Recipe: Billionaire Bars
Billionaire bars – I have no idea where it started. All I know is that it’s a complete combination of 4 awesome treats: shortbread cookie, salted caramel, cookie dough, and chocolate ganache. There are many recipes floating around Pinterest with regards to billionaire bars, but these ones are amazing. You need to try them. I’ve yet to make them gluten free, but I hope to soon – it was hard to make them and not sneak one. Ingredients Shortbread Layer 1/2 cup of brown sugar…

Recipe: Gluten Free Enchiladas
Gluten free enchiladas – so good. Oh, and they’re meatless, so perfect on this marvellous Monday. I have an enchilada sauce, which I suggest you use in this recipe; if you don’t have time to make it, then purchase a high quality product so your tastebuds don’t suffer. We are still on vacation and the wedding on Saturday was so fun – yet I didn’t want to miss passing on this fantastic recipe. You cook and we will hit up the Milwaukee Zoo today. Sound…

They are flat out in love. With regards to Noah, I want to share…

Sewing: Waxed Cotton Dopp Kit
Waxed Cotton Dopp Kit The perfect gift for my husband – his birthday was on Tuesday and I made this for him. The full tutorial for the kit is here: Man Travel Bag One note – I made the corners only 3 inches, so the kit would be flatter and longer.

Project: Turing 30
Turning 30 – that’s right, my husband turns 30 today! We are going to celebrate in style. This is the third time we will spend his birthday on the road, and the second time our destination is my family in Ontario. This guy is awesome. He’s not high maintenance in that he doesn’t need a special day all about him – he wants to just spend it with me. His kindness, however, shouldn’t go without a little celebration and special attention, right? So…what I’ve come…

Recipe: No Bake Peanut Butter Cookie
No bake peanut butter cookies. These are the absolute best. Really. Protein, sweet, and a tad salty. So good. Going gluten free has been so good. Not only do I feel great, but I’ve lost a couple of pounds, too. I certainly won’t complain about that. The one thing I miss most is cookies – chewy, gooey cookies. These totally fill that craving and they are healthy, ta-boo! Ingredients 3 1/2 cup of oat flour 1/2 teaspoon of salt 1/2 cup of honey 1/3 cup…
