This past weekend, I helped throw my best friend a baby shower. When I was trying to figure out what to make, I came across this recipe for Peppermint Bark Cheesecake and thought it sounded phenomenal!

I did actually try to make it into mini cheesecakes too, but I … Read More

I've been searching for some new side dish recipes to try as possibilities for Thanksgiving. I wanted to do something non-traditional so I thought I would make something with butternut squash. It's sweet potato cousin gets lots of attention at Thanksgiving, but the butternut squash gets neglected a little bit. This squash gratin was savory and the onion added such nice crunch and flavor.
