Field Goal Cookies
I don’t know about you, but I love football. And with football season always comes a great excuse to gather with friends and family and have a festive party! I decided to throw a big Super Bowl party this year, and manifest some of the crafty ideas that had been floating around in my head (and on my Pinterest boards!). One of the things that I really wanted to try and make were these “field goal” cookies. They looked super cute, and easy enough to make… and they were! Here’s how you can make some yourself: Field Goal Cookies Supplies Needed: -Sugar cookies (I purchased a package of pre-made ones…

Homemade Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip “Larabars”
Mmm…. Larabars. Made of only a few simple, (mostly) healthy ingredients, they’re a better alternative to stuffing your face with junky candy bars. Larabars satisfy that craving for something sweet, gooey, delicious, and in this case, chocolatey, without leaving you with feelings of guilt, shame, or remorse. You know you’re getting real food, without all the extra unnecessary additives and processed crap. However, one thing Larabars are not is cheap. You usually pay around $5 for a box of only 5 small bars. Which means, if you’re a real sucker for the things like many of us are, or you have an entire family who loves them, that box will…
