Thanksgiving Holiday Entertaining

This year, our family isn't celebrating Thanksgiving the traditional way. We are headed out to the desert in our 5th Wheel to go dirt bike riding and quad-ing. I agreed to do this only because I can still have Thanksgiving dinner in my trailer! Thanks to Private Selection coffee, cheeses, crackers and olives, I'll have great appetizers, just like I would at home! Thank you BzzAgent for choosing me to be a part of this campaign!

Green Mountain Wellness Coffee

Thanks to BzzAgent, I have a chance to try Green Mountain Wellness Coffees in my Keurig. There are 2 blends; a focus blend and an antioxidant blend. Focus Blend™ is a rich, well-balanced brew with 50mg of L-Theanine in every 8 fl. oz. serving. It’s an inspirational blend that helps you zero in on the things that matter most. The antioxidant blend is a good source of antioxidant vitamins C and E in every 8 fl oz. serving. Looking forward to getting my focus back and keeping my immune system strong Thank you BzzAgent for letting me be a part of this campaign!

Glazed Doughnut Muffins

This morning I decided to try a recipe I found on Pinterest. These doughnut muffins were awesome. They were super easy to make and a perfect addition to my morning coffee and the kids' bubbly juice! Give them a try. They will please any doughnut or muffin lover!

Happy Independence Day!

Be. Wine

I'm so excited to try this new wine. There are 2 varieties I'm excited about. Be Radiant and Be Flirty (Riesling and Pink Moscato). Tomorrow at the neighborhood potluck I'll break open a bottle of each and get a taste of both. Hopefully the neighbors like it too! I received a free coupon for 2 bottles of Be. Wine from BzzAgent.

Memorial Day

We had a pool full of kids yesterday...12 to be exact. What a fun afternoon even though the sun barely came out. There was lots to eat, including these:

Pool buddies:

P(ray) I(magine) G(ive) Cupcakes

These little piggies are headed to Compass Bible Church for their P(ray) I(magine) G(ive) party. I'm thrilled with how they turned out!

Hawaiian Sweet Rolls

A few weeks ago, my husband bought me a new bread machine. My old one fell off the counter while making bread (it's a long story!) Anyway, I've been trying new recipes and today tried this one. Can I just say, "amazing"?

The Hawaiian roll connoisseur in the house was impressed and said after the first bite, "I'm in Hawaiian roll heaven". So, go ahead. Break out your bread machine. You know that boxy thing you only bring out on special occasions? It's always a special occasions for Hawaiian sweet rolls. Just think, in 3 hours or so you could be biting into a sweet, soft pillow of yumminess. Completely worth the carbs. I promise.

I'm back

My laptop screen went belly-up. Meaning I had to be sitting at my desk connected to an external monitor to use my machine. So blogging stopped because I always did it while sitting on the couch after the kids went to bed. My birthday was just a few days ago and my dear husband bought me a MacBook Air. Ahhh...bliss. I'm blogging now as I sit by the pool, watching the kids play. I'm back... Watch out.
