4 Desserts So Good You'll Want to Skip Dinner
|
Hi friends! 👋 This weekend we celebrated my daughter’s birthday with 13 girls at our house! It was loud and giggly and so much fun. I made a Wicked cake for the party and it was a total hit. Seeing her face light up when she saw it made every minute in the kitchen worth it! All that cake had me thinking about dessert, which works out perfectly because National Dessert Day is this Wednesday. So I pulled together four of my favorites to help you celebrate. Here’s what I picked: 🥤 Dr Pepper Cake 🍫 Butterscotch Brownies 🥧 Black Bottom Pie 🍮 Chocolate Mousse Before I go, I just want to say thank you. Every time you open these emails, try a recipe, or share one with a friend, it means more to me than you know. Thank you for supporting me and this little corner of the internet. I’m so grateful for each of you! Which dessert are you making first? Hit reply and let me know! Warmly, ❤️ Heidi (aka Lulu) |

Hi friends! I had the day off yesterday for Veterans Day, and it gave me some time to slow down and think about my grandma.

Hi friends! 👋 I’m so tired this morning. Last night I helped out in the green room at my daughter’s show, and wow. Costume changes, bobby pins everywhere, and a whole lot of nervous energy packed into one small room. It was chaotic and loud, and I loved every minute of it. Watching her up on that stage made it all worth it! But my feet are still recovering, so today is a coffee and pajamas kind of Sunday. It’s also a menu planning kind of Sunday. Can you believe Thanksgiving is less than...
Hi friends! It’s been a busy week at our house! My daughter has rehearsals all week for her musical, so our whole family is running on a musical theater schedule right now. I love seeing how hard she’s working, and I can’t wait to see it all come together on stage! Here’s what’s new this week: 🍎 Waldorf Salad: I found this one in my grandma’s 1940s cookbook, and I love how simple it is. It has just 5 ingredients, takes about 10 minutes, and would be perfect on your Thanksgiving table. And no,...
