This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Rebecca G.! I hope you love this Cafe Collection as much as I do! Even if you’ve only read a post or two here on Bluebonnets & Brownies, I’m pretty sure it’s come across clearly that I am a coffee addict. But let me clarify: I am …

Oh, peanut butter. I never realized how much I relied on this super food until I moved to England, where it’s a more recent phenomenon, and very hard to find in its “American” version. I remember having to buy imported Skippy, a brand I’d never bought when I lived in the States. I also remember …
Today we’re doing something a little differently here on B&B, simply because I LOVE Leap Day. A whole extra 24 hours? All year long we wish for more time. Well, people, THIS is it! If you follow along here regularly, you know that I am a Keurig K-Cup ambassador, and the official recipe developer for …
I’ll admit, I’ve been slow to jump on the Pinterest bandwagon. It seemed like one more social network thing to keep up with (I already gave up on Google+ for just that reason), and to be honest, the older I get, the more I realize time away from a digital screen is important. But I …
Puxatawney Phil may have predicted six more weeks of Winter, but down here in South Texas, it’s been bordering on shorts weather for a few weeks. Just yesterday my sister, niece and I went for a burrito, and actually considered sitting outside to eat them! For someone who has spent the last six years in …

At the time, their hazelnut praline Easter Bunny with popping candy was flat out the best piece of chocolate I’d ever eaten. It was like fireworks of …
When I stumbled (literally – through StumbleUpon) on Lisa Fain’s blog, Homesick Texan, the first thing I thought was: “Woohoo! Another Texan in the NYC area!” and the second thing I thought was: “That is a perfect name for a blog!”. I landed on her blog about a year after I’d started mine. But she’s …
If you know me, you know I have a mahooooosive sweet tooth. When I was asked to review the new cookbook, “Sugar, Sugar: Every Recipe Has a Story” by Kimberly “Momma” Reiner and Jenna Sanz-Agero, how could I possibly say no with a title like that? I really enjoy Kimberly and Jenna’s approach to desserts …
Today marks a week of cookbook giveaways on Bluebonnets & Brownies. Just in time for holiday gift giving, the three books I’ll share with you are all books I’m giving to friends this holiday season. Check back on Wednesday and Friday for two more fabulous cookbooks! I’m starting the week off with Pam Anderson’s newest …
