Conversation Heart Sugar Cookies

Wishing you all an early happy Valentine’s day! I know there are some people out there who aren’t the biggest fan of this holiday, but I happen to enjoy it…mainly for one reason. It is conversation heart season. Conversation heart candies are like my crack. I really shouldn’t like them

Cheddar Pretzel Bites

I think it is interesting how throughout a person’s life they experience hundreds upon thousands of things, but only some of them are transcribed to the depths of our memories. There are days that I can’t remember what I wore the day before, but I can recall my first experience
