Funfetti Cookies

Once, my sister Laura and I threw a Halloween Party with the booziest sangria. We baked patriotic funfetti cupcakes in christmas liners. We assembled the worst bean dip, and had the most fun. And you see, these cookies are an edible party. They taste as good as a party is fun! Skills! These are just as easy as those patriotic cupcakes we made at Halloween with no regard. And I bet you have the ingredients in your pantry!…

Red Velvet Whoopie Pies with Cream Cheese Filling

I feel weird about singing in my car and casually looking over and seeing someone I know. It cramps my car-singing style. I feel weird about the fact that my chair at work is creaky since I’m incapable of sitting still. I can’t do it. I feel weird about my new bangs. They aren’t a big deal. I really shouldn’t care, but Jake says that things like bangs matter, so it’s ok to be complete girl about…
