Air Fryer for the win!! These are great especially for after school snacks. The boys are eating everything and love bagel bits and pizza rolls and using an air fryer makes it fast and easy!

I love a good Recipe stand! I didn't want to buy one cause I'm way too cool for that but I finally did and no regrets! Plus, love the wood on it! It's classy not trashy.

This is the 2nd Kitchenaid I own. I use it almost daily. I bake allll the time and this one sits out on my counter. Works so well for cookies, bread, dough. Worth the money!

I love my pyrex! I use mostly for liquid and you use the 2 cup and the 4 cup. Never a bad purchase.

If you dont want to buy a silpat, I use these sheets. I use them for a lot of things. You can cut them for cake pans or anything they help make things not stick. Plus, it comes with a TON!
