Fall is here, Thanksgiving is around the corner, and I am one happy lady. I love this time of year. For the falling leaves, the crisp air, my favorite seasonal produce, and all things pumpkin. Which brings me to the point of this post... Only a few days into November, and I've already roasted a [...]
Snickerdoodles.... a childhood favorite. A cookie with enough sentiment to bring you right back to after school cookies and milk at your best friend's house.

I am clearly on a summer dessert kick right now. Maybe it's because the weather has been absolutely gorgeous for the past two weeks. Because of the weather and the season and my general proclivity for being outdoors, we've been spending most days outside. I've even got a work station set up on our back porch. [...]
Oh moving. The joy. The excitement. The anxiety. The stress. Oh, and the bruises (at least I used all of my fitness)... But it's all worth it.
