About

I’m the momma of a spunky, energetic, and often frustrating three year old boy and an adorable, bouncing, gurgling and drooling baby boy. I’m up to my arm pits in all things boys and loving every minute of it. Well, most of the time.

I’m also a wanna-be photographer, aspiring baker of all things chocolate and creative woman, all rolled into one. Of course my posts are sprinkled with my photos, especially food. I love food. In fact, I share at least two  recipes every week. My favorite day by far is Sweet Tooth Friday, an entire day dedicated to all things sweet. Yum!

In my past life I was a graphic designer, and still dabble in freelance design {need a new blog design, I’m your woman} and I still get the creative itch every once and again (no, there isn’t a cream for that, I checked). So if you see my blog change styles often, you know why.

I was so excited when I found your site! You seem to have some yummy recipes. I am super busy with work and my family but I love to cook. I started my website because I thought more people would enjoy cooking if they could see a picture. I have about 300 recipes and all have at least 1 picture.

Can’t wait to try some of your reicpes!

So glad you visited our site. I’m thrilled to find your beautiful site. Hope the potty training has progressed since you updated your “about” page. We’re just getting over that stage so I can sympathize. Looking forward to following you and exchanging more recipes in the future. Thank you!

I too am an Allison. I too have two boys, a two year old and nine month old. I too love me some chocolate and can’t live without my coffee! I found your blog during a search for homemade coffee creamer and thought I must have created a blog in my sleep and just didn’t remember. This is all me, up one side and down the other. You are now at the top of my favorites list!
p.s. I can’t wait ’til Friday!

I randomly happened to find your website looking up how to make a peppermint mocha. It looks really awesome!!! I have a son that’s going to be one on Saturday. :) I was just wondering, where are you from?
