Chicken and Mushroom Lasagna

I am feeling super sad about my lack of cooking and baking this summer.

I want to be doing way more of it.

I just don’t have time.

I know I can’t complain becuase it has been the most fun-filled summer of my entire life…

So I’ll stop complaining and promise you that the fall will be filled with lots of baking and cooking!

I also refuse to think about the fall and winter approaching…

So instead I will tell you about the fantastic weekend I had.

Mikey and I went to DePere Wisconsin for a pool party.

S’mores Blondies

I had never had a Blondie before.

I made these because I was dying to make/eat a blondie, and you know my obsession with all things S’more.

I saw this recipe and had to try it.

I now know that a Blondie is pretty much a cookie in bar form.

They are buttery, gooey and pretty phenomenal.

(Side Note)

Every time I hear the word phenomenal I think of the movie Wedding Crashers.

“Are you kidding me? I love crab cakes! They’re phenomenal”

AND

“You and I both know I’m a phenomenal dancer!”

Mikey says that second quote at least once a week.

If you know Mikey, you know he loves to dance…

Homemade Funfetti Cupcakes

It was my birthday on Friday.

It was by far, hands down THE greatest bday of ALL time!

It was more like a birthmonth thanks to my amazing family and friends!

My favorite cake is funfetti.

So I decided to make myself some funfetti birthday cupcakes from scratch.

They were super tasty and really fun to decorate and take pictures of.

I’m not sure if you can tell by the pictures…but…

I got a new camera!!!!!!!!!!

I have the worlds greatest husband. Literally.

Not only did he get me the camera of my dreams. But he surprised me by taking the day off of work and coming home early with a bouquet of flowers and a basket (that he stole, don’t tell) full of all my favorite things!

There were dove chocolates, sour patch kids, peanut butter M&M’s, a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Ice cream, gum, a bottle of wine, and last but not least…a cat toy.
