The big red ball.

Bahahaha!

The greatest thing is when you are driving home at 1am and you have to slam on your breaks because there is a massive, red, exercise ball bouncing through the streets!

Silly wind!
You are having waaay too much fun!

Love my random life!

Scrumptious Sundays:Lawn Mower Cupcakes, Cinnamon French Toast Bake, & Avocado Salsa

Ookay.

I hope this makes up for last weeks lack of a Scrumptious Sunday, since I have not just 1.. not just 2.. but I have 3 dishes to show ya!!

So to start off, my lovely work was having a Grass Cut Season Kickoff BBQ. I have to elaborate a little since I haven't mentioned much about my job. I work for an awesome company that works with bank owned homes helping them keep the properties kept up and clean so they can be sold. April 1st starts when we will be getting a lot, and I mean A LOT, of grass cut work orders. I have been wanting to do all I can with my lovely mixer so I decided to make Lawn Mower cupcakes.

 

I was running short on time so I used box mixes (I know, bad Megan.) I did however, attempt a new frosting from All Recipes. It was a buttercream frosting. The only thing I did different was added green food coloring. I will say this frosting is a thinner frosting so it did not work as well with my frosting grass tip as I would have liked, but I thought it was tasty. After I frosted I assembled my candy (Hersheys Nuggets, Reeses Pieces, and Twizlers) to look like little lawn mowers. Cute, aye?


Next on my list was this delightful breakfast dish I found on from Pillsbury. 


This Cinnamon French Toast Bake was absolutely amazing!! I seriously can't wait to make it again. The only thing I didn't add were the nuts and the powdered sugar.
I loved it!!


Last but not least was a last minute toss in of ingredients, which I shall call Avocado Salsa.


My phone camera does not really show the tastiness that this was (since I took a picture when my bowl was nearing empty.) I threw the following into my food processor:
3 roma tomatoes
2 avocados
2 chiles
Some green onions
Cilantro
A few cloves of garlic
And lemon juice

It certainly helped ease my late night hunger.


I hope you all enjoyed this weeks treats!!

I need a bakery..

Okay so this post is long over due.

A couple weeks ago this beauty showed up on my porch.
I'm sure Mr. UPS thought I was crazy because I seriously came running to the door and dancing on the porch as he left.

I had talked my lovely husband into making this purchase.
I told him it would count as an anniversary and birthday gift (way out yonder in the future).
And I'm posting it so I'll have to hold true to it.

It's the KitchenAid Red Professional Mixer!!

I love it!!

Take a gander at it's glory!





Step 1. Mixer.
Step 2..A Bakery??

Have fun folks!!

Scrumptious Sundays:Saucy Asian Meatballs

Like I've previously posted, I have been randomly craving meatballs.

So when I saw a picture on Pinterest I had to look into it.

Gimme Some Oven posted a recipe for Saucy Asian Meatballs that I was mesmerized by. And let me tell you, they were delish! Check out the recipe and take a look at this scrumptious photo!
