If you're like me, you always have to have dessert. For some reason I can't explain, I always crave cookies more in the cooler months, and we all have certain kinds of flavors we associate with specific times of the year. I'm not a huge baker, but cookies are pretty fun and simple, and we all need some fall treats to snack on when we bundle up with a warm mug of tea and a movie. As we enter September and the start of fall is among us, here are 5 unique cookies that will taste better homemade.

1. Gingersnaps

Let's start simple. We can all go out and buy these at the store, but they're much tastier and chewier when you bake them yourself. Plus, you can add your own little twists to them (ahem, adding cinnamon and pumpkin spice) .

2. Spiced Apple Cookies

A fun way to incorporate fruit into your diet. Well, they're not really healthy, like at all; but they are delicious. A few cookies on a breezy fall night with a horror film is always a great thing.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip

For all of us who hate raisins, but love oatmeal cookies. Well now you don't have to pick or bite around the raisins anymore, just sub chocolate chips.

Salted Caramel Mocha 

For all of my chocolate lovers, there's a special place in my heart for you. If you're wondering, yes, this is a name of a Starbucks drink, but it's better in warm, fresh cookie form of course.

Pumpkin Chai Snickerdoodles

You always need something pumpkin in the fall. I love pumpkin and cinnamon together, so these are the perfect flavors to mix for fall.

Certain flavors are just made for fall, so take advantage and use it as an excuse for as long as you can. Enjoy!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
