Before becoming a SAHM, and then later a WAHM, I worked in Corporate America. At that time, in the early 90's, I attended a company Christmas party where a co-worker brought this delicious cheesecake. She was kind enough to share the recipe with me.
I had never tried an ooey gooey butter cake prior to this one. I have seen them online of course, but never sampled one for myself. I saw all the "It's very sweet" warnings and promptly ignored them. I mean, I have made this. And this. And this.

This easy Coconut Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Recipe is a made with a delicious vanilla graham cracker base with a coconut curd and chocolate chips. Sometimes I can get stuck on replay. Now, if I'm stuck on something like putting off exercise for days on end, that is not good.
Warm buttery Fried Nectarines or Peaches Recipe topped with a delicious vanilla mascarpone. When I find ripe peaches or nectarines they are hard to pass up. Such an intoxicating fragrance they have, with fabulous colors. This time of the year, especially in upstate South Carolina, fresh peaches are plentiful.
