Every year, I get so excited when the summer fruit starts to come in. There isn’t much that’s better than fresh berries. Except for fresh berries and chocolate. For breakfast. And the best part is that they have no butter or oil in them (so please don’t use fat-free ricotta, or you’ll end up with tough little muffins).
It’s the 10th of the month! Guess what that means!?!? I’ll tell you, it’s pretty fun… Each month on the 10th, TEN of my creative friends will will share a project on their blog around the same theme. You can hop to their blogs to see what they created and save their projects after viewing mine. Pin this collage below, and make sure you come back on the 10th each month! In May, the theme is CITRUS.
These little “gems” are worth their weight in gold (or a few pounds on the scale, at least!) Even though I’m on this diet I talked about last month I just had to taste these cookies to make sure they were good enough to share…well, they most definitely are!! So much so, I have to confess I think I ate 7 of them. I just couldn’t stop. I’m weak. Very weak.
Don’t be hesitant about this recipe because of the ricotta. It makes the cookies soft and delicious…trust me, I would never lead you astray! And once the glaze hardens, they are perfect for packing up and taking to a friend, neighbor or teacher. Just think how these would brighten someones day!
Come check out the recipe and all the other creative CITRUS ideas!

Last month, my mom had her annual Valentine’s Day party. All the kids (my siblings and I) were asked to bring a yummy Valentines-ish treat. I brought my favorite pink Cherry Chocolate Fruit Dip. My sister in laws brought pink popcorn and a strawberry cheesecake. The dessert table was totally pink, red, and fancy. And,…
I recently received the long-awaited cookbook from the Six Sisters. Thumbing through it, I was trying to decide which, of the many yummy recipes, to try first. The second I flipped to the Lunch Lady Peanut Butter Bars page, I knew. Memories came flooding back of my elementary school days, the days where I was…
Happy 6th baby, Mariel! You are amazing and such a good mom. I’m wishing you a newborn who sleeps through the night instantly, lots of chocolate and older children who do nothing else but help. However, if none of those come through for you, assign and/or command a friend or family member to make these…
I have definitely been on a strawberry kick this last month. I just can’t seem to get enough of them! Anything and everything strawberry is just calling my name! What I’ve really been craving is some chocolate dipped strawberries! Valentine’s Day is coming up…I’ll have to start dropping some “very subtle” hints.:) Last month I…
I usually get the “spring fever” bug when the weather in my neck of the woods starts teasing us during February and starts warming up, but this year it’s struck me a wee bit earlier. I think it’s because of the super cold weather we’ve been having, I’m longing for the lighter nights, the smell…

I can’t believe it’s almost Christmas! It has really crept up on me this year. I’m still scramblin’ to get all our shopping done. Every year I have big dreams that I’ll have all the shopping done before December so that I can just enjoy the wonderful Christmas season, but that has yet to ever…
This has been a rough week for recipes. Twice now, I thought I had just the one to share with you…Sparkling Peppermint Punch…Peppermint Oreo Truffles…eh, fail. They sound good, right?? I thought so. They were nasty-poo. I even had pretty pictures, but you’ll never see them. On a happier note, check out my little Joey. …
