How was your Valentine's Day?

A day to celebrate love. A love for your family and friends, not just your significant other. How did you spend your Valentine's? Out with the girls, dinner with your family, or snuggled up with your puppy? There is no right way to celebrate this day of love as long as you are celebrating and not feeling remorse or sadness. There is no reason to feel sad on the day of love. On this one day, at least find a reason to celebrate even if you spend the remaining 364 days of the year feeling sad, on this day, you find what you love and celebrate it!

Now I don't know how true this is, but it has definitely been circulating around my office for a month or so now.  Ev...

Failed Toffee Making = Toffee Cookies

Have you ever made homemade toffee ? Well I recently attempted to make homemade toffee and it was semi unsuccessful the first round with my toffee separating from the butter creating an extra greasy layer around my toffee. However, the toffee itself was very good. So I managed to clean up most of the excess butter and chopped the toffee to be used in my favorite chocolate chip recipe, and so we have toffee chip cookies!
