Okay, so here’s the situation… I was not actually ever going to post this. I had all these photos in my iPhoto album titled “Dumb” where I keep all my second rate photos. I go to “Dumb” once in a while when I’m really bored and edit all the photos that live there in the … Read more

The broken record strikes again.I mean, I’ve poured melted chocolate over the crusts of cheesecake before. I’ve even done chocolate covered pretzel crusts before. Somehow though, I don’t really hear anyone complaining. Okay, that’s slightly a lie. People always complain about something. But seriously, “the crust is too thick”??? I don’t get that. If you’re … Read more

You could also make marshmallow flower cupcakes or cupcake toppers or just cover them in chocolate and coconut. The point is, you have to play with your food.
