My mom immediately sent me this pic and said I had to blog it. It was flavorful, fruity, and a hit with everyone that night!! Simple to ...

White Chocolate Peppermint Martini’s
Oh boy this is one amazing concoction! Tis the season for this yummy drink! Last weekend, my parents went to a Christmas party in their neighborhood, but before they went, their friends came over for drinks and appetizers! My dad ended up whipping these Martini's up for all to enjoy and they were a ...
Jello Shots
A few weeks ago, my neighborhood hosted a crawfish boil and all the neighbors brought side dishes to share! I brought my Texas Sheet Cake and it was a huge hit! One of my neighbors brought jello shots for the adults to enjoy and they too were a huge hit. After having one, I decided I wanted to ...
Strawberry Coconut Daiquiri
Is it Friday yet?? Well, even if it isn't, I give you full permission to make this cocktail! Not only is it simple to throw together, but it will bring you to a place of warm weather, sunny days, and relaxation!! Sounds perfect, right? My hubby and I threw this together a few nights ago to go ...
Pop Pop’s Famous Hot Cocoa

Sounds ...
Guiltless Cake Batter Smoothie
Over the weekend, I was experimenting with fun new smoothie recipes, and came across this one. My family loved it, especially the kids. I think they were more in love with the fact it had sprinkles, but it made me feel good knowing that even though it tasted like a dessert, it was not nearly as bad ...
Strawberry Oatmeal Smoothie
Lately, I have been making TONS of new smoothies. Each afternoon, when my oldest kiddo gets home from school, I make all 3 kids an afternoon smoothie. Since my oldest gets home around 4 pm and we eat dinner around 5, its a nice way to keep them full until dinner, without loading them up with sugar ...
