July 2015 Cookbook Club Wrap-Up
Well, this book is ridiculously fun. Sprinkles! is bright, colorful, and it feels like you’re at a party just going through it! But my fave party? The recipes varied from ridiculously easy (like the dipped waffle cones) to more complicated/time consuming (like the banana split trifle cake). They even […]
How To Make Patissez’s Nutella and Salted Pretzel Freakshow Shake
Patissez, a small bakery in Canberra, has created a monster. They’ve created and sell “Freakshows,” gigantic milkshakes topped with baked goods and spilling over with decadent ingredients like salted caramel, fudge, vanilla cream, and Nutella. The pictures have been everywhere the last few days, and when I first saw them, […]
You May Be at SDCC, But I’m Relaxing with Adagio Teas

GeeksGoGlam: This SDCC Party is a Must!
Are you attending SDCC? Then you’ve gotta hit up Geeks Go Glam, the party that almost had me buying a plane ticket out to San Diego. Hosted by The Nerdy Girlie and Being Geek Chic (some of my favorite geeky sites!), the party is an excuse to pack your formal dresses […]
Wed.is: A Registry by Geeks for Everyone
If you’ve recently gotten engaged, you may have started the arduous task of figuring out your wedding registries. The tough thing with most of them is that they limit you to just one store. Nathan and Kaylee weren’t loving that limitation when they got engaged, so they do what any […]
Dole Whip Cupcakes
Last weekend I volunteered for Cupcake Camp, a benefit for Relay for Life. The event brought a variety of amateur and professional bakers together to create Disney-themed cupcakes. When I first heard the theme, Dole Whip was the thing that instantly came to mind. I knew we would be outside […]
