Challenge to Myself

I am going to give myself a little challenge. A Food Challenge to be exact. You see, there is this site called www.pinterest.com. It is filled with so many things ranging from recipes to home improvement! I love it! So, what I want to do is try at least one new recipe that I find on there at least once a week if not more.

Today I want to tell you about a dish that we have already enjoyed twice! We love Monkey Bread! With that said there is this really good variation out there called Sticky Bun Breakfast Ring. You can find the recipe here.

I have been bad about taking pictures of my food, and I promise to get better at it!

For Easter I decorated cupcakes- they were inspired by Pinterest too, and I DID take pictures of those!

 Yes, this is a bunny with no eyes, I forgot to make a color for them, so I only made one.

My Bunny Buns cupcakes!

Here We Go!

I have been gone awhile once again. Last night at a meeting we were talking about blogs, and I realized that I needed to get back in the game- so, here I am! I didn't want my first blog back to be about random thoughts, so we are going to talk about food! One of my favorite things!
Last summer I was on a burger kick and blogged about all the different ones we were making- some were really good and we will have them again this summer. But, for now we are still on comfort foods, seeing as the weather cannot make up its mind as to if it is Winter, Spring or Summer. I am hoping that we are heading the right direction now, 59 degrees ans sunny today.
I joined Pinterest.com a couple of months ago and have found some things that have been pretty good. One dish I made last night, Slow Cooker Honey Sesame Chicken. You can get the Recipe here: http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2012/01/slow-cooker-honey-sesame-chicken-recipe.html

It was pretty good, and very easy to make. The kids and Tate really enjoyed it. I on the other hand thought it could have been better. I think there was too much soy sauce, I will make it again and cut back on the soy sauce. Unfortunately I did not think about taking pictures. I am glad that everyone enjoyed it!

Growing up

My sweet girl Ellyn is growing up. She has been asking for the past couple of weeks to get her ears pierced. Well, today was the day, we did it. I told her that it was going to hurt. She said okay. I asked her if she really still wanted to get them done. The answer, yes. She cried. It took us a couple of minutes to get her to let us do the other ear, but she did it.
