In an Insta…

I have come to the realization that my big camera does not get used very often.
In fact, most days it only gets brought out to see the new food I made.
My phone is attached to my hip and I am glad that I at least capture 
some of what goes on around us with that camera.

My phone just got “dumped” onto the computer last night,
so here is a few fun things and fun finds from the past 2 weeks.

*I love using my Kitchen Aid to shred chicken.  It is so fast and easy.
*Yes, I started baking with Pumpkin in August…can you say obsessed with the orange stuff?
*Sitting for 1 1/2 hours at volleyball practice results in things like self portraits.
*This sunset we saw driving home from vacation was amazing…of course filters help a little.

*Fun new coffee flavors from TJMaxx…and only $5 a bag.
*I wasn’t baking with peanut butter and marshmallow…just eating it by the spoonful that day:-)
*My daughter is embracing color and having fun with her outfits.  I love her quirkiness!!!
*I am on a mission to get organized.  Does anyone else always buy the $1 post its and pads at Target?

*Salted Caramel Mochas are back and I am so happy about this!!!
*I found the Cinnabon sugar and syrup at our Kroger store…french toast sticks will never be the same.
*Yay!!! The Shugar-Bakers met up again for dinner, dessert, and fun chit chats. Aimee is so fun!!!
*Michaels is the place to find cute Halloween stuff.  What should I make with these?

*I puffy heart love IKEA.  We spent Labor Day picking out new things for our living room.  Oh, and eating free food too.  Gotta love a free food special where everyone eats and they subtract the meal price from your store purchase.  Best IKEA trip so far!!!

*Football Reese’s at Sam’s Club.   I need to make something before they mysteriously disappear!!!
*Headbands and scarfs are good accessories to distract from the days I am lazy and don’t wash my hair.
*This cake…I spent all last Friday night on it.  Saturday I realized that it isn’t due until the end of September.  Apparently I can’t read…or I just felt the need to practice my cake skills.
*Thank goodness for Diet Dr. P on nights full of cake and frosting.

*Lately my mini me has been begging to bake things with me…how can I turn down that cute smile?
*The sun and the fog the other morning were kinda cool together.
*After 3 years in this house, I am finally saying goodbye to the brown panelling under our windows.
*We are learning to play a new sport this year.  Go Eagles!
Go ahead and tell me all about your week and have a super FAB weekend:-)

  2. Love these InstaFridays! :) I’m glad you and Aimee live close enough to meet up every now and then–bloggy BFF’s are super fun! And that Minnie Mouse cake is GORGEOUS! Too bad it wasn’t ready this month, but hey, at least now you have extra practice, right?? And I’m sure it tastes phenom, as most of your stuff does. Have a great weekend, lady!

  3. That Minnie Mouse cake is Too. Cute. I’m sure whomever it is for will be more than delighted. :) Sorry you’ll have to make another one.

  8. Oh my goodness, I can totally relate to this post, and I love your pictures!! :) The big camera/cell phone camera comment is so me. My husband just reminded me the other day that we have a “real” camera after watching me chase the girls with my cell phone ;) Have a great day!!

  9. stop the presses!!!! You shred chicken with your Kitchen Aid?!?! My life will never be the same. Thanks for that!!! =)

  11. Love this whole post and wishing I lived near you big seester so we could craft/bake/paint together!!! Love ya :)

  12. Love the Instagram photos and am following you! Aren’t Salted Caramel Mochas are the best? Your cake came out great too!

  13. I started with the pumpkin baking this week, so exciting! And I too love the $1 section at Target. I stopped by there today and they had a new line of coffee themed note pads, stickers, gift bags, and tins that are SUPER cute. The coffee lover in me just couldn’t resist! I bought a few extras to have on hand as gifts too. That makes the purchase more justifiable. Maybe?
