My Word for 2019

January 6, 2019 by Melissa

Bullet Journaling my Word for 2019 and intentions

Happy New Year! It’s been a hot second. But since we are starting a whole new year, I wanted to share some of my goals and intentions. And this, of course, includes My Word for 2019.  First of all, I really don’t love New Years Resolutions. I think they’re uber unrealistic. Making goals for an entire year is just daunting and setting yourself up for failure. I already feel like a … [Read more...]

Chocolate Peppermint Cookie Truffles

December 4, 2018 by Melissa

Chocolate Peppermint Cookie Truffles // gluten-free // treatswithatwist.com

It’s Gluten Free Christmas Cookie Week!! Because I said so. And we are kicking off today with Chocolate Peppermint Cookie Truffles. These are a way better spin on the classic Oreo ball. This recipe is small-batch, hinted with peppermint, gluten-free and much less sweet than the originals.  In the spirit of attempting a sugar coma before Christmas, I’m sharing a different Christmas … [Read more...]

For our next Holiday Gift Guide, let’s talk KITCHEN stuff! This one is my Holiday Gift Guide for the Healthy Cook, but it’s really for any foodie…or wannabe foodie…or your poor little brother who can’t cook to save his life (I swear I’m not talking about MY little brother…).

Holiday Gift Guide for Toddlers and Kids

Holiday Gift Guide for Toddlers and Kids

It’s that time of year again! GIFT GUIDE time! I'm starting off this year's guides with a fun one: Holiday Gift Guide for Toddlers and Kids! If you read my gift guide for toddlers from last year, you’ll notice this one is very similar. Reason being, kids don’t change a TON in a year, and even though I have two now, we still parent the same way and still prefer the same types of toys. So, … [Read more...]

Persian Almond Rose Cake

October 16, 2018 by Melissa

Persian Almond Rose Cake // gluten free // treatswithatwist.com

Persian Almond Rose Cake is one of those cakes you’ll love even if you typically only eat cake for the frosting. Trust me, I get it, I’m a frosting shots girl. Cake is usually that thing that’s holding the frosting up off the plate. But this cake is more of a snacking situation. A delicate bite you wash down with tea. It’s basically a sandwich…don’t quote me on that. With delicate flavors of … [Read more...]
