You know when you see a photo of a perfect holiday dessert and it just yells out to you “make me!” “pick me!” “love me!” Well, that happened to Miss Niss when she saw the recipe for Peppermint Marshmallow Cream Cups on Lemons for Lulu. I really should’ve been packing for my upcoming move. But, […]

Mohegan Sun WineFest 2014
A-Tooch and Miss Niss were lucky enough to be invited to the Mohegan Sun WineFest again this year. We look forward to this event for a few reasons: 1) Mohegan Sun is equidistant between New York City and Boston, so it’s a perfect meeting place for us. 2) We love wine. A lot. 3) We […]
Root Beer Float Cupcakes
It’s always a challenge to think of a fun birthday dessert for someone who doesn’t go nuts over desserts the way I do. What can I create to make him excited about dessert? It has to contain one of his favorite things, and no I don’t mean steak cupcakes. Although, maybe that’s not a bad […]

Holiday Gluttony
The end of December is a time for gluttony. TFAW are always willing to join in the trend.

Vanilla bean and coconut bourbon cake – an […]
Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Miss Yunks thinks about cookies a lot and in her home she talks about cookies a lot. After a conversation about our favorite chocolate chip cookies, she was determined to find a new recipe for her favorite cookie. I love thick, chewy chocolate chip cookies. I’ve made plenty of cookies before, but I’ve never had […]
