Bruce's 2nd Birthday

Monday, February 23, 2015


Sunday we celebrated our little pups 2nd birthday! Bruce spent his birthday playing in the snow, helped bake pupcakes (he licked the bowl), played with his new toys, and ended his day with a good nights sleep. I'd say he had a pretty good birthday! 

Here are a few snapshots of Bruce's birthday and the recipe for Bruce's Confetti Pupcakes. 









Bruce's Confetti Pupcakes 

Recipe 
Makes 8 pupcakes

1 cup flour 
1 tsp baking powder 
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/3 cup plain yogurt
2 tbsp vegetable oil 
2 tbsp honey
1 large egg
1/3 cup grated carrot 
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/4 cup bell peppers ( mix red & green ) 



Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin tins with 8 cupcake liners. In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder, and baking soda. In a small bowl, blend together yogurt, oil, honey, and egg, then stir in carrot, cheese, and bell peppers. Add the wet mixture to the flour and stir until mixed. 

Spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each cup about 3/4 full of the batter. Bake in oven for about 15-20 minutes ( you can check the pupcakes by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake, if it comes out clean they are done). Let pupcakes cool in tin for 5 minutes and then remove and set aside till it's time to decorate. 

Honey Peanut Butter Frosting

1/2 cup of cream cheese ( half a package )
2 tbsp peanut butter
2 tbsp honey

   It has been snowing here like crazy this past week, so I've been layering up my outfits to keep warm. I recently went through my winter scarf collection and found this amazing scarf from Hollister I picked up a couple of years ago. I love how the colors pop on this outfit!

Travel Monday { Massanutten, VA }

Sunday, February 8, 2015



Good Morning Everyone! 
Scotty and I got to take a little weekend getaway to Massanutten,Va! We visited Massanutten once before for Scotty's birthday a couple of years ago, so we were excited to go back! 
 

Here are some snapshots of our little weekend getaway to Massanutten, VA!  


We always have to make a pitstop at Tamarack! It's a great place to stop walk around, look at some local arts and crafts, and get some good food!! 



The Regal Vistas is BEAUIFUL!!! Our condo had 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, full kitchen, living room, it's own private garage, and an amazing view of the mountains!




Friday night we headed to old downtown Harrisonburg, VA for dinner at Billy Jacks Wing & Draft Shack. The food was amazing, but the dessert was my favorite part! We each tryed one of their donuts, Scotty had the The Muddy Pig  (Nutella with bacon crumbles) and I had The Dirty Duo (chocolate frosting with crushed Oreos) they were heavenly! We ended our night with a movie and a fire. 




 
Saturday was spent exploring downtown Harrisonburg, eating more good food, and enjoying some local brews and connect four at Three Notch'd Brewing Co.

    Sunday we packed up the car and headed back home to Kentucky. We made a stop at The Greenbrier for a little lunch and milkshakes at Draper's. 

    We had a wonderful and relaxing weekend getaway!
