Snowy trees :)

Ah... what a wonderful sight! The last time I was here the trees were stark naked! It's about time!

2+2+1

Impromtu din's are the best. Though I was slightly worried about the lineup, I had full faith that we would all leave with our tummies achingly full. S made brussel sprouts n' pineapples. Might sound like an odd combo but wait til you get a chance to swirl those flavors in your mouth! H made some super creative turkey sliders. Way to go killin' off the rest of the big bird! K made butternut squash - YUMS! MCB pranced in all stylish with a bottle of pinot noir and yours truly made garlic "breath hummin'" noodles! Nothing could wrap up a better night than catching the last bits of The Amazing Race over TollHouse cookies! Once again, thank u loves for hosting :0

Guacamoleeee

For L's housewarming, I was initially going to make artichoke dip, but during the week, I came across this super easy and delish sounding guac recipe! I nearly gawked (lol) at how easy it was!

On the day of, I was having allergy issues so I commissioned K to do the dirty work while I bawsed on :-) take a lookie at the process!

Note to H: now do u believe it wasn't from TJ?! 😉

Baked Garlic Chicken!

YAY! I got to try out a new recipe this weekend and it was a success! Everyone loved it :) I only tweaked it a bit and that only made it better! I've got a few more tweaks I want to try out for next time!

Garlic noodles and crawfish galore!

The time came when we had to bid our dearest R bon voyage. So we did it the best way we knew how, with good ol' Southern crawfish! We ladies dug our fists and elbows deep into 3lbs of crawfish, 1lb shrimp, swt potaters and two heaping plates of garlic noodles. We were this close "smack thumb and forefinger together" to getting a third plate but thought better of it since we still had more than half a bag of crawfish to work through. What an exciting night of grub! 

Ps. Garlic noodles are a MUST-HAVE!

We only know who we are by what comes back to us.
