Buffalo Chicken Pockets

March 4, 2022

A previous version of this post for buffalo chicken pockets and buffalo chicken rolls was published in January 2013. We took new photos, updated some of the content in the post, and combined the rolls and pockets. Additionally, we removed our buffalo chicken pizza post. Instead, check this recipe out for fried buffalo chicken pizza! I’ve been wanting to redo photos for these buffalo chicken pockets for some time. It…

Christmas Party Boxes

December 25, 2020

The holidays this year will be very different for almost every family around the world. While we won’t be able to fill our Christmas Eve and Christmas Day up with family gatherings IRL, we rallied around some creative ideas to keep us engaged and connected. My aunt thought it would be fun to put together Christmas party boxes to drop off at each family. These Christmas party boxes were filled…

Homemade Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop Tarts

September 30, 2020

Pop tarts bring me back to my school days. Strawberry pop tarts were my jam (pun intended). However, brown sugar cinnamon pop tarts were my #2 favorite. I loved toasting them long enough so the non-frosted parts were just about to turn golden brown. I’d pick the sides off, eat them first, let the pop tart cool, and then eat the rest. I know, I’m a weirdo. When Fatima was…

Boozy Popsicles

August 26, 2020

This summer has been H-O-T, HOT. No one asked for this. The one, very small smidge of a silver lining in this pandemic has been not having to commute to work. I loved having a no-commute summer while I was parental leave. I have not missed traveling in the heat. To combat the return of the heat over the weekend, I took some of our favorite cocktails and turned them…

Dole Whip: Disney’s Not-So-Secret Secret Recipe

May 4, 2020

May the Fourth be with you! To celebrate Star Wars Day, we made Disney’s Dole Whip! It was the perfect weekend to try this recipe out. After weekends of damp and cold weather, this weekend was much needed (which challenged social distancing). We had a feeling it would be difficult to take a walk around the neighborhood with a toddler who refuses to wear a mask. So we took early…

Mini Cadbury Egg Kissed Pretzels

April 3, 2020

Hey you, we see you. Thanks for finding us. Right now, we are (by “we” I mean “the world”) going through something really awful. We’re all feeling something: stressed, upset, anxious, isolated, and a million other emotions all at once. You’re not alone. No, really, we want you to know that. While we may not be able to enjoy the physical presence of our friends, family, and neighbors right now,…

Holiday Chex Mix with Truffle Seasoned Salt

December 25, 2019

I always looked forward to Christmas day with my extended family because it meant a box of homemade Chex mix from my aunt Linda was waiting for us. We celebrate Christmas with my mom’s side of the family on Christmas Eve and my dad’s side on Christmas Day. My aunt Jean usually hosts Christmas Day, so all of the non-locals ship their packages to her house. My aunt Linda, who…

Homemade Kettle Corn

October 4, 2019

We somehow managed to survive without a microwave for three years. When we moved into our old apartment, it wasn’t until two weeks later that we discovered we didn’t have a microwave. We’ve never been big microwave people, so it wasn’t a huge issue. However, it meant no microwavable popcorn. In our last month at that place, we finally made popcorn on the stove. It was glorious. Since then, we’ve been…

Edible Cookie Dough

September 10, 2018

My favorite part about baking cookies is eating some of the cookie dough. Our friend, Stephanie, took us to a place called DŌ. It’s a shop dedicated to edible cookie dough. I fell in love. Since that visit, I haven’t had a chance to go back. Instead, I made my own edible cookie dough. Surfing Facebook one late night of trying to soothe Liam, I stumbled upon an edible cookie…

Muddy Buddies

March 7, 2018

This post on Muddy Buddies was originally published in August 2012. Pictures and text have been updated. Basically we gave this post an overhaul. Muddy Buddies (aka Puppy Chow) have been around for what seems like forever. However I never had them nor heard of them until I worked as an Orientation Leader in college. In the weeks leading up to our first new student orientation, the Orientation Leaders (or known as…

This post on Fried Oreos was originally published on September 18, 2012. Updates were made to photos, formatting, and text. Basically, it was completely rewritten. Happy New Year! This year, Fatima and I were planning to stay in. Thank goodness we chose to do that because it was so cold outside. We came back from our holiday in New Hampshire a little early so we could be back home before New Year’s…

Pumpkin Muffins

October 18, 2017

By now, you’re more than familiar with my pumpkin obsession. When I was searching for the perfect pumpkin bread pan a few years ago, I found the most fall-tastic pan from Williams-Sonoma. Attached to this pan, was a delicious pumpkin bread recipe. So, I dug up the tag and turned that pumpkin bread recipe into pumpkin muffins. All too often, I find a delicious bread recipe, wanting to make muffins.…

S’mores Camp Fire Treats

July 20, 2017

We had cereal and marshmallows left over from our Camp Fire Chex Mix and decided to make another treat! I didn’t know what else to do with the leftover marshmallows other than make Rice Krispie Treats. However, we only had Chex and Golden Grahams cereal. So, we pulled together a s’mores version of a Rice Krispie Treat. If you love s’mores and that Chex mix we made, then you’ll love these…
