There is this dinner and a movie theater we get to go to sometimes and they have the most amazing cookies! It is something my family looks forward to when we get to go there.

For our blogger recipe challenge this month was cookies, but there can be no overlapping of recipes.

This is a Crohn's Read More... [Continue Reading]

My favorite cookie as a child was M&M Cookies. I remember when I was a child they used to give us a free cookie from the bakery inside the grocery store and every time I would choose the M&M cookie.

Such an easy recipe to make and a great way to put a smile on someone's face! I hope Read More... [Continue Reading]

We love eating wedding cookies, yes they are messy but are oh so good! When my husband got diagnosed with Crohn's disease he could not have these little cookies anymore because they had pecans in them. So, I set out to make some for him without having any kind of nuts in them, instead I used sunflower kernels. The cookies turned out great and I really think I just might have found an alternative to using nuts in my recipes! I wasn't sure at first about using sunflower kernels, but now I can't Read More...
