Let me head you off at the beginning, I’m not following a paleo diet. Truth be told I can’t even say the word “paleo” correctly. I thought it was pronounced as pa-lay-o, emphasis on the lay. One day my husband corrected me. It’s pay-lee-oh, you know, like the era before the dinosaurs? Well, I have a mental block now so I still say it wrong, every single time, and my husband kindly corrects me every single time. I swear I’m actually an intelligent person and can be taught. Just not this time. 😉 Yesterday my girlfriend asked me where I …

Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bites
I get choked up when NYC counts down the last 10 seconds of the year before the ball drops. Does anyone else get emotional when that happens? (Assuming you also watch it or something similar.) Maybe you can’t go by me because I cry at the same sad scene in a movie even if I’ve seen it a bazillion times. My new year’s resolution is to lose a few pounds, again. I seem to have that resolution about 10 or 30 times during the entire year so I’m not sure if that’s truly a resolution except that it happens to …
Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie
One giant cookie is always a good idea. Folks, you’ve heard it here first… I’m officially tired of making cookies for the season. If you follow this blog you probably know why that is. I’ve made about a bazillion of them in the past couple of months (give or take). So… yeah… I’m done. Or am I really done? I think baking one ginormous cookie is the exception because it’s like making a brownie. Technicalities. 😉 I highly recommend using a 9 inch size oven safe skillet for this recipe because the directions are specific to that size. I had previously tried …
Gingerbread Drop Cookies
It doesn’t feel like Christmas until I’ve had some gingerbread cookies and hot chocolate. (Not necessarily together but I totally recommend it.) Guys, I’m super duper excited to share these cookies with you! I have been looking for YEARS for a good gingerbread cookie that doesn’t require a rolling pin and I’ve finally found it! I love gingerbread man cookies but I have issues with rolling cookies. Maybe it’s the perfectionist in me that feels like I never seem to roll them all to the right size and thickness. There’s got to be an easier way to satisfy my gingerbread craving without …
Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
No Christmas is complete without crinkled cookies. Can you believe this is the first year that I’ve ever made a crinkle cookie? I’m stunned. I’ve made about a bazillion cookies and the crinkly ones never seemed to make the cut. I’ve been missing out. No mas. First of all these cookies are mad easy to make. I don’t know about you but I could do with a little easy in my life, especially this time of the year and also especially when I’ve been making more complicated cookies. These are beautifully covered in my precious (aka powdered sugar) so of …
