    Hi guys! I made some yummy chocolate-covered pretzels today and I wanted to share. They are easy and fast, and the recipe makes a small batch for portion control so you don’t have to spend an hour dipping individual pretzels into melted chocolate! 🙂 I’m not about to pretend that these pretzels are an original…

    Hi guys! I thought I’d drop in and show you the lovely pumpkin bread that I baked today. It’s from the Chocolate Covered Katie Cookbook (which, by the way, I love) and turned out really nicely.

    My dad really enjoys his kale (hi, Dad!). He likes to eat in in salads, stir-fries, and pasta dishes, and when he made this beauty a few weeks ago, I had to take a picture to share it with you! And guess what? This is the first time kale has been featured on The Kale…

    Today was another beautiful day in Escanaba! Sunny, on the cool side of warm (hey, you take what you can get in the U. P.) and breezy. I needed some fresh air time, so I went on a brisk bike ride down by the lake. I love being on the water, and I always have……
