Apple-Pecan Sticky Buns

 

OMG who doesn’t love sticky buns?!  I am a huge fan.  Well the other day my friend Kelsey and I decided to make them for brunch and it was wonderful.  I am so glad we had these.  They were fabulous!

Apple Dutch Baby

This was fantastic.  I am going to have so many more dutch babies in the future!  :)  And the apples in this; amazing!  Drenched in brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.  Perfection!

Asian-Marinated Baked Chicken

Apparently I send very business like texts.  I get to the point.  Texting takes too much work to be frilly.  Who, what, where, when and why was it funny?  Those are normally the questions answered by my texts.

Cinnamon Pecan Coffee Cake

I had a brunch!!!  It was so much fun!!  OMG, even in my tiny apartment.  We were tight, but we all fit.  Even with the cats.  That is a picture of everyone in my kitchen.  According to my mom, a one butt kitchen!  Believe me, you do not want to cook with all those people in the kitchen.  I don’t think you could move!

#Sunday Supper: Delicious BBQ Ribs

#SundaySupper is a group of bloggers who are on a mission to bring back supper around the family table in every home.  This week the theme is cooking with wine.

I love wine!!  When the Sunday Supper crew decided to do cooking with wine as their theme I was thrilled!

I searched online for recipes with wine.  I eventually stumbled upon a recipe for bbq ribs.  I was so excited!  I have never made ribs.

#SundaySupper: Juicy Lucy and Blueberry Ketchup

I love Juicy Lucys!!  They are hamburgers with cheese in the middle!!  Juicy Lucys are a hometown original!  Matt’s Bar in Minneapolis takes credit for the first one.  And be careful eating your Juicy Lucy, because that cheese can burn you!!

#SundaySupper White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

Today is my first day participating in #Sunday Supper.  I am super excited!!

My dad lives 4 hours away from me.  And I do not have time right now to visit.  Therefore, I wanted to make something that I could mail to him.  Which limits my options quite a bit.  However, my dad loves cookies so I went with that.  And I have never made macadamia nut cookies, so I thought that would be super fun.

Foodie Pen Pal: Tunnel of Fudge Redux

FOODIE PEN PAL TIME!!!  I love getting my foodie pen pal package.  I really enjoy making the package.  It is all so much fun and so yummy!!

These are all the goodies I received from the amazing Amanda!  I loved all the treats and pasta!  She also sent me a recipe for Chocolate Cake and my oh my it was intense!! A very dark chocolate cake, I needed ice cream with it and then it was amazing!!

Roasted Vegetables with Cocoa Spice Rub

This was really good!  My friend Kelzee made it.  Nobody could guess the secret ingredient, cocoa powder.  I could not taste the cocoa powder, but the whole combinations of spices tasted really good.  I totally recommend trying this.  I am going to make this when I get a chance.  The vegetables she used was just what she had on hand.  I really liked the variety.

#pastalove Spicy Parmesan Shrimp Skillet

May is #pastalove month!  Here is the link to the original post for the blog hop.  I did the #berrylove, #greenlove, #chocolatelove blog hop before.

This is super yummy.  It definitely has a kick, but is not very spicy.  I really like shrimp and have not had it for what feels like a really long time now.  This hit the spot!
