Blackcurrant bubble bar from Lush

Ok, so it's not food...
but it smelled absolutely delicious
and it gave me that same warm, contented feeling.

Mmmm.

Happy Birthday!




The boys made me a cake.




They spelled out "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" in sprinkles.
So sweet.

Dessert Pizza!

We started with this:
  • sweet homemade pizza dough
  • cocoa
  • chocolate syrup
  • cinnamon
  • sugar
  • honey
  • chocolate chips
  • sprinkles
  • marshmallows
And we made...


Dark chocolate cinnamon-pecan pizza with a puffy soft crust.



The kids got to make their own. Here is Lexie's:
Deep dish marshmallow-sprinkle.



And Alex's: cinnamon-sprinkle-marshmallow-chocolate chip



This was my favorite - Cinnamon-sugar sauce, vanilla glaze, dark chocolate chips on a super thin cocoa crust.



S'more pizza: crispy cinnamon crust, marshmallows, chocolate chips and chocolate sauce.



S'more pizza fresh from the oven.



Thin crust chocolate chip pecan pizza, oozing yummy honey 'sauce'.
