Ok, these brownies are AMAZING. My mother introduced me to dark chocolate brownies with peanut butter cups, I have no idea how she came up with the idea, but they’ve become a family favorite. Dark chocolate brownies are stupidly easy to make and the end result is to die for. Shawn fondly refers to these little…
Bacon brussel sprouts—yeah I love ’em. Let’s be real, vegetables don’t always have to be the worst thing on your plate. If you or someone you love suffers from an irrational fear of vegetables, then there may be help. Do you often ask yourself, “what is this green stuff?” or “why are these on my plate?” I’ll admit…

End of discussion 😉 A simple drink consisting of equal parts gin, green chartreuse (not to be confused with yellow chartreuse), maraschino liqueur, and fresh lime juice.
