These Pumpkin Chocolate Cheesecake bars are perfect for fall, blending the taste of pumpkin cheesecake with a sour cream topping and a decadent layer of chocolate!
If you’ve been around here for awhile, then you know I love fall. And pumpkin. Like pumpkin anything.
Do you love summer as much as I do? I’m looking forward to the start of some entertaining, and this cocktail is the perfect summer cocktail. This Basil Vodka Gimlet is literally summer-in-a-glass!
Has summer arrived where you are?! ‘Cause it’s certainly arrived here! For the last few days we’ve been in the 90°s, which in June is actually unseasonably warm here. If you’re not familiar with California weather, we have what’s known as ‘June Gloom’ for most of the month. Super cool temps, with gray skies and even misty mornings.
While I absolutely love this lemon pound cake, it seems especially appropriate for where we are right now.
It’s easy. You most likely have every ingredient in your pantry. And if you’re like me and have some lemon trees dropping lemons like crazy, it’s a super tasty way of using them up 😉
When I was a kid, I never really understood why my parents and the other adults in my life loved summer so much. I mean, I loved summer because there was no school (clearly the best thing ever!) But why did they like it, when they still had to go to work? And now that I’m an adult, I think I know. Alcohol.
I love to bake, however, I don’t do it nearly often enough. Somehow days get away from me, or I don’t have any butter at room temp, or am missing an ingredient, or simply because I can’t always seem to fit it in.
However, the first few days of this week I did quite a bit of baking. Probably because I was about to start what would be 11 straight days of work and when I’m gone, I like my kids to have a little something warm, and cozy, and homemade to remind them of me. So this week, I baked.
I love homemade ice cream! Ever since I got an ice cream machine a few years ago, I have been a convert. There is truly nothing like it. It is so different than anything you can buy in a store, and with an ice cream machine, it’s so easy to make!
