Italian Potato Nachos
One of the best feelings in the world is cleaning out your kitchen when making a meal. That can of diced tomatoes you've had lingering in the back of the cabinet? Throw it in. Half-used bags of shredded cheese? Let's get rid of them! The greatest meals I've ever whipped together were ones where I… Continue reading Italian Potato Nachos
Cherry Pie Cookies
Good news, guys. I didn't get botulism! It's now been over 24 hours, so I think I'm good. I'm breathing a sigh of relief. If you want to read why I thought I would get botulism, click here. Since I'm botulism free (I think), I'm celebrating by eating all the good stuff. My coworker brought… Continue reading Cherry Pie Cookies
Christmas Shortbread Bites
One of the best parts about Christmas is all of the goodies leading up to the day. Homemade candies, party mixes and cookies abound. Cookies are never in short supply in my house around the holidays. I don't usually break outside of the box when it comes to Christmas cookies, though. My mom, grandma and… Continue reading Christmas Shortbread Bites
White Chocolate Mocha Cookies
Do you know how hard it is to find cookie cutters in May? It's extremely difficult. I guess most people relegate their cookie-cutter shopping to the months surrounding Christmas.

Your options are either (a) spend way too much money on an overpriced… Continue reading White Chocolate Mocha Cookies

I'm constantly searching for the perfect weird cookie combination. Chocolate chip? Nah. Too normal. Oatmeal raisin? Get out of here with that.

Everybody and their mom has a favorite chocolate chip… Continue reading Pineapple Cake Cookies

There's a grove of trees near Lake Hefner where you can… Continue reading Persimmon Spice Cookies
Lemon White Chocolate Cookies
I finally did it. I successfully melted white chocolate! My last attempt ended with me yelling every obscenity under the sun alone in my kitchen. I think I know why it worked so well this time---I used white chocolate baking bars instead of white chocolate chips. I read the back of the box and followed the instructions… Continue reading Lemon White Chocolate Cookies
Apple Pie Cookies
Pie or cookies? I'm faced with this dilemma a lot in my life, I feel. Cookies and pie are my favorite desserts, hands down. I love pie so much I plan on having a pie bar at my wedding. Plus, cupcakes are so last year. As for cookies, they are easy to make and easy… Continue reading Apple Pie Cookies
Pumpkin Oat Chip Cookies
Oklahoma City has finally joined the civilized world...WE GOT A TRADER JOE'S, Y'ALL!! I'm so freaking excited. I decided not to venture to the new grocery store on the very first day of its opening, so I went the next day...and it was well worth it. Even though the small building was packed, the lines flowed quickly. I had… Continue reading Pumpkin Oat Chip Cookies
