You’ve probably already guessed that I am a chocoholic. It’s like my DNA is a chocolate addict. I crave it every single day. Have to have it. You can satisfy your craving with just one square of dark ice cream or even a black bean brownie. But some days, I need a decadent brownie. The brownies only

You haven’t really lived if you haven’t visited Billy’s website. We can’t be friends unless you go and check it out right now. I’ll wait… Billy has asked the food blogging community to post their latest and best popsicle recipe on the Internet this week. There’s no reason not to have a delicious popsicle by

These little guys were a no-brainer. I love ice cream sandwiches and always have. Ask anyone who saw me as a child with a constant ring of ice cream around my mouth. Anytime I have ice cream in the house and anything half resembling a cookie, I mash them together. Don’t ask. Because my brownies

This recipe is made with coconut cream, sugar vanilla, cocoa, sugar, and salt. In a fit for boozy glory, you then add two shots of Kahlua — the ultimate coffee-flavored liquor. You don’t need me to tell you chocolate and coffee go together, but I will. 1. Open your coconut milk can and remove the

Two years ago, I had a favorite fall memory. John was in law school at the time, and we went to church in Lawrence with friends. It was a city that became our literal oasis during our two-year stay at the State Capitol. The first time we had a significant chill was on this day.

I used to wear a bow tie at work. It’s true. It’s true. In my senior year of high school, I worked at a restaurant inside a cinema. The job required me to wear a purple apron, a white button-up shirt with visible creases, and a bow tie. Like all managers who are underpaid and
