  • ✨Giveaway✨ and unsolicited fun fact: since we first started dating seven-ish years ago, my husband and I have only spent a couple of Valentine's days together. He's almost always been deployed or otherwise away for work. . The first year, we were living in different cities, and he ordered me flowers to say he wanted to be more than friends... but they weren't delivered. When he called that night to ask if anyone had sent me flowers I was not amused, until his surprise plan unraveled (I think there's a story about it somewhere on the blog). 😂 . Fast forward to this year, Henry is my sweetest valentine and instead of a romantic day, we're making cute little valentine cards for his daycare friends and chocolate goodie bags for his teachers. . Also, I know it's a little late, but when we dropped off our sweet treats at daycare this morning, I thought it might also be fun to send one of you lovelies a box with an assortment of some of my favorite snacking and baking chocolates. Sound fun? . All you need to do is follow @forkknifeswoon and leave me a comment below with your best/worst/most awkward Valentine's day story. Or just tell me your plans for today! Tag a chocolate lover for an extra entry, as many as you want! 😘 . Also, I made myself a chocolate snack cake. It happens to be vegan and it's coming to the blog soooon... 💕 . Sponsored by... me! Winner will be picked at random. Ends tomorrow night (2/15/19 at 11:59pm est). U.S. only. . . #chocolatelover #baking #chocolatecake #sprinkles #thesugarfiles #foodblogfeed #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #sweeeeets #thebakefeed #bakersgonnabake #f52grams #wsbakeclub #kingarthurflour #theeverygirlcooks #sprinkles #veganbaking #bakedfromscratch #bakersofinstagram #foodblogfeed #bakingblog #onthetable #freshbaked #whatsfordessert #imsomartha #forkknifeswoon #bhgfood #onthetable #marthabakes #dessertfirst #realsimple
  • I have been just blown away by the kindness and encouragement you guys have given me after my last post. Thank you, thank you, thank you! 💕💕💕 . The hard parts of motherhood can sometimes feel pretty isolating (especially when your husband is gone often for work and family is on the other side of the country) but all of your messages have been amazing, and so many of you can relate!! . (If you have no idea what I’m talking about, I saved my unintentionally emotional 🙈 story in highlights if you’re curious and want to weigh in) . You guys totally confirmed that I need to head in this new direction, and even if I lose some followers in the process, making this pivot and addressing what’s going on in my real life just feels like the right, most authentic way forward. I’m inspired to see where this takes me! . And thank you again for being here, I appreciate you and this little community so much!! 💕 . Oh, and these perfect chocolate cupcakes can be found in the archives! 😘 . . #cupcakes #chocolate #thesugarfiles #foodblogfeed #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #sweeeeets #thebakefeed #bakersgonnabake #f52grams #wsbakeclub #kingarthurflour #theeverygirlcooks #seasonaleats #bakedfromscratch #bakersofinstagram #foodblogfeed #bakingblog #onthetable #freshbaked #whatsfordessert #imsomartha #forkknifeswoon #bhgfood #onthetable #marthabakes #dessertfirst #realsimple
  • Raspberry lemon poppyseed cake 🙌🏻 ...which is really just an excuse to tell you that I’m thinking about making some changes to the blog, and just posted a really personal instastory all about it. If you were just thinking, “I really want to see Laura get teary-eyed today,” then click on over! 😂🙈 I would love to know your thoughts 💕💕 . And find this oh so easy cake (which is one of my favorites for this season) in the archives! . . #cake #raspberry #thesugarfiles #foodblogfeed #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #sweeeeets #thebakefeed #bakersgonnabake #f52grams #wsbakeclub #kingarthurflour #theeverygirlcooks #seasonaleats #bakedfromscratch #bakersofinstagram #foodblogfeed #bakingblog #onthetable #freshbaked #whatsfordessert #imsomartha #forkknifeswoon #bhgfood #onthetable #marthabakes #dessertfirst #realsimple
  • Wishing you a merry, merry Christmas, filled with love, laughter, delicious food, and maybe a baby Santa!! 🎄☺️💕 . . Also, I know that the holidays aren’t always picture perfect. I don’t think I ever talked about it, but last year, I spent Christmas alone with a very sick baby. My husband was nearing the end of a seven month deployment and we still didn’t have a diagnosis for Henry’s horrible digestive issues. I was by myself without really any local support system, and it was a pretty dark time. So, if you’re feeling sad or lonely or anxious or missing someone terribly in this season, know that you’re not alone, even if social media can sometimes make it seem that way. . We’re having a very low key Christmas this year, just the three of us (with my family coming later this week), but I am so, so thankful to have my love home this year, and to have a healthy, happy 15 month old, who adores books and sitting on big chairs and generally brings so much joy to our lives ☺️ . I’m also, so, so thankful for you, for following along, for making my recipes, and allowing me to have this dream career. Cheers to a happy holiday, whatever that means to you, can’t wait to bake together in the new year!!✨💕💕
  • One last batch of cookies for Santa: peppermint chocolate crinkle cookies! . And then checking out and doing a whole lot of nothing but watching Christmas movies with my two sick boys (only upside: more cookies for mama 😂) . These chewy, minty, sugar dusted babes are in the archives 😘 . . #chocolatelover #peppermint #christmascookies #holidaybaking #thesugarfiles #foodblogfeed #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #sweeeeets #thebakefeed #bakersgonnabake #f52grams #wsbakeclub #kingarthurflour #theeverygirlcooks #seasonaleats #bakedfromscratch #bakersofinstagram #foodblogfeed #bakingblog #onthetable #freshbaked #whatsfordessert #imsomartha #forkknifeswoon #bhgfood #onthetable #marthabakes #dessertfirst #realsimple @cooksillustrated
  • I haven't felt very on top of my holiday game this year. There are still gifts to buy, basically all the presents to wrap, Christmas lights still waiting to be strung on the front porch, and a holiday cookie to-bake list that is woefully unfinished. Good thing my family is coming to visit a few days *after* Christmas... 🙈😂 . BUT I did make this cake, kind of my grown-up version of a gingerbread house (that you actually want to eat when you're done decorating!): three layers of generously spiced gingerbread chocolate cake, topped with sweet ginger buttercream, iced gingerbread cookies and rosemary christmas "trees." Makes me feel like I've still kind of got it... 💁🏻😎 . get the ✨new✨ recipe on the blog today! http://www.forkknifeswoon.com/holiday-chocolate-spice-cake-with-ginger-buttercream/ . . #chocolatelover #gingerbread #layercake #christmascookies #holidaybaking #thesugarfiles #foodblogfeed #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #sweeeeets #thebakefeed #bakersgonnabake #f52grams #wsbakeclub #kingarthurflour #theeverygirlcooks #seasonaleats #bakedfromscratch #bakersofinstagram #foodblogfeed #bakingblog #onthetable #freshbaked #whatsfordessert #imsomartha #forkknifeswoon #bhgfood #onthetable #marthabakes #dessertfirst #realsimple

  • For the last minute bakers: gingersnap pumpkin pie bars, the quicker, easier, but no less delicious version of my ginger pumpkin pie, which seems to always be the most popular recipe on the blog this time of year (and for good reason 😎😂😘) .
