Last Saturday my life changed. After months of hoarding Williams-Sonoma gift cards I finally had enough to buy my Vitamix. This thing is amazing. It makes delicious coffee frappes, powers through frozen fruit and...

Brownie Donut with Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting

Please don’t hate me. These “donuts” or “doughnuts” are amazing and addicting so I had to share. I also was torn on how to label the recipe. Are you a donut or doughnut kinda...

Hello 2013! I’m starting things off with a sweet bang! I know, it’s the new year. We should all be eating salad and pushing 30 days juice cleanses. However, I’m really in no mood....

A collection of Christmas photos from years past. As you can tell, I love Christmas! Also, I totally rocked that pink sweater vest. Maybe they will come back into style?

Moment of Silence

Posted By nutmegnanny on December 17, 2012

I am one of the many craft, cooking, lifestyle and DIY bloggers who had posts to share with you today, but the events of Friday's shooting in Connecticut have left us heartbroken. Like you, we cried as news reports poured in and wondered out loud about how something so cruel could hurt the most innocent and tender. We not only grieved for the lives lost and wounded, but for that part of the magic and wonder of this holiday season that was taken from us all. We know that no words, no gifts, no acts of service will ever take away the pain, but we, as bloggers and parents collectively, want those affected by this to know how close to our hearts they are: We love you. We pray for you. We're so heartbroken for your loss. To honor the memory of lives cut short, we choose to step away from our blogs and computers today to celebrate the gift of life and those we love most: our children, families, good friends and community. We're holding our kids a little closer, reaching out to neighbors and giving thanks for the moments we have together. Thank you for stopping by today. We hope you'll join us in remembering, praying, and gathering close. We wish you and your families a safe and blessed holiday

Rum Splashed Apple Cider by Nutmeg Nanny {The Twelve Boozy Days of Christmas}

Here in New York it’s not hard to find a tasty gallon of fresh pressed apple cider. I love it’s freshness and it’s a million times better tasting then apple juice…in my opinion. However,...
