Leftover pad thai while dining at my desk on an overcast rainy day becomes so much more cheery with my new flamingo lunch bag courtesy of Violet Cottage. 💖

Loving my sweet, delicate wrap bracelet from Violet Cottage's boutique at Inspirations Home Decor and More. Great place to shop while sipping vino!

Love using my vintage kitchenware! Reminds me of grandma. ♡

Almond Joy inspired coconut cupcakes makes a rainy day brunch with friends extra fabulous!

My last food post for today. Had so much fun with friends tonight and want everyone to know about this deliciousness! I already posted a few desserts and an amazing peach app, now onto dessert liqueurs. Asked the group who wanted coffee and no one was really interested...until I mentioned having Baileys and Kahlua. Then I had lots of takers! Turns out the favorite liqueur of the night was Amarula from Capetown. The label says it's made from marula fruit. A friend said she thought it tasted like chocolate milk. :)

Love peaches and a little heat? This bruschetta with peach salsa and melted brie is an amazing, flavorful, easy and impressive app to whip together. Didn't grab a pic before everyone dove in. Glad I have a little bit leftover for tomorrow! Peaches, fresh cilantro and lime with a dash of red pepper really wows.

I'm not sharing my leftovers. :) Thanks Cooking Light magazine!

For the past (almost) 6 years, I play cards with a great group of women each month. We take turns hosting so when my month rolls around, I scroll through online recipes for easy, impressive items. Happy that I came across these Boston Cream Bites from Betty Crocker. Everyone loved them & asked for the recipe. Too good to keep it to myself. Thanks Betty!

Recipe link in the comments. The only edit was halving the heavy cream for the frosting based off the recipe's comments.

Made these incredible chocolate chip brownie swirled with cheesecake bites tonight & they were a big hit for a little bite! These are now part of my rotation since they take about the same amount of time as regular brownies, but with the added fabulousness of cheesecake!

Recipe link in the comments. Thanks Domesticate Me! Can't wait to see what else your site has in store for me. :)

Haven't posted as LollipopSailor in a while. Thought I would start again with this yummy apple berry pie I made that just came out of the oven. Smells divine! Happy 4th of July weekend!

Felted hand-stitched coffee sleeves, tea cup soy candles in soft vanilla and beachy driftwood. Thanks for your order, Marlene!

These scrumptious sounding apple raisin cobblestone muffins from Shugary Sweets popped into my news feed and I just had to make them! Here's the recipe: http://www.shugarysweets.com/2012/02/apple-raisin-cobblestone-muffins

I am cutting the recipe in half since I have regular sized muffin tins. Pics to follow. :)
