Real mom, real kids, real meals.
Holy Moly!! Week 42! Only 10 more weeks to go!! I honestly cannot believe it!! To mark this milestone, I have a very special cookie for you! This cookie is totally out of my comfort zone, which I sort of love of about it. My brother, who works for Bear’s Barbeque in Connecticut asked me […]
Sweet potato in a cookie!?! Probably not what you normally think of when you think of cookies. Me neither!! If you asked me 41 weeks ago if I thought I would be baking a sweet potato cookie I probably would have looked at you like you were crazy, but here we are. I wanted to […]
Since I started this weekly cookie baking I have had friends send me recipes of cookies that they thought would be a good addition to the blog. This is one of those cookies and I’m so glad I tried them. I think they will become a mainstay in our house. Not only are they delicious […]
There has been a chill in the air and we are definitely diving head first into fall. If you are like me everything on my social media feeds is screaming fall, apple, pumpkins, sweaters, lattes, etc.!!! I decided to jump on the band wagon and do a fall inspired cookie. I had some apples delivered […]
I have been wanting to bake Neapolitan Cookies for awhile and then I saw Sarah Keifer’s Neapolitan Cookies from her new book, 100 Cookies, popping up all over the place and knew that it was a sign to give them a try. First of all, she’s a cookie genius and second of all I wish […]

In a land far far away, before me baking 52 weeks of cookies was even a thing, I promised a friend I would make Black Forest Cookies for his birthday. Well, that land far far away might have been a dive bar after a boozy dinner, so when his birthday rolled around in early March, […]
My youngest has been asking me to make these cookies for awhile and I figured this week was the perfect time. We just finished our first week of virtual schooling and we all needed a pick me up, some in the form of double chocolate and m&m cookies and others in the form of double […]
My daughter and I have been binging the show, Hart of Dixie, this summer. It was originally on the CW from 2011-2015, but has been brought back to life by Netflix. The general premise is that a New York doctor, played by Rachel Bilson, ends up as a GP in a very small Alabama town. […]
When I get anxious, one way I cope is to dream of picking up my little family and moving to some idyllic location. The location changes, but the premise is always the same, let’s just sell it all and move! These cookies are a representation of my current bought of feeling anxious and where I […]
