Happy almost Valentine's Day, Reader! When it comes to Valentine's Day, I feel like there are two kinds of recipes: The ones that make cute little hearts out of everything in shades of red and pink, and the ones that overload on chocolate. I love both, but I have more far more chocolate recipes than heart recipes on my website, so I guess that tells you where my preferences lie! Speaking of, did you know that you can add The Floral Apron as a preferred source on Google? You might have noticed that if you search for a keyword like "small batch focaccia," my focaccia recipe will sometimes show up at the top of the search results. And other times, you may have to scroll for a bit until you find mine. If you add me as a preferred source, though, Google will prioritize showing you my easy-to-follow recipes with cleanup ratings when you search for a recipe idea! You can even add some of your other favorite bloggers and websites, too 🥰 It's free, and it helps Google provide you with more relevant search results! That said, I'm sharing my favorite chocolatey Valentine's Day recipes below to save you a search ;) Valentine's FavoritesIf non-chocolatey Valentine's Day recipes are more your thing (like Linzer cookies or red velvet cupcakes), I put all of my Valentine's Day recipes in one spot for you! May your Valentine's Day be full of cute lil hearts and chocolate. Happy baking! P.S. If you make any of these recipes, it would mean the world if you leave a review of how the recipe turned out! It goes a long way to let others know it's a tried and trusted recipe 💛 |

Hey, Reader! Summer is well on its way, and we're having our first real heat wave this week, which is a real whiplash after our big trip a couple weeks ago—more on that below! I'm working my way through 10+ pounds (about 5 kilos) of fresh-picked blueberries with a lot of recipe testing. Until I have those recipes finalized and ready to share, here are some of my favorite recipes that don't require your oven: My Favorite No-Bake Recipes My aunt Deb was known for her Special K bars!

Happy Saturday! If you dread having to buy new minor kitchen appliances because it's hard knowing which online reviews you can trust, me too. That's why I started creating product reviews! For the last few years, any time I buy a new appliance, I take tedious notes and track everything I like and dislike about it over the next 6-12 months. I then compile all that information into a video, so you know if the product is actually worth purchasing. I bought a new kitchen appliance in September,...
