Baking through the Martha Stewart app
This time of year is…awkward. Halloween is over, I’m ready for Christmas, but there’s still the problem of Thanksgiving in the way. I think this recipe will fit the inbetween season well.
This comes from Martha’s new book, Cookie Perfection.
PERFECTION?! That’s a strong word, Martha! Yeah…I pre-ordered it because LOOK AT IT. Continue reading

Hiiiiiiii! I lied to you last time. It’s been a year. Do I even remember how to bake?
Well, I’ll tell you right now…the answer is no! I have a friend, Lindy, who is not eating dairy right now. Fall is in the air (literally, with all my fall candles from Bath & Body Works #notsponsored #pleasesponsorme), so I thought it would be a good idea to make some vegan pumpkin bread! That recipe was not by Martha and it failed, miserably. But this blog is not about that bread, it’s about the dairy-free cookies I tried the next day:
This recipe is in her A New Way to Bake cookbook. This “new way” excludes flour and dairy. This recipe is not on her website. Is this a sign of things to come? Continue reading
You might have thought that I’d be one-and-done like last year when I returned and only blogged once. Well, baby don’t believe what you hear. The grande dame still holds center court.
OK, maybe that was a Karen Huger quote, but it applies to this situation and the fact that I’ve been trying to catch up on the Real Housewives of Potomac which is amazing this season!
Anyway, remember when I jokingly asked someone to buy me the Martha Stewart Cookies book?
Shoutout to my friend Matt who just bought his way into this blog post! #spon
We decided to make these:

“I feel inspired,” he said, as he pulled back the iPad Smart Cover and slid his finger across the bright screen. There it was, an old friend. The Martha Makes Cookies app was waiting. The blog readers were waiting. Excitedly, he tapped the icon. Then, the unthinkable occurred: Continue reading

The holiday season might be gone, but this was a pre-Christmas baking event, so deal with it.
We had my niece, Ava, over for an all-day baking extravaganza. We made peanut butter kiss cookies, glitter balls, peppermint bark (that failed), and these. Continue reading
One of my most loyal (and cookie-excitable) followers from work had a birthday last week, so I obviously had to bake something for her.
This are actually pretty similar to the super popular PB&J Bars, but read on anyway! Continue reading

I’m ready for the holiday season and I don’t even care. We’re a third of the way through November and that’s enough. It’s 34º right now, so it’s certainly appropriate.
Time for some holiday cookies! I didn’t even know if they still sold Hershey’s Hugs, but good news. They do. Continue reading
Oh, hi. Did you forget that I had a cookie blog? So did I. I can’t believe it’s been 4 months since I baked cookies and posted a blog – ew!
Anyway, it’s my favorite time of year. Although these look Christmasy instead of Halloweeny, they’ve got cinnamon and that’s close enough.
I thought these would be an easy way to get back into the groove of baking. I mean, there were only 7 ingredients and one of them was water. Continue reading

The sun is out, the birds are chirping, and it’s the perfect time for Springtime treats. Not today. 
These look pretty normal and appropriate for this time of year. Well, visions are not always as they seem. Continue reading
