Everybody loves caramel sauce but peanut butter caramel sauce takes your traditional ice cream topping to another level! I haven’t been doing a ton of baking since L was born.

I don’t feel like all that much happened this week… these winter weeks are kind of all blurring together. I was doing really well but now I’m starting to get a bit stir crazy. I’m in hermit mode more than ever with little L in the picture. I did do some baking, though, and have…

Posted on February 5, 2015
New Mom Real Talk: Mom and Baby Must-Haves (through 16-weeks post-partum) Before L was born, I consulted so many online lists and asked friends what we would need for a newborn.
