Make Homemade Lip Balm & Gingersnaps
This holiday season, I decided to make homemade lip balm & gingersnaps as part of my presents for my friends and family.
For the lip balm, I found this super easy recipe using only real food ingredients and Rene created some super cute labels for them.
As for the gingersnaps, I never liked them till I…
Admit to a Kitchen Blunder and ER Visit
(NOTE: If you get squeamish about injuries, please stop reading. It’s really not a hugely bad injury and there won’t be anything graphic about it here, but if stuff like this puts you off, you best stop reading now!) Just earlier this week, I was excited to use the new mandoline that Rene and I…

Accept That My Boyfriend is Simply Happier When the A/C is On Full Blast
