Because my mother is awesome, I tend to consider Mother’s Day months prior. This year, I went through the same series of hurdles when trying to decide what to give her.
I could buy her some nice slippers. She has an odd fetish for them, or something. I’m certain [...]

There are a plethora of festive Easter recipes out there. Too many, in fact.
Passover is obviously overlooked. One of the reasons being that it is far from a Hallmark type of holiday. It is more about practice, and culture.
As I grew up celebrating both sides of the [...]

I created a few sweet and salty snacks with an Easter/spring theme for Pretzel Crisps. You could even use this for an Alice in Wonderland or Velveteen Rabbit (just change the candy melt colors) party.
The great thing about these:

I clearly cannot let go of Mardi Gras. I promise you one day that I will be there.
This is not to say that I have never visited NOLA. We stopped by during a more ambiguous time of year for a wedding.

Not all of us will be able to attend Mardi Gras this year. Or ever.
That’s okay, though. You can make up for it by creating these cookies. They are so cute I can’t even take it. Oh, if you are attending the festivities, then you are required to [...]

A certain company that sells cookware, and tableware also happens to sell food (their initials may be W.S. )
They are currently selling a peanut butter cup cake, and the moment I laid eyes on it I pissed myself and screamed, “I MUST MAKE A COPYCAT VERSION!!”
So before [...]
