I enjoy it so much, it was SO hard to…

Nutella Brownies
Good Monday Morning to you all! I hope you all had a great weekend. My weekend was rather rainy so I spent most of my time cooking and cleaning. I actually don’t mind that either! I am a rather clean person, some might say a neat freak. I however just like to call it organized, haha. I do tend to have a little OCD with certain things. For example, I am a “clean as you go” kind girl. My mother taught me this motto when I was younger as I would watch her bake the most delicious cookies and cakes. As she balanced a bowl and pan in both hands…

Nutella Banana Turnovers
I made it! 14 days on the detox and I made it. WHEW! What an experience that was! Thanks again to all of you out there that supported me the whole time. It was so very much appreciated, I cannot even express my gratitude. Although the detox is over there are some things that I learned from it that I really feel like I am going to keep with me. The eating small meals every few hours I think I am going to stick with. That really helped my body stay alert and full of energy, which I really liked. Another thing I want to keep doing is eating breakfast!…

Happy Valentine’s Day!! I hope you are all having a wonderful day so far and that your honey is treating you well! 🙂 I am currently on Day 1 of my Detox and it is going well so far. I am really excited and really focused so we shall see how it goes. I wanted to make some yummy treats before I went on this detox because I knew that I wouldn’t be able to enjoy candy on Valentine’s day. So I made Red Velvet Cupcakes with buttercream frosting. HOLY MOLY! What a way to kick off my detox. They were absolutely delicious! I was kind of scared that they…
