Friday Fun!! Friday Fun!!

What up, home skillet, it’s Friday again!!

 

This week, I was super busy doing lots of things.

 

I baked.

 

I ate.

 

I watched TV.

 

I got all up in the internets.

 

And I bought sparkly leg warmers at The Icing because apparently, deep down I am a 12 year old.

 

Let’s review.  You know, in case you missed something important.

 

I made Muddy Buddy Cookie Dough Truffles.  If fairies and unicorns got together and created the world’s most magical treat, it would probably taste like this.  So don’t miss out.

 

Are you watching American Horror yet?  Say yes say yes because OMG I need people to talk about it with me!!  I shared a recap of episode 5 on That’s What She We Said!

 

 

I also made brownies with peanut butter.  Everyone in the land likes brownies with peanut butter, it’s basically a rule of life.  Also, I talked about Daylight Savings Time.  I am a fan, my husband is not…and apparently you guys side with my husband.  TRAITORS!!!

 

 

Have you even seen such a cute diaper bag in all your born days?  Maria from Two Peas and Their Pod gave us a peek at what she totes around for Baby Pea.  Fact:  She’s way more organized that I ever was.

 

 

I made Pumpkin Bread Pudding.  See what I mean about how I’ve been busy?  I bet I practically broke a world record!!  Except if the Guinness  Book people called me I wouldn’t know because I don’t answer my phone.  I wonder if they text?

 

 

I love cute infinity scarves with flower pins, but sadly the one I wanted on Etsy was like, $40.  So I made my own for about seven bucks!!  Super easy and no sewing required. Click HERE to see how!!

 

I did lots of other stuff this week too, like helping senior citizens cross the street performing pro bono brain surgeries, but since I failed to document it by photo, you’ll have to take my word for it.

 

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

Thanks for reading!! I put lots of love into this post, so if you enjoyed it, please leave a comment, share, or subscribe. (As you can probably tell, I'm in constant need of validation, so this keeps me from questioning my self worth and crying into a box of wine) If, by some chance, you didn't enjoy the post, take it up with my personal zombie ninja.

I’m a proud housewife with a son in the second grade and a sweet baby girl. Like most little boys, my son funny and cute but a little weird. Which only makes me love him more. And the baby? Well...I know she'll sleep eventually. If I could, I would paint my life pink, sprinkle it with glitter, and give everyone a cupcake.

    LOL-you make me smile every day! I would totally buy sparkly leg warmers too, if for no other reason to hide my ‘cankles’. So LOVE the muddy buddy brownies-all I can say is that you have made me a hero in my family’s eyes! Love the pin-love AHS, (so creepy and good!), and I am pretty sure that I am going to love the pumpkin bread pudding! I mean what’s not to love?? It has carmel pecan sauce!! Have a great weekend!! =)

    Oh man, I don’t know how you have time to do pro bono brain surgeries, but I admire you for it. Maybe if you suggested some tipping, or perhaps gave your patients an etsy wish list, they can buy you scarves and leg warmers. I don’t think brain surgeons even have to do their own shopping.

    You are so incredibly funny. I am sitting here truly laughing out loud, wondering when my littles will come in and think that I have lost my mind. This Friday was already great. Reading your post just made it even better. Thank you for giving me a hearty laugh for the day!

    You crack me up! I wish had even half as much wit as you.
    Deep down, I am a 12 year old too… This week I actually bought mittens on etsy which have the string on them! Not to mention anything glittery catches my eye, and you *might* find a video of me in a tutu somewhere on my blog.
    Thanks for sharing your week; looking forward to seeing what the next one will bring.

    Oh girl! Last weekend while I was gettin my crafty on…I marathoned American Horror on my laptop…Had to wear my headphones so the 7, 10, and 14 year old could not hear (they do not like scary at all). I AM SOOO hooked! Is it so wrong to be enamored of something so well, not right? I love that it is not super gory, and not all dumb “Why would you go into the basement when the light is not working??!! ” story line you normally come across. I still don’t quite get what’s up with the maid…hope we get more info about her deal.
    Thanks for the heads up.

    Oh yeah…I went back to the post about the brownies marrying the candy bars…Barry White..snort. I forwarded that post to even all my nonc00king girlfriends. I think they all may have snorted a bit of the coffee/diet coke they were consuming. My 17 year old saw it and said, “Mom.. Please. You bake really well…don’t start ruining it with stories like these. I may not be able to eat.” (We wish! at 6’3″ he’s a bottom feeder of all food items in our house–to the point his 10 year bro has started to hide his food Lol!) My 14 year old daughter/baker and I are still giggling about the post.
