Veggie Pot Pie Cupcakes

Simple Minds, Simple Sprinkles

May 14, 2012 by Cara

Being a woman, I have the natural talent of over complicating things. You’re welcome, men.  {Hey, we put up with your smelliness so consider us balanced and even}. I don’t know what it is about me but when it comes to choices, the path of simplicity never seems as thrilling as making a big mess out of my options. The irony occurs…

Salted Caramel Mini Donuts

May 3, 2012 by Cara

What a difference a week makes. I know I have been rather silent on my end and if you have been stopping by as of late, you will know that I have been alluding to experiencing some life changes. I have held back on the exact details; I will one day soon expand more on that but…

Peanut Butter Cup Healing

April 30, 2012 by Cara

Bodhichitta is a Sanskrit word that means “noble or awakened heart.” Just as butter is inherent in milk and oil is inherent in a sesame seed, the soft spot of bodhichitta is inherent in you and me.

Nick’s Carrot & Raisin Cake

April 27, 2012 by Cara
