photo via damndelicious.net Happy Monday, friends! If you follow along over on Instagram then you know Mondays are typically my food prep/planning days, and I thought it would be fun to bring that over onto the blog today!

I’ve never been a big liquor drinker, but I do enjoy visiting the distilleries and hunting down the “rare” bourbons for our collection. It’s a fun game! I wanted to come up with a...

I’ve officially jumped on the quarantine baking bandwagon – it was only a matter of time, right? As much as I love cooking though, baking is not my expertise.  I’ve never been a fan of measuring when I cook, and baking is all about exact measurements. It almost feels like a science, which was never my favorite subject in school 😉 Well I’m starting with baby steps here, and this recipe is SUPER easy! If I can do it, anyone...

One of my favorite things to do on the weekend is test out new recipes, and since we recently got an air fryer I am learning that there is a whole new world of possibilities! These soft pretzel bites are my latest creation and they turned out SO good!! Pretzel bites are the perfect snack, and great for a crowd – just set out some cheese dip, spicy mustard, or Nutella to dip them in! If you want to make...
