It's National Dessert Day! I made spiced apple butter, so I offer you this spiced apple butter loaf cake, with apple butter cream cheese frosting and a swirl of even more apple butter on top. Picture taken in the wild at a Hobbit-themed fall brunch I hosted!

I promised you another event announcement, and here it is! I am SO excited to bring cookies and overload brownies to Bookwyrm at the West Hartford Public Library on July 25th. From the coordinators: "We are excited to announce that the West Hartford Public Library's BookWyrm Festival will be returning in all its pomp and glory on Saturday, July 25, 2026. From 10am to 4pm we will celebrate all things TTRPG (table-top role playing games) and LARP (live action role play) with music, food, shopping, crafts, and more!" There were over 2200 visitors last year, which means a ton of opportunity to make new friends, jump into a game, and visit the amazing selection of vendors! I am really looking forward to this event, and I hope to see you there!

Do you play any roleplaying games or board games? What cookies or brownies would you love to snack on while playing a new game?

I often get asked about how many treats are in my house at a given time. Honestly, not many. However, when I do bake for my household, I go hard. These pecan sticky buns are thick, with nearly 2 full pounds of pecans on/in them and a brown sugar caramel sauce. Fluffy buns, crunchy pecans, sticky caramel. What more could a girl want?
