These Lemon Coconut Cupcakes are as tasty as they are festive! Fluffy & moist lemon cupcakes topped with the most amazing coconut whipped frosting and toasted coconut.
You guys.
Normally I'm a cake girl through-and-through. I really couldn't care less for frosting. It's usually overly sweet - sickening almost - and piled on so high that I can basically feel my teeth

No Bake Key Lime Pie Parfaits
So you guys know how much I hate House Hunters, right?
If you don't, here & here. You're welcome.
If regular ol' House Hunters wasn't enough for me to pick up a binge drinking habit, House Hunters International makes me want to dive headfirst into a shallow pool. It's my number one hate-watch show and it is always on.
First of all, they pick the most idiot couples

Double Chocolate Ganache Pie
This post is dedicated to my sweet friend, Joan Hayes, who passed away suddenly and unexpectedly last week from a heart attack.
Joan ran the blog Chocolate, Chocolate & More and she was great at what she did. Her blog is filled to the brim with delectable desserts - most of which feature chocolate - and she was so proud of that blog!
I first met Joan years ago at an

Samoas Magic Bar Pie
When I was in Girl Scouts, our troop leader totally didn't do anything cool. Other troops were raising money to go to Disneyland, or sleepovers at the zoo, or other cool things. We went camping. Once. It was lame because two girls kicked me out of their tent. We went to a safety school. We learned not to walk in front of cars. All it made me do was want to walk in front of a

{Guiltless} Key Lime Pie
Key Lime Pie fans -- or KLPF for short -- rejoice.  Y'all have a guiltless version of your favorite treat starting now.
I am a recent convert of KLP.  While it's not my favorite pie flavor, and I certainly wouldn't choose it over say, apple or coconut cream, I do like it.  I like that tangy, sour bite and the creamy texture.  And I like limes, but usually only in margaritas,

Black Forest Donut Whoopies
As some of you may know (or probably none of you know, whatever) I have been on a minor gym hiatus.  Because of the holidays, and then the days following the holidays, and the weeks after that, and oh godddd I just really didn't want to go.  So there's that.
Well, I went to Zumba yesterday and let's just say it was all kinds of awkward and gave me a disturbing revelation: I

Almond Joy Magic Pie (For Pi Day!)
I'm baaaaaaaack.
And for a good reason.
Today is Pi Day!
No, I'm not a fan of math. In fact, we are mortal enemies. I mean, I tried to befriend math. I hung out one-on-one with it, I got to know it in depth, I listened to all its complicated problems and offered it like, eleventy different solutions, but most of the time, math was a real a-hole and never liked my

Strawberry Banana Poke Cake
This Strawberry Banana Poke Cake is an easy and delicious cake featuring two delicious fruit flavors into one scrumptious cake!
Can we all just agree that strawberry banana is probably one of the best flavor combos of all time?
