Whether your celebrate Ostara, Easter, Seder or simply springtime, chances are there's a dessert you love that goes well with this time of year. For me, it's pastel petit fours and sugar cookies, lightly lemon-flavored goodness and earl grey tea cakes! Doesn't that sound scrumptious? I'd love a nice high tea right now with all of that and some delicious cucumber sandwiches.

It's no secret that when it comes to poetry communities, AllPoetry is my favorite. It's just the one I enjoyed in college and I loved being able to collaborate, read and share, submit to contests and just belong to the community. They do have a Facebook page as well if you'd like to follow them there.

Hungry bloggers, how am I just now learning about sheet pan recipes? I've done so much in muffin tins, one-pan recipes and crockpots but I've never made a sheet pan meal! Have you heard of these? Just look at all of the things you can cook on one sheet for a full meal. The tandoori chicken is the one that's calling my name but most of these look sooo good.

When I was young, I used to get a kick out of how fast I read. I wasn't fast at first. I was an early reader, but it took me until second grade to get fast, and that's when my teacher let me check out middle school books because the younger books annoyed me. I remember the first time I read a chapter book and thought each chapter was a different story! Once I got the hang of it I was reading two or three "chapter books" a day, although back then they would be under 200 pages. Today they are door stoppers.
