Drop a line during Summertime

June 27, 2014 by Drafts & Crafts

We can get so caught up in our busy lives that we forget to keep in touch with the people who mean most to us. Summertime is the time for easy living.. so take a moment, get inspired, and drop a line to a friend or two, the old fashioned way, handwritten cards!

PARTY ANIMAL brownies! (low fat-ish)

Kitchen, Uncategorized

July 16, 2014 by Drafts & Crafts

Whenever guests come into town, I like to make something sweet that can be enjoyed over the course of their stay. Check out this sweeeeet dessert recipe that would be great for any summer hangout.

The last time that my husband and I had friends in town I made the Nutella Cheesecake Mousse in mason jars (recipe can be found in older post). Now Jason’s mother, stepfather, and sister are coming to visit us and I know how they like their sweets!! Sometimes the best dessert to have around is one that is practical, something that can be easily grabbed out of the fridge or right off the counter at anytime! I recently saw this idea a magazine… adding a clever name is always bonus points in my book!
