I can’t stop looking at gum paste flowers. Seriously. They are so creative and beautiful. Some look so realistic I don’t think you can tell a difference at first glance. I really wanted to try creating some roses with gum paste. I bought the Wilton gum paste powder from a craft store, a few different […]

Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Blondies
Now that I have been working on eating clean for over a month I have often been splurging on the weekends. 1. that is when I do most of my baking, cooking, and editing. 2. that is when Patrick and I have the same days off and usually go try new restaurants. Which by the […]

Spicy Fried Chicken
There comes a time in everyone’s life where you have to decide: breast or thigh? I very rarely had fried chicken growing up.
