If you're anything like me, you like to eat, can't cook to save your life, adore holidays, and always try to sneak dessert before the main meal.

In my book, dessert is the best part and always worth the calories. Don't get me wrong, my momma's stuffing could bring about world peace, but the star in my book is always our homemade apple and pumpkin pies. These are the only two dishes I can make without burning down the house and they are always a crowd pleaser. But this year, I want to change it up.

As I scroll through Facebook daily, I see all kinds of holiday baked goods that are just screaming for me to attempt them. I tend to save the pages and ideas, and I scoured my saved recipes to share just with you!

If you love apple pies, pumpkin anything, chocolate, cheesecake, and cinnamon rolls, look no further.

Again, if you're anything like me, you also can't understand a recipe when it's just words and measurements. To make your holiday baking as simple as possible, the videos can be watched and the recipe will unfold right before your eyes.

Forget the Tupperware at home for these desserts are sure to go the first time around.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
