pinterest part 1

pinterest is my new obsession. i check it before i even check facebook now. i love that i can store everything i find in just one spot with a cute little picture to go along with the idea. the first then i have made from a pinterest find was a braided apple bread. pretty much it is an apple pie with bread.

delicious.

catch up....

* worked the 4th but got to go out and watch the fireworks in the splash park. they always put on a good show*

** got a new pan. made some homemade blueberry donuts. need to find a recipe to make them more like the old fashion donuts that you get at the store. but it was a fun first attempt.**

*** i have been wanting to make an oreo pizza for forever and since we were having a harry potter marathon get together, i thought it was the perfect opportunity. i copied the idea from craigos aka pizza pie cafe. made the dough and used a cream cheese frosting for the icing and add some oreos and caramel. it was delicious. it is all in the dough. we have a good recipe. i just need to make it a little thinner but it will be made again soon. ***

**** also i have discovered pinterest today. i am obsessed. i have now "pinned" all the recipes that i had saved on my computer to it and now all i want to do is search the web to find things i love so i can pin them. best idea ever!****

one word

if i had only one word to describe the events at camp today, it would be....poop.

you dont even want to know!

oh camp life.

i want s'more cookies!

haha. i crack myself up.

so at camp it has become a tradition now that i bring treats on monday. this week's treat was chosen for me and the idea of them was awesome, they are s'more cookies, but the recipe sucked. the cookies did not rise at all and no matter what i did, nothing helped. they pretty much just tasted like a regular chocolate chip cookie. if i were to make them again i would definitely just choose a different recipe and add the garnishes on top, but they still tasted fine. i just dont like that they were flat. it makes them look ugly.

it always takes forever to get to friday

...but now it is here!

so today, two girls were fighting and one told the other that she no longer wants to be her friend. this girl came up to me crying and i just started busting out laughing. she told me to stop and that just egged it on even more. i couldnt control myself. needless to say, they were friends again by the end of the day.

camp life.

i got some new stuff

so i went out shopping this weekend. got some good stuff. new flip flops. an american flag tank for the upcoming holiday. a plum colored shirt. and my favorite, plates and door knobs from anthropologie and my most favorite, a new pan. this pan serves different purposes. one side you can make little cakes and if you flip it over you can make eatable bowls. and so of course i had to try it out right away. i made sugar and chocolate chip cookie bowls and i am going to fill them with fruit topped off with whip cream. new favorite thing to make, i think so.
