May I call you Pumpkin, Honey, Baby, Doll, Love, Precious, Sweetie, Suga…? I just got home from North Carolina where I attended a little show. Those sweet nothings above – those were my petnames for the duration of my trip in NC. The women there were sooo warm and friendly. Gotta love that oh-so-sweet southern twang. The accent makes it [Read more >>]

My stepmom, Esta, and I made this torte. Fact is, it’s pretty much a no-bake cheesekcake or cream pie (or whatever you wanna call it) with fresh Colorado peaches.

My dad and grandparents [Read more >>]

Amazing, delicious, OMG, wow – why didn’t I think of these!?
Recently we had a little contest, that some of you may have heard of…if not, you seriously need to join Club CandiQuik…
The contest was named the “Make Our Ad” Contest. The Grand Prize Winner is receiving free CANDIQUIK for a year – yes, FREE (I need that deal)!

“What do all these things have in common!?” I’m about to tell you. But first, I didn’t really expect to be posting this kind of blog post, for… I dunno, a long time. A reallyyy long time. Anyway, what I mean to say is – my brother is still like… 12 years old in my head. It was just [Read more >>]
Warning, do not feed these to: small children, your dog, or yourself… if you are wishing to sleep soon. ESPRESSO CAKE BITES ohhh – mee – ohhh – myy I almost didn’t share these.
