Oh la la! Crêpe cakes are always impressive. Luckily, these stunners look like they took far more effort than they actually do. Using fresh, plump & juicy sweet strawberries from my local Kroger along with my favorite whipped buttercream, this show-stopper centerpiece is the best way to bring in the Spring season. Like I said……

Strawberry Basil Donuts
Do y’all ever find yourselves just kinda zoned out, thinking about donuts during a layover in a stuffy airport? I thought so. — I found myself doing exact that when I was on my way back home from a quick trip to Seattle a couple weeks ago. I think I ended up with a list…
Strawberry Almond Dutch Baby
A pancake, a crêpe, and a hot skillet walk into a bar…. I spotted the trio, and ate them all. *dances* — But, seriouly. A Dutch baby is a beautiful thing. That’s saying something, since most all babies aren’t really much to look at. This is the fat baby with sugar all over its face…
Strawberry BOURBON Lemonade
As you all know– bourbon is to Southerners, as coffee is to everyone else. People drink this stuff like it’s ice cold lemonade on a hot summer day.

Berry Crumble Bars
Diets are totally overrated, y’all. It’s summer. Time for me to get that bikini body back, ya know? Well…. about that. I’m a strong believer that balance is what makes success.

Strawberry Almond Turnovers
Since I knooow you subscribe to the blog updates, you will remember my obsession with fresh, local strawberries that I had at the beginning of this summer. I would have thrown a tent up and picked every last one if I had been given the opportunity [noted for next year]. Having a ton…
4th of Wine Sangria
It wouldn’t be a 4th of July cookout without a fresh fruit sangria! A simple, slightly sweet drink (…or pitcher) is the perfect way to cool off when you are outside celebrating with friends and family. For this recipe, we will turn a classic, crispy white wine into a refreshing white wine fruit sangria….
Strawberry Cinnamon Chip Scones
If there is a single most amazing perfect breakfast treat, it’s a scone. Not too sweet, not too boring. It’s just right. You can put just about anything in a scone and it will be delicious. After picking some local strawberries recently, I decided to toss them into some dough and make what would…
Banana Split Cupcakes + Crankin’ Ice Cream Social
Growing up going to church ice cream socials a couple times a year was so tough… Gallons on gallons of homemade ice cream, tables lined with fruit and candy toppings, endless jars of sprinkles. Basically a sweet train ride straight to diabetes. It was perfect. We throw those memories into a Banana Split…
