Once again, Joy the Baker has brought something wonderful into my world. Anything with “chocolate” in the title twice is worth baking, am I right?! This bread is almost chocolate cake-like…the perfect thing for the day after my birthday! It was deliciously amazing. I loved finding those melted bits of chocolate. It was like gold! […]

Peanut Butter Rice Krispy Treats
Most everyone (or at least most kids) love a good Rice Krispie Treat. I know I do. I’ve made a couple pans before but struggled to get the right consistency. It probably had something to do with the age of my marshmallows, honestly. :) This batch turned out just right! And if you love peanut […]

Whole Wheat Buttermilk Pancakes
I know, I’m on some sort of a pancake kick. I’m ok with that. Aren’t you? Who doesn’t love pancakes? Seriously. I found this recipe in my trusty Betty Crocker Cookbook. I figured the recipe “as is” wouldn’t be nearly as good as Joy’s Whole Wheat Banana Walnut Pancakes, so I changed a few things […]

The One with the Birthday Account
Not sure if you noticed my updated WFMW post. After announcing the goodness that is free DQ and Coldstone, I was informed of at least three more venues with Birthday Clubs. I signed up on the evening of the 18th. In hopes that I would still reap the benefits of restaurants on my birthday. Just […]
The One with the Piano Music
Things that need to be documented. The Chocolate Overload Blizzard from Dairy Queen is A.mazing! You don’t feel nearly as guilty downing 700 plus calories when you walk the mile and a half to the campus of EMU. And back again. Because you’re took cheap to pay for parking. So you leave at the Dairy […]
The One with the Free Ice Cream
This particular tip is about to work for me today! Kevin and I are going to cash in my birthday Blizzard coupon from the one and only Dairy Queen. Yes, that’s right. Because my birthday’s tomorrow, the DQ has sent me a coupon. Buy one 16oz Blizzard, get one free! Rock on! And not only […]
The One with the Trilogy of Pancakes
So many things. one. We signed up for yet another health insurance plan. After Kevin’s contract at WSU ran out, we lost HAP coverage. Which I’m really sad about. Because it was phenomenal. So we’re back with Blue Cross. It’s a great plan. But paying $300 a month for issues that may or may not […]
