Lemon Coconut Cream Stack Cake

July 17, 2013 by Melissa

What flavors make you think of summer? From berries to grilled food, summer has the best flavors, right? But nothing is more summery than coconut. And lemon. For a really simple yet impressive summer dessert, you have to make my Lemon Coconut Cream Stack Cake. I made another stack cake not that long ago, and it inspired me to make this one! Please jump over to the new KitchenAid blog, … [Read more...]

Rhubarb Cake

July 15, 2013 by Melissa

I know rhubarb season is almost over, but I have a desperate plea for you. Please go out and buy some! Or pick some from your garden (you seriously have a rhubarb garden, just like my grandma?!)! And then make this cake. It’s seriously the definition of comfort food. It reminds me of summer, makes your kitchen smell of sweet, warm cinnamon, and is perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice … [Read more...]

Cranberry-Orange Oat Muffins

July 10, 2013 by Melissa

While I was visiting my grandma last week, she pulled out a few recipes she wanted us to make so I could try them. This one was really delicious and filled the house with the most warm and comforting aroma. Now, I know its not fall. Or Christmas-time. Yet. But hear me out! This Cranberry-Orange Oat Muffin is an anytime-muffin! It’s not loaded down with spicy flavors like nutmeg, ginger, … [Read more...]

Denver Bridal Shower

July 8, 2013 by Melissa

As you found out on Friday, I was in Denver, CO for the week. I traveled around with my mom and grandparents, eating, chatting, and just enjoying our time together. Although there were many reasons we were visiting, one of the main reasons was for my Bridal Shower!! Here are a few photos of the decor from the day so you can pretend you were there too.   When I walked in, I was … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 33

Hey there! I hope everybody had a wonderful Fourth of July, filled with cherries berries, and lots of pie. That's all you can hope for, right? My mom and I are in Denver, CO right now, visiting grandparents, extended family and old friends. My dear friend (bridesmaid in my wedding) and grandmother are throwing a bridal shower for me here tomorrow and I'm so excited! From the moment … [Read more...]

Peanut Butter Hot Fudge Pie

July 1, 2013 by Melissa

I made you a pie! And if we lived closer together, I'd totally hand-deliver it. It's in my new pie dish (thank you to whomever thought of wedding registries!). So I'll totally tell you to enjoy it and return the dish whenever is convenient for you. Which, as we all know (or suspected), means washed and water-stain-free by the end of the week. This pie is super easy. And your super … [Read more...]

A-Z About Me: A Blogging Throwback Survey

June 28, 2013 by Melissa

First of all, don’t forget, Google Reader is going bye-bye! Please subscribe to my blog via email or feedburner (on the sidebar!) or transfer to Feedly or Bloglovin. I’m going to switch to Feedly, but I’ve heard great things about Bloglovin too (and I’ve used it in the past).   Second, my friend Linz tagged me to complete an old-school blog survey! It’s kind of an “about me” from A-Z, … [Read more...]

Wedding Catering and my Iranian Feast

June 27, 2013 by Melissa

So I know I haven't updated anybody on my wedding plans since the Save The Dates. But, it's really hard to talk about updates because plans change SO much! It's crazy how many things can feel final, and then they change a second later. Plus, it's hard to post pictures of things like "I found my DJ" and "I decided what to make for favors." Ok, the favor thing can totally have a post of its own, … [Read more...]

Peanut Butter Iced Latte

June 25, 2013 by Melissa

I’ve watched “When Harry Met Sally” five times in the last week. No shame. It’s been on TV. And I have a need to turn it on every time I see it in the Guide. Yes, I own the DVD. But it’s so much easier to have the TV gods choose it for me. I love it. I’ve always thought I was way too much like Sally. But I really like that. “On the side” is a big one for me too. Shouldn’t you be … [Read more...]
