Happy Sunday, y’all! I made an unfortunate discovery this week – the natural lighting in my kitchen is almost nonexistent. This is not good for food photography. Alas, I have found the first flaw in my otherwise perfect kitchen. That being said, the lighting in my pictures may be all over the place. The perfectionist …
Last week was a bit out of the ordinary – although, while I thought school would get us into a routine, every week has been out of the ordinary these days. I guess I need to adjust my expectations! Maj went hunting last weekend while I started painting the ceiling in our living room/kitchen. If …
I’ve been holding onto this recipe for over three weeks now, for no reason other than I have been devoting all of my free time to crossword puzzles. I have a problem. Tonight, I put the puzzle book down for a few minutes to bring y’all this goodness. How good is it, you ask? It …
Hi friends! Since I haven’t posted in a while, I’m doing a Tuesday TWENTY today… A lot has happened in the past three weeks! A few days after ringing in the new year, Moose, Bear, Maj and I hit the road to Texas. We left Virginia just in time, as it started snowing right when …
Hello, my fellow dessert lovers! Since these next couple of weeks are quite busy for my little family, as I am sure they are for many of you as well, I figured I would share two of my favorite super simple recipes. Like, these are probably some of the easiest recipes I will ever post. …

Since this is the Christmas Edition, I couldn’t keep it to ten things… So this is actually the Tuesday Thirteen. 😉 The Perine Christmas Weekend festivities started on Friday when Maj and I went to see The Greatest Showman. Y’all. The movie was so good! Even Samajé liked it, and he is not a fan …
Merry (almost) Christmas! I feel like I started celebrating the season super early this year and Christmas still snuck up on me! The holidays are always a busy time, but it is the best kind of busy. In honor of it almost being the best day of the year, today I am sharing my favorite …
Since I featured Samajé’s favorite Christmas cookie last week, this post is all about my favorite! This molasses cookie recipe is another of my Grandma’s seasonal staples. Every year, once the pumpkin bread fades away, the molasses cookies step in and take its place. I modified the recipe slightly from a family cookbook, realizing soon …
(Today is my mom’s birthday. Happy birthday Mom!) I can share details of last week’s project now! Last Monday, I baked over 20 dozen cookies, packaged them up, and sent them out to 15 family members and friends. Sadly, a few boxes did not make it to their recipients in time (before they went home …
