Mini S’more Pies

Happy February!

As Winter drags on here in Michigan I love knowing that we are one month closer to Spring. I love the four seasons, but Winter is my least favorite. Days can be long and dark! I am definitely hoping Spring comes early!

While going through pictures from Summer, I remembered a few treats I made for our Cousin Campout party. Each year we have a big backyard campout for all the kids in our family who have summer birthdays. It is one of my favorite events of Summer!

Items needed:

Mini graham cracker pie crusts
Marshmallow Cheesecake recipe
chocolate syrup
Mini marshmallow bites

Layer ingredients in the mini pie crusts.

I love making little individual treats anytime we have a party! These mini s’more pies were a yummy treat that the kids loved!

These are so simple to make! Anytime of year!

Thank you for stopping by!

Donut Fruit Kabobs

This was a quick and easy treat for our beach trip.

I used some donut holes, strawberries and some skewer sticks.
Cut off the top of the strawberries and then alternate each item on a skewer stick. I started and ended each one with a donut hole which helped to hold them together.

The kids loved them and they were so easy for them to eat without getting sand all over.

Cucumber Spring Salad

Cucumber Spring Salad:

2 Cucumbers (peeled and cut into slices)
5 Cherry Tomatoes (cut into quarters)
Hidden Valley Dill Seasoning
1/2 cup of Sour Cream
1/4 cup of vinegar

Mix all items together!

YUM!

Tis’ The Season For Hot Cocoa

I LOVE sipping on a warm, creamy cup of hot cocoa this time of year and like many others I am addicted to Pinterest. I love having all of the things that inspire me organized all in one place! Here is some yummy hot cocoa inspiration: Hot Cocoa Station

Simple Meal

Today I woke up feeling a nauseas for the first time in a few months. I made some mint tea to help settle my stomach.

I also just wanted something simple for dinner and the first three months of my pregnancy I ate a lot of potato dishes which seemed to help with my stomach being upset.

I mixed together:
1 package of Simply Potatoes
Garlic
Dried Basil
Dried Italian Seasoning Mixture
Preheated the oven at 400 degrees.
Baked for 20 minutes.

After 20 minutes I took the mixture out and topped it with Parmesan Cheese and Bacon Bits.
I then switched the oven to broil and broiled for another 10 minutes to give the top a little crisp.

Steamy, yummy and so simple.

My simple dessert:
Carmel & an apple…yum

I am loving the color of my new fall scarf! It is pretty close to one of the colors I am using in the baby’s room.

Happy Friday!

It is starting to feel like Fall

I am not much of a baker, but every fall I get the urge to bake a few things. Today was once of those days when I wanted to do a little baking. I decided to make some homemade brownies. Nothing spectacular here, but the family really enjoyed having a special homemade treat. I used {THIS} recipe from www.allrecipes.com
