Recipe Wednesday

Hello hello !!

First of I want to give you a quick update on where the heck I have been since Vegas! You may have thought that I was left there ;) I was not, but we did have a fabulous time. However if you are planning to make a trip there I do NOT recommend staying at the Luxor, I actually will never probably step my foot in there again, just an FYI :) But it was great to get away and celebrate with our friends!

Since coming back to reality I feel like it has been a whirlwind of craziness, we have literally had something to do everyday it feels like....so now that I feel like maybe things are toning down (knock on wood), I NEED to blog!! Honestly!

Soo I have also been trying to do this lovely thing for my boyfriend every night called homemade dinners! I know, honestly what is that?! Buut I have come to the conclusion that I actually LOVE LOVE LOVE to cook and bake, especially when the fam likes it :) Soo in light if that I will be starting Recipe Wednesday! I will post my favorite recipe from the past week, I usually get them from aton of different blogs soo you will be able to find some other yummies! I dont know about you but I am ALWAYS on the hunt for new recipes, especially healthy ones. So for the first Recipe Wednesday I present....dun dun dun....
