Bakers Gotta Bake—and a GIVEAWAY!

October 20, 2020 By Tamera Alexander

We're hosting Thanksgiving at our house this year, and I'm already looking forward to being with family, to playing games, and to preparing (and eating) those delicious foods associated with the holidays.

I last baked this delicious Keto "Samoa" cookie bar. You might have eaten a Girl Scout Samoa cookie? Well this is the low carb gluten free version of that, and it...is...fabulous!

Odds & Ins

January 15, 2019 By Tamera Alexander

Have you ever been excited to meet a friend for coffee and then when you got together, you couldn't decide what to share first? Well, that's me today. I've got lots of quick things to share, but these things don't really have a lot to do with each other. But they're fun! So here we go... Last week I headed to Dallas to help kick off the year for a dear friend's Bible Study group (hello … [Read more...]
