Happy Valentine's Day! This Valentine's Day Tablescape 2025 is a setting for two!

I hope you enjoyed my Valentine's Series I posted this week...Banana Strawberry Heart and Bark Dog Treats, Fried Ice Cream, White Chocolate Sarris Chocolate Martini With Tito's Vodka I had one large dinner plate, a salad plate, and a bowl. Mr. TAL got the dinner plate, I got...
Fried Ice Cream
Happy Valentine's Day! This Fried Ice Cream is the perfect dessert for this special day! Made with Tillamook French Vanilla Ice Cream, Sarris Chocolate, real whipped cream (see recipe), buttery toasted cornflakes, and a combination of cinnamon, brown sugar, and sugar! This is truly the best Fried Ice Cream I have ever tasted in my life! I came up with this on my own and would love to hear what you think if you make this recipe! Enjoy! I bought these adorable crystal ice cream sundae...
White Chocolate Sarris Chocolate Martini With Tito’s Vodka
Happy Valentine's Day!! If you are into Martinis, you will love this White Chocolate Sarris Chocolate Martini that Mr. TAL and I made a few weeks ago. It's smooth, rich, and chocolatey. I have to be totally honest with you...Mr. TAL thought it was delicious and I thought it was ok. So, I'm posting based on Mr. TAL's review of this recipe. I found it on Jena Howard.com and then changed it slightly. I was going to keep her martini name but changed it because I didn't use one Snicker's bar...

Adrenal Disease In Dogs
Happy Wednesday, everyone! Today, we are talking about Adrenal Disease In Dogs. I can speak firsthand on this because we just found out Maggie, after many tests, has bilateral tumors on her adrenal gland that indicate a possible benign growth. She may also have Cushing's Disease, which I’ll explain below. First, I would like to send out love and prayers to those affected by the plane crashes in Philadelphia and DC—our condolences to those lost and to the families who are suffering. We...
Happy New Year + Fun In Pittsburgh, PA
Happy New Year everyone! Are you excited and looking forward to what the year will bring? Did you make any resolutions? I did! I do every year. Some I keep and some I don’t, but I’m excited to learn more about manifestation and manifesting what I want in both business and personal life. I started writing down a positive quote every morning last year, and you know what….it helped me. I make myself and Mr. TAL a pot of coffee every morning and while the dogs are eating their breakfast and...
Dad’s Sugar Cookies
Happy Thursday everyone! Growing up, my Dad’s Sugar Cookies were a family favorite around the holidays. When my sister and I were young, my parents would make this sugar cookie recipe with us every Christmas. I can still remember my dad standing at the table mixing up the colored icing for us to ice the cookies. We grew up in a 100-year-old farmhouse that my parents renovated throughout the years. Our kitchen was stylish and cozy, and we would sit around our big round farmhouse table...
Pet Products And Stocking Stuffers For Your Pet
Happy Friday everyone! Today, we are talking about Busy Blankets! Every so often, I post about pet products I’ve tried and loved. The Busy Blanket by The Peppy Pup turns playtime into a scent-seeking mission that keeps your pup busy up to five times longer than other snuffle mats. When Sheena Larson, owner of The Peppy Pup, (Instagram @thepeppypup1) contacted me about collaborating, I was excited to try her product. Jake and Maggie have used snuffle mats before, but this seemed to...

Happy Wednesday everyone! This colorful, healthy, delicious Butternut Squash Orzo Spinach Salad With Candied Bacon and a sprinkle of fresh feta cheese is a fall party favorite. But honestly, you can enjoy this salad all year long! I first saw this on Half Baked Harvest but you know me…I made some changes to the recipe and here we are! It’s one of Mr. TAL’s favorites. I always ask him if a recipe is blog-worthy or cookbook-worthy and he said both! So you might just see this again :-)....
