{#73} Must Try Tuesday: August 21, 2012

I took a few weeks off from my blog to take some time to enjoy the last few weeks of summer with my family.  We start school next week so I thought this week I would share some breakfast recipes I found.  I hope to give my kids some better options for breakfast and these recipes look awesome.

Enjoy!

Whew!  VBS is over!  After weeks of hard work, stress and fun, last week was the best VBS that our church hosted.  It was high energy and the kids LOVED it!  My kids are still singing and dancing and telling me all the things they learned from the bible.

Now it is time to sit back, relax and enjoy the last few weeks of summer before school starts.  This week the theme is chocolate!  Yummy, delicious, smooth, sweet chocolate....

Enjoy!

With all of the hot weather we have been getting, we have been staying in the house, although we did spend the day at the lake a few days ago....it was so hot!  So we are mostly inside watching movies and eating lots of snacks.  We love eating popcorn while watching movies but sometimes it nice to have some "jazzed up" popcorn or even some snack mix.  So this week I thought I would feature snack foods and yummy drinks. 

Enjoy!

Anybody know where June went?  I can't believe tomorrow is July 4th!  The summer is flying by and this month is just as busy as last month.  So, this week, I thought I would share some awesome desserts that I have recently pinned.  They are look super good and I have planned to make a few of them in the next couple of weeks.

Happy 4th!

My oldest daughter is at Girl Scout camp this week and I miss her so much.  She is my calm daughter while her twin sister's are rambunctious.  I am happy that she is off on her first adventure without mommy and daddy for a whole week but it makes me realize that she is growing up fast...too fast!  I wish I could slow down time but since I can't, I will just enjoy every second that I get to spend with them.

So, this week I thought I would share all things s'mores...the ultimate camp food!  Who knew s'mores could be made in so many ways?

I think I will go make one of these to help me get through this emotional time.  Enjoy!

This week my girls are playing in a softball tournament so it is a crazy busy week.  I am starting to get more kitchen items put away which means I am closer to getting back into the kitchen to really start baking.  A few days ago, I made the most awesome squash dish, Cheesy Squash, with the abundance of squash that I am receiving.  It was so good and my family ate it up.


This week I thought I would share some great recipe finds for baked breakfast items.  These all look so SO yummy!  Enjoy!
