I recently learned that it isn’t good to refer to that brown fuzzy fruit with a green inside as a Kiwi, because a Kiwi is a person from New Zealand. It is also a flightless bird that inhabits the island of New Zealand. So today I give you Kiwifruit ice cream, not Kiwi ice cream….

Harry Potter Sweets: Chocolate Frogs, Peppermint toads, and Licorice Wands
Are you getting excited? I am! Yesterday, I bought tickets online to see Deathly Hallows: Part II in 3D on Friday (Thanks Jess and Seth for the Fandango Gift card! We have been saving it for this very occasion!) Since the show premiers at midnight tomorrow, I really only have two more days to post…
Pumpkin Pasties
“Anything from the trolley? Anything from the trolley?” “Two pumpkin pasties, please.” Do you remember that part in Harry Potter? When Cho orders pumpkin pasties? I have always wanted to try these, and after making them I can see why Cho didn’t just get one! My husband, who lived in England for two years, says…

Graduation Hat Candies
Hello everyone!!! How are you today? I am doing surprisingly great today! I just packed everything I own except my laptop and my bed into a moving truck.

Chocolate Graham Cracker Cupcakes with Toasted Marshmallow

Pop Rock Cookies
Do you remember those candies that come in little envelopes that explode once they hit the moisture in your mouth? I used to love those when I was a young, and frankly, I still do! I went to an ice cream shop and they had pop rocks ice cream. I couldn’t resist it! I ordered…
