Two in One....

It's no surprise that I missed a day of my little January project...but I'm blaming it on pregnancy fatigue and falling asleep on the living room floor.

January 5
So with only 3 months left before Baby C arrives I have been working on registries and man are they more difficult than I thought. Thanks to all my mother (and father) friends I put out a request for suggestions on Facebook and it was a good decision. I received SO many good suggestions!
So a big thanks to everyone.

January 6
So as much as I hate to admit it...I refused to try Nutella until I was in Italy (I mean come on...it's has to be better in Europe) and needless to say, I realized the error in my ways and have since become a big fan. I am always seeing Nutella recipes on Pinterest and have tried one before that combined my other favorite sweet treat...red velvet anything. Well I found another one and decided to try it out. I did add a couple of scoops of peanut butter to the dough...I do love the combination of anything chocolate and peanut butter :)

Half Birthday...The Aftermath

Half Birthday Treats...The Aftermath

If you are at all familiar with the school I work at, you know that one thing we do really well besides educate children of course is FOOD. We do food like you wouldn't believe. Random Snack Days, Monthly Luncheons, Munchie Day, Pinterest Day, DIP Day (my personal creation) and last but not least Birthday Buddies. Rather than celebrate a group of people's birthdays each month, we celebrate each one individually. Every person who wants to participate is assigned a "buddy" to bring treats for.

Well today was my School Birthday. I say my school birthday because not only was I blessed with a summer birthday, my half birthday happens to fall on New Year's Day so of course we are never at school to celebrate either one...but today happened to be the choice for this year.

 I must say I had a fabulous birthday buddy who brought LOTS of goodies and as you can see they were devoured...all before lunch :)

So a big thank you to my lovely birthday buddy KB and Happy Belated Half Birthday to Me!

Less Calories (?)

So......I sat on a cupcake yesterday

I would like to think that this makes it have less calories, especially since this was cupcake numero tres (I'm hoping a lot of people don't speak Spanish so they don't know what I just wrote there) plus I did have to sit through a class that night. This entails me going to Highland High School and sitting in a room by myself for three hours.....I need ALL the help I can get!

Needless to say, my peanut butter cupcakes topped with chocolate glaze, peanut butter chips and toffee were amazing and due to the consistency of the glaze, no frosting was left on my rear and was not forced to change pants before heading to class :)
