So last week I gave you a little talk about real talk. Basically, I don’t want to be a confectioners-sugar-dusted-phoney. That’s why I’ve decided to get crazy with some real-life confessions on here. Confessions. That’s a scary word. So here it goes, here’s my first confession. I like reading Craigslist Personal Ads. Disclaimer: I would […]
Did I catch your attention? Good.This is a sinfully decadent, sinfully easy dessert with a sinfully rewarding response. It’s not the daintiest, nor the prettiest. As a matter of fact, it’s basically a hot mess in a pan. But you know what? Despite it’s frightening appearance, people just can’t keep their hands off of it.I […]
