All of my s’mores loving friends raise your hands! Nothing says summer like toasty marshmallows, melty chocolate and crispy graham crackers. I fell in love with these S’mores Cookie Bars a couple summers ago and every year I start craving them as soon as the weather warms up!

Happy one month to the blog!

Now for one of my favorite anniversaries. Five years ago today, I was talking to my boyfriend as I drove home from work on a Friday night. When I opened the door to my apartment, there he was! He’d flown from Pennsylvania to South Carolina to surprise me and was all dressed up and standing in the middle of my living room. He asked me to marry him…and I said yes! The last five years have been…
