An Uninvited Guest

I didn't have time to make treats for @jombiejack's birthday, so I put together a "charcookerie" board with goodies from @traderjoes instead. I'm now obsessed with their brookies (seen at the very top): soft brownie and cookie bars that taste like Ben & Jerry's Half-Baked without the ice cream.

It's Fall, y'all.

Find yourself a bride who will pick out a lush velvet dress for you to wear and wine and dine you in Roche Harbor. Congratulations to @redkoala_cosplay, the most beautiful siren bride, and @gabe.conroy, her very lucky groom.

The Sunday scaries are real–what do you do to stay in the moment and focused on the now when you have a busy week of work ahead? Asking for a friend. #imthefriend

Dear Evan Hansen, today is going to be a good day because I'm going to make the Ala Mode Sundae from Break an Egg! And also your movie comes out. (But seriously, this brown sugar and cinnamon swirl ice cream with stewed apples, whipped cream, and peanuts will improve anyone's day.)

You know you're a millennial when…

Couldn't resist a pic when I found wings that were @geekyhostess pink!

Had an amazing time at @redkoala_cosplay's 70's themed bachelorette party! Boating, the Beatles suite at @theedgewater and a photo shoot at @seattleselfiemuseum that I'll be milking for many IG posts to come. 😉 Can't wait for this lady's wedding!

"Snack time for mom."

This is my absolute favorite cookie recipe, and I started making them with an extra big cookie scoop to make them feel even more straight-from-the-bakery. Look up "the best salted dark chocolate chip cookies" on geekyhostess.com for the recipe. if you go extra big with your scoop, you'll want to bake them for about 15 minutes. They'll be crispy on the edges and still soft and gooey in the middle. As the best cookies should be. 🤤
