Chocolate Reindeer Cupcakes
Santa, your reindeer taste so good! In the form of a super moist, super chocolatey cupcake. Of course, Rudolph and his friends are covered in whipped chocolate frosting that tastes almost mousse like and then decorated with chocolate covered pretzels, mini Nilla Wafers and M&Ms. Seriously, I never knew Reindeer could taste so good! Honestly though these are […]

And OMG I almost forgot about some heavenly Christmas Hot Cocoa! […]

Spaghetti Squash Pancakes
Why should leftover turkey have all the fun? Every year at Thanksgiving we always have spaghetti squash. I do not know why. Maybe it is because no one other than dad and I like brussel sprouts and green beans or maybe it is because I had an obsession with it five years ago and ate […]
