Spoil Him This Valentine's Day!! Gift Ideas

Valentine's Day!   Valentine's Day is the day we express our love and appreciation for our love ones by showering them with gifts. Who doesn't want to make the day of their special someone wonderful and memorable?! Giving the man you love special gifts, brings so much joy.

Have him overwhelmed and smiling first thing in the morning with the funny and weird m...

Christmas Baking Time!! Brown Sugar Caramel pound cake

The Christmas Holiday if finally here!!! Take the time to really enjoy it. Christmas to me is about love, family, friends, hope, joy, peace, memories, festive decor, and bright lights. But what are the holidays without your favorite cakes, cookies, and holiday drinks?? It's something about those festive sugar cookie cut outs that makes your Christmas complete. The moist slices of sour cream and vanilla pound cakes that melt in your mouth. The homemade fruit cakes that my kids hate. Those Delicious holiday drinks that keeps us smiling.
