g r o w t h • I remember when my 8-year-old mornings would begin as soon as fruity pebbles entered my mouth. Life was oh so simple. My ~difficult~ daily decisions consisted of asking myself whether a PB&J or Nutella sandwich belonged in my lunch box. During those days, I desperately wanted to be “older.” The idea of driving a car, having my own agency, and doing anything I wanted sounded liberating. Today, I have many of those opportunities—and, honestly, it’s scary. The semester just started, and I already feel behind. I’m telling myself to make this time count—because before you know it time will pass and I’ll wish I still had the moments when I was sitting in class. P.S. This ice cream makes my heart sing and my mouth dance. #ontheblog
w i n t e r • The hot chocolate, the colorful lights, and the cold nights. Oh, I love the wintertime. The bundles of clothing, the cinnamon filled recipes, and the joyful atmosphere. Although it’s only September, I couldn’t wait to get out my snowflake pan. There’s something about banana bread in the shape of a snowflake that gives me a chill, but with one bite my heart feels warm. The same sensations I feel on a December morning at home. I stand in the cold, sip my hot chocolate, and feel my heart begin to sing. Oh, the wintertime is my thing. ❄️❤️ #hiraissodramatic #justeatthebread
e x c i t e m e n t • On my third birthday, I was exceptionally excited (swipe to see some proof). My mom baked me a homemade chocolate cake adorned with my absolute favorite chocolate: m&ms. I spent that day standing on a chair picking the m&ms off the cake (or so I have been told). I’m embarrassed to say I’d do the same today. These chocolate cupcakes are the best way to celebrate the day—and the recipe is on the blog. I promise they’ll make you as happy as 3-year-old Hira. ☺️
c o n f l i c t • These appear to be normal chocolate muffins, right? Wrong. Absolutely wrong. I call these “house dividing triple chocolate muffins” because they create conflict. After the batch of twelve comes from the oven, you eat one and then you want another one and then another one. Before you know it they’re all gone. Your family members enter the kitchen expecting a taste—little do they know they won’t even receive a crumb. Am I being dramatic? Maybe. They’re that good, I promise. (As I wrote this out, I felt like I was writing the plot to an action thriller. Imagine a movie about missing muffins. I could star in that.) #hollywoodhereicome #ontheblog 🤤
