While trying to figure out a fun and unique snack for my son's upcoming birthday party, I accidentally invented the ultimate brownie, soon to be known as the FK Brownie (thanks Betsy! patent pending ^_^).
The kids will love filling their baskets with these delicious Easter treats made from Momma Reiner's classic marshmallow recipe.

Cupcake Ingredients:
As fall gets into full swing, we can't help but be super excited for one of our favorite holidays, HALLOWEEN!
When we were kids, we used to love to trick-or-treat and now with children and nieces of our own, we are really looking forward to sharing this fun day with them. But don't get too scared... just because it's Halloween doesn't mean we feed them with endless amounts of candy and unhealthy snacks!
With fall just around the corner, it's the perfect time of year to make some great canned goods, especially while fresh fruit is still in season!
We love to make fresh berry jam and have tried many, many recipes. Some worked and came out perfectly and others just didn’t jell, but the flavor was great so we used it as a topping for shortcake or ice cream.
On Monday, we celebrated National Licorice Day! Before you all go run out to Costco and buy those economy size tubs of Red Vines... pump the brakes!! It turns out black licorice is actually the way to go!

If you have ever thought that you've felt better after eating chocolate candy, chances are, you probably did. That's because eating chocolate triggers the release of feel-good hormones. If you like the feeling that you get from eating chocolate and you are an environmentalist at heart, making and eating your own organic candy may make you feel even better.
The senses come alive as the leaves start to turn with the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of autumn. Families trek through fallen leaves to pumpkin patches in search of the perfect gourds to decorate their homes. What front porch or window isn't complete on Halloween without the eerie glow of a hand-carved jack-o'-lantern?
The fun doesn't end when the carving is complete. Baked pumpkin seeds have been a family treat for generations. Pumpkin seed recipes can highlight the traditional ingredients and provide tasty new twists.
