Banana Drop Cookies

 Today you’re in for a sweet treat, not that I didn’t put you on a sugar high coma with all the chocolate sweets I shared lately. Unfortunately my kitchen will be closed for little over 2 weeks. I’m taking a short vacation from baking, getting and setting my mind on a church event I have…

Chocolate Chip Brownie Bars

Lately I have been thinking about my Stay-at-home-Mom status. I feel like I’m telling a lie when I’m asked what I’m doing and I reply by ” I’m a Stay-at-home-Mom to a 2-year-old”. I should tell people I’m a “Mother of a two-year old who rarely stays home”. Seems like telling the truth. In the…

Every year shortly after Thanksgiving we receive the Christmas gifts from my Mother in Law.  She starts her Christmas shopping during the summer and by the end of November she’s done, gifts sent and anxious waiting for Christmas. Every year she surprises me with different gifts, and she has some taste! I just love her!…

Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Cookies

The first time I tried peanut butter was years ago,  before I came to US. I was curious after hearing about it in the American movies. I wasn’t that impressed so I gave up the thought of trying it again. Once arrived on American land the curiosity pushed me again and bought another jar.  This…

After more than 2 years of being a SAHM I find myself in need of more “adult” talk. Hubby’s working all day so I reached out to some wonderful moms in the community for play dates and “adult” talk. We went out a couple of times. I’m having such a great time. I hope there…

Yesterday we were out most of the day. Everywhere I turned there was chocolate, hearts and sweet red/pink gifts. To my surprise there were even Easter decorations. I’m OK with both Valentine’s and St. Patrick decorations in the same time, but Easter, well, I think it’s a little too early. Now that I take a…

I love all my friends. I love my friends with different diets. I love when we get together and I have to challenge myself in making a treat that we all can enjoy. My friend Tabitha has a mild gluten intolerance. To top that she’s having a sensibility to the fava bean flour found in…

Chocolate Covered Cookies

These chocolate cookies are the last ones from my bake sale cookie-thon. Leave the best for last, i may say. Well, all the cookies were a hit but if someone asked me which one was my favorite than these chocolate ones would have been my answer. What’s not to love about them? The chocolate cookie…

Gingerbread Village

I think gingerbread is one of those Christmas treats you either love it or leave it. It may sound weird to some of you, but this year it was the first time I tried the American style gingerbread. You see, I grew up with a gingerbread that I adored. I would have never thought of…
