Gmail cookies

Aka – Pineapple, ginger, coconut rum cookies So I’ve done Outlook and Yahoo (which is going to get an update in about 8 weeks when my homemade blueberry extract is ready). So it’s on to the Gmail cookie! Gmail is mostly fine to code for. There are a couple of quirks to watch out for,

Outlook cookies

Aka – Chocolate coffee cookies with royal icing So, awhile ago I declared my intention on twitter to create email cookies. I’ve been messing around with several recipes and I figured the Outlook cookies out awhile ago, but am finally getting around to sharing them here. The idea for these Outlook cookies came from my

Never After: The Thirteenth Fairy & Reflection

With the library re-opening I’ve been finding lots of books to read, but as we can’t let the children take off and find books by themselves any more, I’ve been delving into a lot of middle grade books. It’s either that or picture books and, while picture books are great for bed time for the

Chex Mix… but better

Warning: I like to ramble and enjoy a good side story. It will happen throughout this blog post and the recipe. You’ve been warned. Ok, so my mom passed away 18 years ago. Which seems like a weird place to start a blog post about Chex Mix, but here we are. My friend’s mom felt

Starting out

So I’m not the best at blogging, but I’m really good at rambling. I also bake. And code. And do science experiments with my kids. And sew. And read. And play board games. So this is a place for me to talk about all of that good stuff. If I get rambly, you can bear
