Gourmet Cupcakes

Ben and I hit up the bakery a couple blocks from my condo recently and came home with these delicious cupcakes. The one on the left is S'mores and the right is Almond Joy. The S'mores was my fav! They each came in an individual chinese takeout container. Such a cute idea for a gift! Now I know what to get my Secret Santa recipient.

yes, the middle of each was filled!

Too Bad More People Don't Read My Blog

Because this old video I found is hilaaarious.

I'm in NYC but I can't see this....

.....because I'm here for just the day and stuck in one of these:

BOOOOOOOOO

Wedding Decor

I loved these centerpieces at my sorority sister's wedding. I took an up close shot after way too many drinks so you can't really get the full effect of them, but they were beautiful. Hydrangeas really are one of my favorite flowers. Sunflowers will always be first, but there's just something about hydrangeas that make bouquets and arrangements so romantic.



The setting was amazing as well. Loved the lilly pads in the pool. Now if only we had a heat lamp by our table. That would've been the cherry on top! Don't fall in! Luckily, no one did... and with my friends, I cannot believe it!

More Tailgate Food

So I finally found a chance to update! YAY! I don't have much time as I have a meeting in 15 minutes so I will make this short and sweet. Here's what we did for the UVA vs Duke game, which was so awful that we spent the last half in the parking lot eating and drinking more!

Basic broccoli salad. It was nomlicious and sweet. The recipe was from an old cookbook so a simple google search should hook you up with a variation.

Bisquick Sausage balls are the best invention ever. SO YUMMY. We used spicy sausage for a kick!

This recipe is soooo easy. Take turkey dogs, cut them in thirds and wrap them in bacon (sliced in half), sprinkle with brown sugar and bake for 40 mins on 320 degrees

And for dessert! This was a little bit more complicated and the final result was good, however the top layer was too buttery tasting (that didn't stop me from eating a million though). I would prefer just the bottom later of coconut and chocolate!

I've been so busy at work and with personal travel that I have neglected my blog... and my google reader! Hopefully I will have a chance to update tomorrow. At least I will have some goodies to post. Here's a preview:
