Nutella Nut
Yesterday was World Nutella Day and ever since I saw that mentioned, I can't get my mind out of the Nutella gutter.
I was well aware of this delectable treat waaaaaaay back in the 80s. My mom worked in an international department and after spying it in Europe, was able to source a jar every once in a while in some specialty shop. Honestly, it isn't quite as fun now that you can find it at any big box supermarket.

The latest commercials do crack me up as they tout Nutella as a healthy breakfast choice with its "simple, quality ingredients likes hazelnuts, skim milk, and a hint of cocoa". Yep. Almost the equivalent of a chia seed and kale shake in the morning.
I chose not to attempt any of these recipes this go round, mainly because my dad is visiting and...please, don't judge, he really is a good person, but...he doesn't like Nutella. At all. I know. If our baby pictures weren't spitting images of each other, I'd wonder. But you should make a batch of your favorite selection below. Isn't that what you are supposed to do the day after World Nutella Day?

Nutella and Pretzel Brownies - Bakingdom
S'mores with Nutella - Simply Delicious
Of course, you could skip all of the above and choose to devour some Nutella in the most popular form...directly out of the jar with a big spoon into your mouth.
No recipe needed.

January Favorites
After some technical difficulties, here is a video of my January 2014 favorites (says the girl who doesn't like to see herself on camera).
I now know that I say "um" and "aaaaand" way too many times to be well-spoken.
Lesson learned.
