Occasionally, I’m going to post some Mix and Match dinners to accompany all of the desserts. Why not? I’m making dinner every night…I might as well snap a few pictures and blog about it. This first dinner, is a staple…

First Fall Day (well…sort of)
It’s beginning to look like fall around the Shull house…here are just a few (I spared you all of them) examples. Yesterday it was rainy and cooler (like 98 as opposed to 108) and it sooooo felt like fall was…
Original Whoopie Pies
Ahhhh…the whoopie pie. The first time I had a whoopie pie was when I visited my future husband’s parents’ house for the first time. My future mother-in-law made them from scratch and they were oh so delish. I mean…two chocolate…
The Original Rachel New Bundt Cake: Chocolate Chip
Hi! I’m Shay, and I’m a foodie. It’s nothing new…I’ve been baking and cooking since the 4th grade, so that’s 20 years of being in the kitchen. I used to think desserts were only good if they came from scratch…then…

While Mommy cooks…
…Kensington sits on the kitchen counter and helps me. While Smith sits right on the kitchen rug watching Tangled on the i-Touch. Cooking dinner every night is always a family affair.
Every boy should master wearing…
…his sister’s high heels :) I call this the “Ebby Lee” face. He doesn’t do it nearly as well as her but he’s trying. Ebby Lee will make a great Miss America one day with that smile :). And here…
Rise of the Fall
It’s over. Summer is over. Yes, I know it’s 109 outside and I took my kids to the pool today, but in my heart and mind, I’ve moved on to fall. Since fall is my absolute favorite time of the…
Back in Boston
On Thursday morning, Dad and I took off for the weekend in Boston to see the Red Sox play two games. We had the BEST time. I think it was my favorite trip to Boston so far. I just LOVE…
