I love Andes Candies. When I was a kid, there was a restaurant my family used to go to sometimes. They had a little basket of Andes Candies near the entrance/exit of the restaurant. I always had to grab at least two of them to enjoy on the way home. Chocolate and mint is one [...]
We never go out on New Years Eve. It’s just to dangerous to be on the roads. Who wants to end up with a DUI or in a wreck caused by someone driving while intoxicated? I usually make some sort of delicious meal or appetizers and we enjoy some tasty beers at home. This year, [...]
Good morning and Merry Christmas Eve to all of you. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas tomorrow and have safe travels if you are traveling. Today I have the perfect Christmas cookie recipe for you. While this recipe is pretty simple, it does require chilling of the dough for one hour so be [...]
Last year I started a mission. A mission to make desserts other than pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving dessert. Don’t get me wrong, I love pumpkin pie but I just get sick of having it every year. I want variety. Change. Pumpkin goodies in forms other than pumpkin pie. So last year I made a Easy [...]

Fall is my favorite time of the year. Not only to the emergence of great Fall recipes occur, the emergence of great Fall beers occurs as well. Who can resist the Oktoberfest and Pumpkin beers? This gal sure can’t. Which brings me to my latest sweet treats recipe: Pumpkin Ale Cupcakes. Ever had Shipyard Pumpkinhead [...]
While at the store yesterday, my boyfriend saw a Pumpkin Spice Cake. He mentioned the cake a couple of times so I figured he must want something like that at the house. I told him that I could make one and that we didn’t need to buy one. Since today is Columbus Day, I had [...]
Last weekend marked the beginning of Fall (although, it doesn’t feel like Fall in Florida yet) so you know what that means. Pumpkin flavored goodies! A few of my all time favorites are pumpkin cake, pumpkin pie, pumpkin flavored coffee and last but not least, pumpkin bread. Today I will be traveling to Lakeland to [...]
Fall is quickly approaching us and it’s time to making all of those tasty fall recipes. Last night I decided to make a batch of sugar coated pecans to send to my foodie pen-pal and to one of my bloggy friends. Of course, there will be enough to keep some for myself. These pecans are [...]
