8 Things To Bake This Weekend

In This Article:

1. Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate cookies are a classic. Everyone loves them are they are sure to be a hit no matter where you bring them. Or eat them all yourself you deserve it. Instead of chocolate chips try using really high quality chocolate and cutting it into chunks!

2. Caramel Brownies

I made these the other night because I love caramel in every dessert I can possibly put it in. The flavor is pretty self-explanatory, but if you're trying to have something extremely decadent try these.

3. Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

This dessert is one of my favorites. I love any dessert that has fruit in, I think it adds a refreshing element to desserts that would otherwise be heavy or overwhelming. We all know about pineapple upside down cakes, but we do not make them nearly enough!

4. Apple Turnovers

If you are craving apple pie but don't want all the fuss that comes with it, apple turnovers are the perfect compromise. They are small and portable, easy to make and super tasty.

5. Bread Pudding

When I went to New Orleans over the summer I went to a restaurant that had quite possibly the best bread pudding I've ever had. Luckily I found an exact copy of the recipe, I have already made this multiple times and can attest to its deliciousness.

6. Red Velvet Cupcakes

Something a little more indulgent and absolutely Instagram worthy. Red velvet cupcakes are super good, especially with a cream cheese frosting. This is my favorite recipe.

7. Coconut Macarons

Not to be confused with macaroons, these little treats are so good. Feel free to explore different flavors. These can be pretty complicated to make, so if you're up for challenge these will be so worth it.

8. Crème Brûlée

The crème de la crème of baking, the ultimate dessert. Creamy custard under a blanket of caramelized sugar. Not only is it delicious, but you get to use a blow torch. These can also be hard to make, but even if you can't achieve the crispy top, the custard is still good as hell.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
