lemon bars


Before mother's day, my mom's friend gave us lemons from his lemon tree. We got at least a dozen and my mom suggested we should make lemon bars with them. So on mother's day my mom and I (mostly my mom I have to admit) made lemon bars. We got the recipe from my Meme. They are delicious and the lemons are SUPERB. I love lemons but don't usually like lemon bars but these are #1.
By the way if anyone reading this ever wants a recipe let me know and I can email it or put it up here.

chocolate cupcakes


For my Grandma's birthday, I made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate buttercream frosting. The recipe was from The Magnolia Bakery Cookbook. So far that is my favorite cookbook for desserts. They are always nice and moist and the frosting was nice and creamy :)
I got this cook book from my Meme and Papa!

oatmeal chocolate chip cookies

Tonight I made oatmeal chocolate chip cookies :) it was either that or snickerdoodles. Most people have only had oatmeal raisin cookies, but I prefer oatmeal chocolate chip. I used the recipe on the lid of the Quaker Oats container with my touch to make the perfect cookie with the perfect ratio of oatmeal to chocolate chips!

day one.

So I'm not sure what to put here, But I'll start by saying I'm not much a writer if I was this would probably have a different name. I really like to bake stuff, because its fun, delicious and always makes people happy. Every time I bake something I will post pictures of it on here and write a little description. Enjoy!
