Homemade Bagels

Last week I had some time to experiment with a new recipe.

A baking blogger that I follow, posted a colorful bagel recipe. I figured with Valentine’s Day around the corner I’d experiment with holiday colors.

This was my first time making any kind of bread from scratch and well, let me just tell you… I’m hooked! 

There will definitely be more scratch-made bagels in my future…

Black Bottom Cupcakes

Since one of my favorite holiday traditions is baking. I thought I would share one of my favorite treats, Black Bottom Cupcakes. A chocolate cupcake with a cream cheese & chocolate chip drop. 

*Bonus* – – Another favorite thing, especially when I make these cupcakes, is this handy gadget, a batter dispenser. It really helps with getting the batter in the little cupcake holes and not all over the pan.

The One Thing by Gary Keller with Jay Papasan

This is one of the many books I’ve been recommended as I’ve embarked on my journey as a virtual assistant. If you are struggling to get your goals accomplished, I highly recommend ordering a copy of this book! I started this book and ended up reading a chapter a day. I’m planning to pick it back up again to read a second time because there are just so many good nuggets in there. I know I did not grasp it all the first time around.

If you are interested in ordering a copy click the affiliate link HERE to order, then send me a message and let me know what you think. I’d love to discuss it with you!
