Featured on Style me Pretty!!
This literally made my day! One of my best friends was married back in November, first of all I was so excited for her upcoming nuptials and to be a part of the wedding, and then to add to all that greatness she was so sweet to ask me to make desserts for the wedding. We always loved to bake together so it meant a lot to me to make treats for her wedding. Things just seem to get better and better when I hear that this wedding was featured on Style me Pretty and that Kravings got a shout out!! Amy Jo the photographer took some gorgeous photos of the wedding and these are two with my desserts in them.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
I made these back around the release of the second Hunger Games. I asked one of my friends what kind of cookies I should make for the midnight movie premier that we were going to. His reply was "Katniss Cookies." This is what I decided to make to be the Katniss Cookies.
Enjoy.
And may the odds be ever in your favor.
Mix together:
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, soft
1 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
Add:
2 eggs
2 t. vanilla
1/4 t. cinnamon
Mix in after sifting together:
2 cup all-purpose flour
1 t. baking soda
1 t. salt
Add:
3 cups oatmeal (whole oats)
1/2 to 3/4 of pkg semi-sweet chocolate chips
Optional- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
Bake 350* for 10 minutes on a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
*This is the original recipe but I added another 1/4 t. of cinnamon, 1 cup less of oats, and added both semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips.
Tell me how it goes if your try the recipe!!

More than just Cookies
So my favorite things to bake are cookies and especially sandwich cookies. Someone asks and I will whip a whoopie cookie right up. However, over Thanksgiving weekend I wanted to make something new and different than the traditional pies that are commonly eaten over Holidays. I decided to make this Pear Cranberry Slab Pie from Martha Stewart. It was delicious! I plan on saving this recipe and hopefully one day soon making it into a more individual smaller pies.

I luckily was able to share my creation with some of my family and friends, and it was a huge success. You should try it, or ask me to make it for you sometime, I don't think you'll regret it!

And of course Martha's picture of the final project, mine got eaten up before I had a chance to snap a picture.
Man I wish I had a food stylist on hand. And a ladder. And a pro photographer.

All love
I've been listening a lot to Ingrid Michaelson, all her matter of the heart songs. This one below is called All Love, the lyrics aren't anything special, but I love LOVE and this song is all love, it's all my stupid love.
When I push the sheets away
From your face and watch you sleep all day here
And when I push you away
And say you simply cannot stay here
It's all love, all love
It's all of my stupid love
When I say you take away
The most important parts of me with you
And when I've had the grayest day
You add more gray, that's just your way, it's true
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all of my stupid love
You can't be the one to kill the pain anymore
You let me in but then you slam my fingers in the door
I've had enough but I keep asking you to give me more
When I say that there's no way
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all of my stupid love
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all love, all love, oh
It's all of my stupid love
