This year I am pregnant which is making it that much worse. Just a smell of those spices, or a picture on a box and I am hooked already. Another little fact about me is that I hate being generic. I have to have a different recipe for everything than everyone else, I always “spike” mine with this and that so it is my recipe alone. At first I hesitated to share my secrets but why shouldn’t everyone have the best?
Since cooking is one of my favorite things to do I am always on the look out for new recipes or ingredients.
There are endless possibilities for delicious Nutella recipes!
I have recently been introduced to Nutella, a spread made of hazelnuts, chocolate, and skim milk. I love the taste of hazelnut anything so I had to find some recipes I could use it in.

However, many bakers identify this as the time to break out their zucchini nut bread recipe! Why does it have to be a big, farm size zucchini you may wonder. It doesn’t have to be, but since they are not all that good for eating, they are great for [...]
When Maddie was younger and getting to the age when most children are starting to put together sentences, it was pointed out to me by my family and her pediatrician that she wasn’t “behind” but could be doing better with her vocabulary. I knew this myself but I also knew the main reason: not all children develop exactly the same. Some walk at 8 months and some at 15 months. Is one behind? No, they just do things at their own decided pace. Maddie is one of the children who [...]
You must love how the mind of a two year old works. It is so simple and yet so smart, the complete opposite of an adult’s. We have a recipe that has been in the family for probably fifteen years now, I know – not long compared to some hundred year old family recipes, but it’s long enough. It calls for only four ingredients but it is addicting and divine. We call them peanut butter balls, I call them peanut butter truffles as it sounds more sophisticated. How to make [...]
