Easy as Pie

I'm so excited to be guest posting over at Camile's blog: Make it Work Mom! January is a difficult month-not only are you coming off a high from Christmas, but you are making new and consequently trying to stick to New Year's resolutions (which I'm totally against btw). You've got to work off those extra pounds, you've got bills to pay, you've got some sort of lag from traveling, you are still reeling from all the family drama, and Valentine's Day is looming ahead. You are stuck between the proverbial rock and a hard place.


(Notice I didn't mention it's also cold, dark, and wet. I love the cold; you get to wear adorable coats and cute matching accessories. I love the dark; perfect for snuggling. And I love the wet; it's my Oregonian background, it's cleansing, magnificent, and promising.)

All month long Camille has been sharing ideas to brighten your day... and in Camille's words: "We all know that sugar brightens anyone's day!"

This is a fun recipe because you don't have to exert much effort for it, yet you still receive just as much reward from it... and with the right decoration, this is an excellent Valentine's Day treat-even for someone who wants to impress but isn't kitchen inclined!
