Easy recipes, yummy bites, life, and geekery
I’ve been doing a whole lot of working, planning, and traveling lately, as you may have seen from my Instagram. One of these trips was a smorgasbord of luxury in Sonoma County, California. My day job sent me for a media trip to see what Sonoma County had to offer for a destination wedding weekend….
Last week I shared this easy and basic cream cheese frosting and teased the grain-free carrot cake on which it topped. Finally, that cake recipe is heeeeere.
