Cookie It Up – White Chocolate Cranberry Shorts

Cookie It Up – White Chocolate Cranberry Shorts

I couldn’t tell you why, but I’ve never really enjoyed butter cookies. In our household Walker’s was the poison of choice when it came to those buttery, fat inducing shortbread. They smelled good, and on…

Woodbridge Snacks – Sticky Rice Chips Garlic and Pepper

Woodbridge Snacks – Sticky Rice Chips Garlic and Pepper

Toppo – Vanilla Milkshake

Toppo – Vanilla Milkshake

When you think vanilla milkshake? What comes to mind? For me it’s 60s or 70s style diners and malted milkshakes. I’m sure it was a magical time, you know, apart from all the racism, impending…

Hi-Chew Mix – Snoopy Edition

Hi-Chew Mix – Snoopy Edition

Green & Black’s – Organic Dark Chocolate 70%

Green & Black’s – Organic Dark Chocolate 70%
