Best Ever Apple Fritter Loaf!

I don’t ever blog about food, like, I’m not a chef or a cook or even a foodie. But I do have life experience cooking and baking as a single mom with two of the most honest and critical children ever.

Comfort.

I feel like you’d soothe my soul. You’d console me and make me feel better and you’d touch me without even touching me. You’d lay with me and stroke me and touch my hair, and you’d play with my curls. You’d look into my eyes and you’d stay there, quiet, feeling my need for peace. … More Comfort.

Backseat.

I’m pullin’ over near your building, I light a candle on the dashboard, we’re chillin’. I knew a girl like you would love a scene like this, you got class but deep down you’re real freakish, you got it all, but you never had a wild episode. – ‘Backseat’ ~ LL Cool J Original journal … More Backseat.
