Hi guys! What stuff are you into lately? Is there something that you’ve been obsessing over lately? Here’s the Stuff I’m Into: Turquoise Jewelry. Turquoise jewelry is classic and timeless and I especially love to wear it in the summer months. I’ve seen a few fashion bloggers on Instagram wear a variety of statement necklaces so when I found this turquoise necklace for only $38 I knew I had to have it. I usually like to wear light weight jewelry when it’s hot out but this piece is not as heavy as it looks. Totes. I pretty much own two types of …

Banana Doughnut Holes
Time to make the doughnuts. Does anyone remember that commercial? I know I’m dating myself but I always have to say that when I make doughnuts. Now when I say “doughnuts,” I use the term loosely. These are baked and not fried because I don’t own a fryer. There is a very good reason for that. (My waistline thanks me.) Every now and then my husband says that we should own one. He really wants to make “proper” fried yeast doughnuts. The problem is that we’d probably make them like every day. Plus the food blogger in me would probably want to try …
Chocolate Chip Scones
What makes brunch so fabulous? Perhaps brunch is popular because it’s an event where it’s socially acceptable to drink champagne before noon. Maybe you love it because it’s a good way to have breakfast, lunch and dessert at the same meal.

I think that might be the best part. #sweetjunkie If you’re hosting a brunch (like for Easter this Sunday), then scones are a must have addition. Just …
Best… Crumb Cake… Ever
Here’s the third installment in my Best Ever series! What’s it all about? Click here to get the scoop. Today I’m sharing with you the, Best… Crumb Cake… Ever. If you like big crumbs then this is the crumb cake to end all crumb cakes. I’ve made roughly a bazillion (roughly 😉 ) crumb cakes and coffee cakes. Wait, can you really compare crumb cakes to coffee cakes? They are similar but definitely different. Which one is better? I’m getting side tracked. Let’s save that debate for another day. For the purposes of today’s post it doesn’t really matter because this crumb cake trumps …
Chocolate Nut Strudel
Chocolate for breakfast is always a good idea. This strudel is not strictly for breakfast. In fact, my husband would probably say that this is really a dessert. I see bakery shops sell this kind of pastry with coffee. You drink coffee with breakfast. So naturally a pastry like this strudel should be eaten for breakfast. (Take that logic!) I’m a chocoholic so maybe you can’t go by me. This is not meant to be a big debate. If you make this strudel, you can eat it whatever time of the day you want. 🙂 I can’t even begin to tell you …
