Red Velvet Cupcakes
I have officially become domesticated. There have been little signs along the way that this transition was taking place, but I believe it is now official. When I bought my first hostess apron from Etsy, that was a sign. When Fly Lady and Recipezaar took over Entertainment websites on my list of favorites, that was…

This Fiesta Chicken Pasta from Kraft is a great, easy weeknight meal. For so many people, cooking dinner is just another chore added to their long list of to-do’s during the day.

Power of Suggestion
I am a marketers dream. I am the target audience that marketers go after when they are trying to entice customers merely by the power of suggestion.
