We all know about raspberry lemonaid...now who’s ready for raspberry limeade?? This combo was suggested to me by one of my followers on Instagram. I’m so glad she did...because these scones are THE BOMB! So good, my great grandmother (the very baking inspiration) who doesn’t eat many sweets ate them and raved to my mother … Continue reading Raspberry Limeade Scones
Cue typical food blogger rant. Growing up with the last name “Brown” was difficult for me. To kids, it can be compared to some pretty gross things, but I won’t go into detail here. For one, I find it to be the most boring name ever. I always loved my first and middle names, McKayla … Continue reading Fudgy Brownies
It’s now officially summer. And yes, I realize I keep saying this. Being 85°F and up for most of the day, I’m forced to bake late in the afternoon and/or into the night. Something about having the oven on during the heat of day is so unappealing. And with my house lacking central air cooling, … Continue reading Blueberry Muffins & Lemony Glaze

Thank you for the support and love you’ve shown; it means so much to have the foodie community behind me! Thank you for your continued … Continue reading Chocolate Mint Cupcakes
Are you a breakfast-for-dinner person? I sure am! I’m always down for breakfast foods after the end of designated “breakfast time”. I don’t know what it is. Eggs just taste so much better after 3 pm! At midnight, pancakes are the best thing in the world. And bacon? Well, lets be honest. Bacon is the … Continue reading Savory Rosemary Scones
When life gives you lemons, make lemon curd. Okay so that’s not how the saying goes, but I think it should. Lemon curd is much more versatile than lemonade. It’s a spread, it’s a filling, it’s a topping- it’s a dessert in and of itself! I feel like that illustrates life better- any person can … Continue reading Lemon Curd
I think we can tell a lot about a person based on what cake flavor they choose. No, really. I’m not talking about some Buzzfeed quiz you take when you should be studying (although this one is fairly accurate...and this one...and this one...and I spent an entire hour while writing this getting sidetracked by Buzzfeed). … Continue reading Classic White Cake
What is your favorite cupcake? I’d genuinely love to know. Chocolate is a definite contender for me, maybe beaten only by a fluffy apple spice cupcake (recipe coming!). Another question. How many of you are baking during this quarantine? I’d love to know how every is spending their “vacation” time, baking or not! What is … Continue reading Chocoholic Cupcakes with Nutella Ganache
Royal icing. Gingerbread house glue. Flooding. Piping. These are all terms that are closely associated with sugar cookies. For me, sugar cookies are closely associated with childhood. Growing up, my sisters and I would visit my aunt and uncle often. My aunt would always get us these decorated sugar cookies from their local breakast place. … Continue reading Easy Icing
