Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cake

  I have a father, and I call him papa.

  My papa had a birthday recently, and I made sure that the Sundays with Joy schedule had this cake going the weekend of it.

Cream Cheese-Filled Pumpkin Snickerdoodles, A Guest Post, and a Giveaway!

  Some title, eh?  'Tis only natural, because this is a pretty big deal!  

  Those of you who follow my postings on facebook know that I'm participating in Bakeaholic Mama's Pumpkin Week!  Her blog has seriously been exploding with the stuff since Sunday, and my humble little cookies are polishing it all off today. 

Caramel Pumpkin Black and White Cookies

  I've got the crunch of leaves stuck in my head.  And if there was some way to combine the aromas of cinnamon and damp earth into a cookie without being totally gross...I'd do it.

  Dear autumn, I'm stuck on you.

Caramel Apple Scones

  Presidents are debating, I'm shoving a goodly amount of working hours into a week, my birthday is a little over a month away, and I really need to get my senior pictures together.

  But right now, work seems to trump everything.  Must be a thing with seasonal jobs.  I get up, do school, go to work.  I come home, eat some food, and talk about work.  I go to bed, try to fall asleep, and think about work.

  I'm definitley driving my family crazy.  I'm driving me crazy.  But what can I say?  I love my job.
