Football Cookies
How was your Superbowl Sunday? Did your team win? I wasn’t really partial to either one of the teams. I don’t care for Brady or Eli all that much. Truly, I was hoping to see the Packers in the Superbowl. Not that they are a team I follow closely, but I thought they deserved it. I am a Chiefs and Steelers fan, so both of my teams were gone long before the Superbowl. Although my Chiefs did win against the Packers so that was exciting. Not that it had any kind of bearing on the Packers at all, but delivering their first lost was definitely a proud moment for my…

Hello All!Thank you all so much for putting my Sautéed Tilapia Tacos in the Top 9! What a great present for today! Because…today is a big day… I turn 27 today! Yup birthday girl here! 😀 Lucky 27, right Becci? 😉 Lots of fun things going on for me today. Some of my friends from work are taking me out to a Happy Hour after work today, which is always fun. Drinks and friends, is there anything better? I say there is not! Tomorrow, Patrick is being a doll and taking me to our favorite Sushi restaurant in Hartford called Feng. We actually had our first date there ♥ ♥.…

Mini Chocolate & Peanut Butter Cookies
Yay Patrick! Look at you go, your Whole Wheat Waffles made the Top 9! Thanks everyone for the Top 9, I know Patrick is really excited about it. You should have seen his face when I showed him the notification on my phone this morning at 6:30am haha. Too cute! I am so excited that Turkey day is tomorrow. I think I am more excited about not having to go to work than anything else haha. Sometimes you just need a break you know? It will be nice to just spend some time with the family cooking and telling stories and then napping once we stuff ourselves with turkey hehe…

Black Bean Brownies…say what?
First off thanks so much everyone for the Top 9 today for my White Turkey Chili! I really appreciate all of your support. 🙂 What a terrible week for my Alma Mater :-(. I am so shocked and mortified by the actions of Jerry Sandusky. However, this doesn’t change my love for my Nittany Lions. We are a strong University and I know that we will come out better than before after this horrible tragedy. My thoughts and prayers are with JoePa and his family as well as the families who were affected by this horrible tragedy. After all JoePa has done for the college and the students…this is such…

Wedding Cake Cookies
I literally mean Wedding Cake shaped cookies 🙂 One of the girls that I work with, Kristin, is getting married on Oct 14th so the women at the office decided to throw her a small bridal shower. I made the cookies for the shingdig and my mother made the cake. I don’t have any pictures of the cake, but I assure you it was absolutely gorgeous. She is so talented. Someday I hope I am as good as she is at decorating things; at least I have her as my teacher! Kristin’s colors are purple and cream so my Mom and I wanted to make sure that the cookies and…

We missed you Mich! 🙁 Always good to have a long weekend, but it always feels like they go faster than the normal weekends. AmIRight?

Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Cookies
Another weekend has come and gone…the golf tournament last week went really well. My team and I had a fabulous time golfing. We certainly aren’t what you would call “golfers” but we definitely had fun and played some decent golf. Since I was the captain of the golf team I wanted to make sure that my team was equip with all the essentials. Music, booze, and cookies…hehe 😉 Personally, I was not a fan of how these cookies came out but everyone seemed to really enjoy them. I didn’t have any butter so I had to substitute Crisco in, which we all know changes the texture and flavor of the…
