Sweet Intentions

   Let's be real, I am terrible at computers. Seriously, worse than your Grandma. However, my intense love for sweets has me using my iPad all the time. You know, for the important things, like Pinterest. I love finding new ways to explore my intense love affair with all things sweet. If there were a 12 step program for me I would say "My name is Jessica, and I am a sweetoholic."  I love candy the most. Tragically after having my first of three curly girly daughters, I became freakishly allergic to chocolate.  Oy! Why did this happen to me? After my second curly girly was born, I became freakishly allergic to coconut. And yes, after the third curly girly arrived I had a new freakish allergy. This time it was to Red 40, the food dye in things like licorice. So unfair I tell you!!

I so love to bake things with chocolate because I know I won't eat it. I have this love/hate relationship with recipes. Recipes hate me because I love to improvise and probably shouldn't. I constantly have recipe disasters that turn into a gift for my brother who will eat anything, like Mikey. I haven't poisoned him yet so we're all good.


I enjoy the gift giving process of baking and sweets related crafty things just as much as actually tasting them myself.  I love the colors and excitement I see in the packaging.  There is no known holiday known to me that I wouldn't give a sweet gift. I look for reasons to give sweet gifts. 


I am glad you are here to join me in my sweet cravings. Be they baking, gifting, candy making, candy crafting, or just trying to raise a couple curly girlies to be sweetie's.  


With all of your days, may they be filled WITH SWEET INTENTIONS...
