Pretty cake

cake courtesy of here...check it out, she makes some cute cakes!

Isn't this such a pretty yet simple cake?! We were originally planning on (well I was) a plain white cake with maybe some pearl decorations on it. Since I've seen some cute cakes with black (one of our colors) bands around the tiers...I may be leaning towards something different like that. Just an idea. And I found this cake and it looks so yummy and pretty! Minus the pink flowers...

Pancake Puffs

I want to let you in on a little secret...

I'm a sucker for any kind of anything you want to sell me. Don't tell the telemarketers that though!

Just kidding, I get kind of annoyed with the telemarketers, so I just don't answer our phone when they call. Ryan on the other hand will answer and pretend like he is someone else (ranging anywhere from an old man to a dorky kid!). It's actually quite funny and adds some entertainment. You've really got to hear it sometime.

Back to the topic at hand, I somehow came across a commercial or something for the Pancake Puff maker and I thought that I had to have it! I did this before with the Magic Bullet before. I watched an informercial multiple times and knew that I had seen it at Walgreens. So, the Mister and I walked to Walgreens and bought it. I haven't tried making many things with it, but it does make a mean chocolate malt!

Well, I REALLY wanted the Pancake Puff maker and it was like $20 cheaper at Walgreens! I bought it! I just can't wait to use it!

You can make anything you can think of in it; plain 'ole pancake puffs, brownie puffs, pizza puffs, cornbread puffs...the possibilities are endless! It even came with a little injector to fill with jellies, jams, puddings, etc. You get the idea, right?!

I will post some pics of when we try it out....which may or may not be this Sunday. We say it now, but we all know things can change!

Coffee malt

I don't know about you, but I'm a huge fan of coffee. HUGE!

I also love anything sweet...icecream, malts, etc...

I happened to drop on by to Blissfully Domestic (good blog for ideas...go read it...NOW!) to find they had posted a recipe for Coffee Malts!

YUM-O!!!




Have you ever had a Jamocha Shake from Arby's? Well that's what it's like. And if you haven't, well then you're missing out on something wonderful in your life! Go HERE if you want the recipe...I think I may have to make this tomorrow...you know, since it's super hot and muggy out, yeah, that's why I'll have to make it!!!
