I love to cook. I know I’ve mentioned this many times before, but getting in the kitchen and having fun is one of my favorite things to do.

So in that spirit, I thought I’d share 10 favorite recipes that are perfect for everyday dinners! All of these recipes …

After a literal whirlwind of a trip to New York yesterday, I could seriously go for one of these stout floats! A playful twist on the classic root beer float that makes the most of the St. Patrick’s Day spirit, you really can’t go wrong.

Do you remember the mini Nutella pies we had a couple of lengthy conversations about during the holidays? (Those conversations, in review, basically went on and on about how amazing they are.) With Valentine’s Day coming up, I wanted to put a little twist on that tried and true favorite. So I started thinking about hearts and I started thinking about really incredible Bonne Maman cherry jam and, well, a little bit of magic was born. These are the perfect …

Dreamed up by Andrea Harper of Gray Harper Event Maker, I am all about this delightful combination of citrus and spice.

On that note, I won’t lie. While putting together this post there was a bit of an explosion of chocolate and melting whipped cream in my …
