Last week, my company had their holiday luncheon and I always look for a new recipe to make and came across this recipe for caramel chocolate shortbread.

I found this recipe for strawberry oatmeal bars and it was so simple to make! Both… Continue reading Strawberry Oatmeal Bars
It's time to Fill the Cookie Jar and this month's theme is "Mom's Favorites." I love sweets - I haven't found a dessert that I don't love. It's bad, but since turning 36 last month, I've noticed my metabolism has slowed down....really slowed down. I'm not happy about it. Now I need to be a… Continue reading Avocado Brownies – #FilltheCookieJar
