As I was thinking about this week’s blog, I thought how easy would it be to do a Mother’s Day blog. I would just pick one of my favorite childhood recipes and I would be done in no time. Problem is, I have a ton of favorites. So this week I enlisted the help of one of my friends.

Hippity hop, hippity hop! It’s time for that little cotton tail. And I know just what to make him or her, whatever the case may be. You may already have your Easter menu planned, but before you head to the grocery store, let me give you one more idea. Here’s a sweet treat that is perfect for the season and even sneaks a few healthy ingredients past your picky eaters.

Are you ready for 2013? I know I am! Don’t get me wrong, 2012 was pretty good for the Bogards, but I love January 1. It’s like a new beginning. I let go of things I can’t fix and start new projects. I look forward to watching my daughter grow another year older and a little wiser, too. It is a pretty exciting time in my household.

Sometimes, inspiration strikes at the strangest times. As I was preparing my grocery list this week, my wonderful mother-in-law stopped by with a box of very fresh, very ripe peaches. She had been to the local farmers’ market, and they gave her an amazing deal on the whole box because they were so ripe and needed to be eaten as soon as possible.

Do you have any special Halloween memories from growing up? For me, I’ll always remember Trick-or-Treating at our neighbor’s house down the street. He worked for Coca-Cola, and each year he gave us a full-sized candy bar and a can of Coke. It was way better than just a fun-sized piece of ordinary candy. 

Another thing that sticks in my mind this time of year is Candy Apples. Maybe it’s because the color of caramel reminds me of the turning leaves or the sticky sweet smell that reminds me of the local fairgrounds. So, in honor of Halloween and this fall season, I decided to put a fresh spin on this fall favorite by making Candy Apple Cupcakes.
