A Healthy Cake For Helen’s 2nd Birthday (Coconut Flour, Paleo Friendly, Gluten Free)

Cinnamon Roll Cake with Maple Cream Cheese Frosting
This was originally published on August 1st, 2011 on Cooking for Seven. Some days, you just need a recipe that doesn’t call for fancy ingredients.

Chocolate Layer Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting

Rhubarb Crunch + Being an Aunt
This was originally posted on May 7, 2012 on Cooking for Seven. I wrote about my experience when I took care of my sister’s kids when she had her third baby. Less than a year later I was a mom myself. It’s a bit strange to remember when I didn’t have a little person to…
