March. National Peanut Month.
Hold the phone. Sound the alarms. IT’S NATIONAL PEANUT MONTH! And we only have 2 more days to celebrate!!! Grab a friend, love, foe, pet, neighbor, whatever, grab someone and celebrate. Or I guess this is a time when you can realize you don’t need anyone and you can simply celebrate alone. Fine.
Regardless. Bust out the peanut products! Peanut Butter. Peanuts. Umm… well, thats all I know that contains peanuts. So yea.
Toasted Oven decided to celebrate this glorious month by whipping up some Peanut Butter and Jelly cookies with a twist; rolled in potato chips! (what the what!?!??!?!) And of course, a TO is not complete unless there is a cocktail…. Raspberry Bellini’s because, well, why not!?
(WARNING* if you have a peanut allergy, do NOT partake in this Toasted Oven recipe)

Feel Better Fast- with Toasted Oven
Yay it’s finally feeling like spring! No more chilly mornings, no more blasted space heaters just to fall asleep. SPRING!
But as many of you know, with drastic weather change comes health change. Some sort of chest cold/flu-like thing has been going around. YUCK! So Ketry and I decided to whip up a little Feel Better Fast food and drink, hot toddy’s (toddies?!) and banana choc. chip. pancakes, because who doesn’t like pancakes?!
***These things will not cure what ever you are fighting…they simply make you feel happy***
So cozy up on the couch, grab your favorite blanket, and take the thermometer outta your mouth, without further ado, Toasted Oven.

Let’s get Green and Toasted {Oven}
Top of dee mornin’ to ya!
Yea, I too agree that it is a bit silly to be sounding “Irish” as a mexican, but I love holidays and find myself constantly excited for them. Regardless if they have ANYTHING to do with me.
With that being said, this week’s Toasted Oven is all about St. Patrick’s Day. But first, do you actually know who or what St. Patrick Day is? Well.. a quick little wikipedia history lesson for you begins in 3,2,1…Saint Patrick (c. AD 387–461), the most commonly recognised of the patron saints of Ireland, and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland.
Woah! How interesting! That’s crazy that sooooo many people celebrate this guy! People are awesome!!
So grab a green beer, some corn beef and hash, and watch as Ketry and I celebrate St. Patrick.
xo & 4-leaf clovers,

Treat Yo’ Self…Toasted Oven style
Do this for him, she would like you to do this for her, blah blah blah! Sometimes we need to do stuff for ourselves! We need to treat ourselves! And not just to the finer things in life like fur, diamonds, and riches. But simple things…. like drinks and desserts.
This week’s Toasted Oven we created Rice Crispy TREAT YO SELVES with Girl Scout crumbles (admit it, you have a ton of boxes at home) and MY TIMES (mai tai’s)
So take a little time for yourself this weekend and watch as we do the same!
