NOTD: Essie Peak Show
With winter lingering around for another month or so, I thought it was the perfect time to write a review of one of the polishes released this season.

Strawberry Chocolate Chip Mini Cheesecake Bites
Impress your guests with this mini cheesecake recipe that’s easy to create but makes everyone think that you spent all day baking. I came up with this dessert when I was in the baking mood but didn’t want to have to go shopping for additional ingredients. I always have graham crackers, cream cheese, chocolate, and fruit around the house, so this dessert came together easily.
Now, I like to make these decadent little desserts to give as gifts or to bring to parties. They are always the highlight of the dessert table, so you may want to make a double batch.
While there are a few steps to this recipe, they’re quick and easy. You will be indulging in a mini cheesecake in no time.

January 2016 Bakers Krate Review
As a dessert lover, I can’t tell you how excited I am to share today’s post on Bakers Krate, a subscription box featuring hand crafted gourmet baked goods produced by Canadian dessert experts.
Each box contains at least six fresh baked goods such as cake pops, cake jars, cookies, dessert squares, and more made by local bakeries in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Subscriptions are $19.99 per month plus $9.99 shipping. You can save a bit each month by signing up for a three month or six month plan, and receive 15% off your first box with the coupon code 2016. If you sign up before the 20th of the month, you will receive the current month’s box. I like how you have the option of upgrading, skipping a month, or cancelling at any time if you choose to.
You can also send Bakers Krate as a gift. After all, who wouldn’t want to find a box of sweet treats in their mailbox?
At the moment, Bakers Krate ships across Canada only but is currently running a kickstarter fund me campaign to open its doors to customers in the United States. Click HERE to sign up and help Bakers Krate spread the sweetness stateside.
Now, let’s talk about the January box*.

Seasoned Pretzels Recipe
With this year’s Super Bowl only a week away, I wanted to share one of my favourite snack recipes. My grandma made these seasoned pretzels for years and now I’m taking over the tradition. My family requests that I make them every couple months and friends always ask for the recipe. These pretzels are so flavourful and very easy and inexpensive to make. This recipe makes a large batch which is necessary since they are very addictive.
