Weekends, huzzah!

Hooola!

So I had a pretty mellow week I suppose. Nothing much happened until Thursday night when we had a movie night at my friends house. We all made food and brought it over. I made chocolate covered bananas, woo that is the only way I want to eat a banana now. x0 Haha I also had a bite of chocolate pizza, two pecan rolls, some pizza bites, and some spicy pickle chips. We watched the Squeakwal and Zombieland. Ahh Zombieland is like my new favorite movie evvver! ^_^

Yesterday night was fun, but so was tonight! One of my best friends got elected school Rep, so we went out to eat to celebrate! I had chicken chop suey, and it was yummmy! I was so full but when we returned to his house after stuffing our faces we shared 3 containers of ice cream with seven people. I must have eaten at least one to myself, so full now but it was worth it. ; )

I love friends and food, in the words of my music teacher: It's the best!! : P

I hope tomorrow is fun as well!

Oatmeal cookie Mondays!

Happy late Easter everyone!

I hope you all had a good day. I woke up and saw the Easter bunny had given me a new shirt, a cupcake book, and some candy. I had a lazy day but for dinner we had turkey, mashed potatoes, and rolls. Yummmmy! I also had some amazing ice cream sundaes this weekend, yay for ice cream! : )

Anywho today I really felt like baking, so I made some of my families oatmeal cookies. I kinda burned some of them, but half of them turned out nicely! I will post pictures probably tomorrow, for I am too lazy to go and get my camera right now. ; )

I hope everyone has a nice week!

Another bakesale, oh my!

Woo just got done baking for four hours! Today my choir class were bought uniforms, but we learned we have to pay the school back. Instead of paying about 50 dollars each, we are going to have a bakesale to try and earn the money! I made 2 dozen M&M cookies, 2 dozen peanut butter cookies, and 5 dozen vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting. I hope the other girls made some good stuff too so we can make all the money we need and maybe even some extra! : )

I also baked an amazing coffee cake today! Tomorrow I am having a hang out with all my best friends. We are going to make... NACHOS! Haha nope no pizza for us this week, we are broadening our horizons and making something different. We are also going to watch some movies and finally eat some coffee cake that will hopefully make Starbucks jealous! ; )

I may take some pictures of the bakesale stuff and the party food if I'm not lazy, so stay tuned!
: P

Loooove

Looong week!

Meh such a long week! Nothing much really happened though, haha. x0

I just worked on school work all week and then on Friday night my friends and I had another pizza night. We made onion and cheese pizza with cheese stuffed crust, and hickory BBQ chicken pizza. Oh my goooosh they were good! I had two pieces of each and then sat in a food coma for the rest of the night! ; ) I love our pizza/movies hang outs, they are the best!

On Saturday I helped serve food for a auction that was going on, and finally today I made some delicious brownies. They were box mix for the bottom and then had a layer of cream cheese with sugar and crushed cookies on top. They were so easy but delicious! I had two of them and a bowl of ice cream for dessert, yay for dessert!

I hope next week is full of more exciting news so I can update more!

Pizza Party and brownie cookies!

Yum yum, here are the pictures from the pizza party my friends and I had last Tuesday! (better late than never! ; P )

We made two pizzas, here is the double cheese one!

BBQ chicken pizza, yum!


He's so excited for pizza!


Four people, four slices each. Yep it was that good! : )


Soooo full! ^_^

It was a great day full of cheesy goodness, ahhh bliss!

Annnd now, here are the awesome cookies I made last night! I know it's lame, but I took a brownie mix to make the cookies. I could of made my own brownies, but it was getting late and I wanted baked goods now! They are so simple to make though. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and then take your favorite brownie mix, add one stick of softened butter, one egg, and any kind of chocolate chips you want, roll the dough into small (or large) balls, and the bake it for about 13 minutes. They are warm and gooey and taste half like a cookie and half like a brownie, awesome!


One tasty cookie!


Two cookies of doom!


Three cookies, yum!


Heaven! Warm brownie cookies smothered in ice cream!

Tasty, tasty days!

Sick, but yay for M&M Crunchy Cookies! : )

Whew what a tiring few days! On Friday and Saturday I cheered my little butt off at the basketball games, and was soooooo sick! I had the worst cold ever! I was freezing and weak feeling, but I put on a smile anyway and cheered like nothing was wrong. Then on Sunday morning I woke up feeling pretty awful, but my mom made chicken soup, which is totally like a medicine! After two big bowls of that soup plus some yummy buttery corn bread, I was feeling pretty good.

I still don't feel great, but I think a day or two more and I will be back to normal! : )

So FINALLY, I baked something, yaaaaay! Cheerleading is fund raising like crazy to get to state to compete, so we are trying to have as many bakesales as possible before we go! Here are some amazing M&M Crunchy Cookies!


(Raw dough)

You will need:

~ 1 and 1/4 cups flour
~ 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
~ 1/2 teaspoon salt
~ 1/2 cup softened butter
~ 1 cup sugar
~ 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
~ 1 egg
~ 2 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
~ 1 cup M&Ms



First:
~ In a medium bowl mix together the butter, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Next, mix in the egg.

Second:
~ Slowly mix in the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Third:
~ Stir in the Rice Krispies and the M&Ms

Fourth:
~ Drop spoonful balls onto a non stick cookie sheet, and bake for about 15 minutes.

Fifth:
~ Cool and enjoy! : )



These are the best M&M cookies in my opinion! Have a nice night and I hope I recover soon! Maybe I need another cookie! : P

Parties, Lazy Sundays, and nachos: Oh my!

Well I didn't make anything for my friend on Friday, because I was told she was on a diet! I was like shoooot, I don't want to tempt her, so I went on over and she tells me she is on a diet... on Monday! x0

We made homemade pizzas, which were one of the best pizzas I have ever tasted! It was so cheesy and good, but I burnt the pineapple one we also made, whoops! Oh well it's not like I like pineapple. XP After we ate our pizza we watched a few movies and then proceeded to eat large ice cream sundaes. Yes I do eat ice cream a lot. x0

Anywho, on Sunday my mom and I just had a lazy day around the house watching the Food Network and the Olympics while cleaning up the kitchen a bit. It was also pretty warm out, so we BBQ some chicken and made yellow rice. It was so tasty that for dinner tonight I had a whole plate of it with some great nachos as well! Yummy!

On another note, isn't this the cutest necklace ever? Hint, hint!! : )


Sorry I haven't really posted much food yet, been really busy. In about three weeks I will have a lot more time for a while, but hopefully I post anyway! ^_^

Love
