Cinnamon-Banana-Blueberry Bread
Last weekend, I decided to make another forray into the world of berry-picking. Earlier this summer, a new friend named So posted on a Facebook group about whether or not people would want to go to 3-Birds Berry Farm and go picking with her. I had never been berry-picking, ever before, so of course I …

Chocolate Butterscotch Cupcakes and Butterscotch Buttercream Frosting
Well obviously to go along with the Homemade Chicken Curry recipe that Kristin created, we had to have dessert! This recipe was inspired by something I saw over Winter Break, and honestly – I can’t really remember where it was. BUT I do use an app called GoTasks to keep track of my day to …
