Today I am sharing with you a recipe my grandmother gave to me. It’s one I make every holiday. Why I haven’t posted it until now is beyond me. I think it’s because I make it and eat it and get into a sugary stupor. So this year I am sharing it before I make it, hence the no photos. I’ll be sure to do a photo only post of the yumminess when I do make it.

Hi, I’m Toni — a mom of three, psych major, Gulf Coast girly, and full-time collector of life plot twists. I’m currently navigating mid-life with caffeine, humor, and the kind of chaos that deserves its own sitcom. Between college meltdowns, Disney escapism (hey adulting is hard and Mickey doesn't judge), family adventures, and whatever fresh nonsense life throws at me, I’m documenting it all with honesty, sass, and zero attempts at pretending I have it together. Welcome to A Daily Dose of Toni — the chaos era, but make it cozy.
