Living in a dorm is a little tricky. I do not have access to a real kitchen, so one of the main things I am missing from home is being able to cook. I have been keeping track of recipes to try when I get home for break. I have been eating healthy the last few weeks and cutting out desserts, so my sugar tooth is raging for some chocolate at the moment. Here are a few Sweets that caught my eye the last few days!
