strawberry soup?

Have you ever heard of Strawberry soup??? Chances are you havent but when I saw the recipe, I though I must try!

I know that looks nasty but just trust me! Its yum! You put in about 2 cups of strawberries, 1 cup of orange juice. 1 cup of vanilla yogurt and a Teaspoon of vanilla. then blend blend blend! In the end, I added some ice to make the "soup" thicker.
I think next time we will just stick our soup in a glass with an umbrella and call it good!

It wasnt super duper sweet like a smoothy, just refreshing. We will be trying this one again.

Im trying to copycat!

Ever heard of the bun basket? Its this great place in Fruit Heights that sells cinnamon rolls and sandwiches. They have these great breads that are stuffed with meat and cheese and I thought it has to be simple to copy cat!

These photos didnt load in order but you get the point. I rolled up the dough and brushed them with egg wash before I baked them.

As far as I could tell, this is what they use at the Bun Basket

My way of cheating! haha

yum yum, arm lickin good!

Are you stuck in a cooking rut?? It seems like the never ending battle.... What the heck is for dinner tonight? Sigh....

I found some ingredients that I had in the pantry along with some Asian ingredients in the fridge. We made a marinade for the pork and let it rest for about 3 hours.

We grilled the pork ribs and reduced the sauce. It was delish!

Draper my old home!

Would you dare do this? I have always thought that I might try it, well that is until I watched how it was done!

I think that I will stay put!

This was in Draper up on the Mountain. A week before we moved, I decided I would drive up and watch how it is done! I have to admit, it was fascinating!

happy birthday!!

Have you ever wanted to be just like your parents? Well, I will never even come close but I sure want to try. Have you ever met someone who rarely thinks of their needs before they make sure that others are comfortable? My dad (and mom) are my best friends and I am proud to call them parents. Today is my dads birthday and I just want to say how much I love him and hope that he has the best day ever.

Doesnt the snow just make you want to cuddle under a blanket by the fireplace and sip hot cocoa? Outside the air is crisp, the lawn is covered in white and all I want to do is sit at home in my pj's and shop online...
