I have had multiple people comment about my ability to make rice crispy treats that actually stay gooey instead of turning into dried out, flavorless little bricks. I never gave it much thought until a recent pot-luck luncheon and it was overrun with these tasteless treats that, even though not refrigerated, were still hard as rocks.

Crab Cake Eggs Benedict |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
~Confucius
I have never understood why people insist on making things so much more difficult on themselves. This is especially true when it comes to my coworkers. Nothing can just be. Everything has to be twisted, overdone, or a dozen steps have to be added to a simple task. What a week it has been!
What better way to welcome the weekend than to create an elegant brunch?

Lemon Blueberry Sticky Buns |
Let's start this week with a smile and a delicious sticky roll!
It is Monday and Monday's require an extra dose of motivation to get up and get the week started. My motivation today happens to be Lemon Blueberry Sticky Buns. Let me tell you, these little rolls are absolutely AMAZING.
I am not typically a fan of making any kind of rolls just because I can never get my dough to rise properly (mostly because I am impatient), but this dough was fool proof. It came out perfectly with little work.

Salted Caramel Chai Tea Latte |
They say that wisdom comes with age. At 31 I still do not feel wise enough to make life altering decisions on my own.
The biggest decision I feel confident in making today is adding salted caramel and steamed milk to my chai tea. This was an amazing decision, by the way. Sweet. Salty. Creamy. Smooth. Foamy. Absolute Bliss. Oh yeah, and crazy simple if you have the caramel sauce already on hand.

Chocolate Strawberry Shortcakes |
There is a whole lot of NOPE going on in my house today. I am an extremely lazy bum who hasn't found any other motivation than to make dessert. There is always tomorrow to create a fantastic, multi-course meal. Today it's all about laying out, getting a little sun, and relaxing with a good book.
