Happy Valentine’s Day! Book Update: My daughter wrote a book! I have spent the last 6+ months editing the amazing novel Sea Legs. It is available on Amazon in Kindle and Paperback! We also have a signed version that is printed slightly off. I’m not sure why because the “no resale” version printed perfectly. My dream …
Happy Boxing Day! It is the day after Christmas which also means the day after Maddox’s birthday and Jesus’ birthday. So we have a cake either way! This year he (Maddox, not Jesus) requested Black Tie Mousse Cake from Olive Garden. It runs about $10 per slice at the restaurant, but I just knew it …
Happy weekend! I’ve been reading “Why We Sleep” by Matthew Walker PhD. It has over 20,000 reviews on Amazon and almost 5 stars! That’s a ton for a non-fiction book really. Most of the reviews you always see are for fiction. But anyway, I digress. If you want to learn the latest and greatest on …
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We always have a bunch of birthdays around Christmastime. I try to change up the dessert a little bit and still keep to the chocolate cake requests that happen every 2 weeks at this time of year. Buttercream is made with SO much butter and requires a bit …

Currently, the grocery store shelves are out of necessities like toilet paper, fresh meat and frozen vegetables …
Welcome to a remake of my son’s favorite birthday cake! I have been making this super easy chocolate cake since we started the blog. At age 5, Little Whisk Together received an Angry Birds Cake with Chocolate. I have been making the deep, dark delicious chocolate cake ever since – with some whole wheat flour, …
Good Day! My son has made this twice now and I realized I made it last year without ever posting it! It is really good and if a 10 year old can make granola – YOU can too! Granola is sooo easy to make and sooo expensive at the store. Feel free to also check …
It’s strawberry season! My favorite food in the whole wide world! My 6 year old daughter made this chocolate cream cheese dip with some leftover cream cheese we had and it was DELICIOUS! So quick and easy! Plus it pairs well with all kinds of fruits and graham crackers. The kids are sometimes hungry after …
Howdy! Here are some of the latest fairy photos from a park photo shoot last week. I just love the sun behind trees and bushes!!! Creates such pretty bokeh. Book: I continue to read “Washington” by Ron Chernow in hopes that no one else in St. Charles county will request the book. It is …
Book: I started Ron Chernow’s “Washington” and it reminds us how little decisions have such a big impact. How did Washington at such a young age get to where he needed to be? His family was not upper class nor lower. He may not have become a figure at all in history. But he …
