I ate the cookies too fast to even photograph them.
Let me explain: I’m out at a food blogger happy hour at parkside (delish) and I meet this super-stylish girl named Alexandra. Turns out she owns the cookie company I’ve heard great things about but never really understood: Alexandra’s Cookie Dreams. The confusing part is that [...]

A few thoughts on Valentine’s Day
I love Valentine’s Day. I’m the girl who makes something for all her friends to show them how much she loves them and because she doesn’t want them to feel left out on such a lovey holiday (also, usually single). But I like that more than the stereotypical romantical Valentine’s Day–could have to do with [...]

Cookie Lounge – Hello Candied Serrano Pepper
Candied serrano peppers.
Sure, the dough is good, the customizing thing is good, the choices are good … yeah, Cookie Lounge is good. But the candied serrano peppers make the place great. They make your cookie fantastic.
I had the gluten-free dough, which is made with amaranth–an ancient grain that’s so super good for you. It’s high [...]

From Ultra Lounge to Cookie Lounge

Here’s the main draw: customers choose from six cookie [...]

Sugar Mama’s Bakeshop
Mmmmm more cupcakes. I know I’ve blogged about quite a few cupcake places, and my reviews are usually pretty good. I mean, it’s pretty hard to screw up a cupcake. (Well, that’s not really true, because Hey! Cupcake figured out how pretty easily) But after all the buzz Sugar Mama’s Bakeshop has been getting, in [...]

Another Thursday, Another Plethora of Events
Good thing I have that fence to paint (it’s never done. You finish building the sucker and you just have to paint it) or I’d never be able to decide which of these events to go to! That and I’d go to the LAST Nike training run at SIX lounge before the big run this [...]

Polkadots Cupcake Factory
When I heard about this company called Polkadots Cupcake Factory suddenly sponsoring all these happy hour-type events, I had to see what the deal was. Plus, the cupcake trend has gotten so out of hand, and these places are cropping up everywhere.
A friend and I split two cupcakes: the cookie dough, and the chocolate peanut [...]

Tiff’s Treats to Open a North Location
Tiff’s Treats is a local legend among college students, famous for their deliveries of hot, fresh cookies. I had a friend whose date sent her a box a few hours before their date one time …. precious. Anyway, I’ve only had them once and thought they were good enough, but not just to-die-for like everyone [...]
