Harry Potter Birthday!

Today is the hub's birthday!

He is a HUGE Harry Potter fan, so along with a Kindle complete with the Harry Potter Cook Book...

I made matching shirts for him and the soon to be baby using this awesome tutorial by Rae Gun Ramblings!

We made Butterbeer... okay, Derek made butterbeer. I was banned from the kitchen

He knows my track record...

It's too bad his Hogwarts Acceptance Letter hasn't arrived yet. He's gonna love it...

I used this awesome tutorial by Oh Mishka. 

I hope he loved his Birthday as much as I loved planning it!

EASY Chicken Sour Cream Enchiladas

I am all about easy

And my cooking abilities...not great.

But these my friends are EASY

And when I make them, my husband thinks I'm flippin Betty Crocker. 

Yeah. They're that good.

I usually make them before church, and put them in the oven afterwards...

Feeling Hot Hot Hot!

So I've been cutting my own hair for the past 7 years...

Usually I cut my hair with my scrapbooking scissors. 

It looks TERRIBLE every time I do it...

but for some reason I always think I've suddenly developed mad hair cutting skills
Not so. 

Well...I finally got sick and tired of my lifeless hair, and shelled out the 50 bucks for a "real" hair cut!

Let me tell you...I would have paid 100 bucks if I had known my hair could look this good!!

Check me out!

SSSSSSSS..... I'm SMOKIN!

Thank you so much Jill from Elle Marie... you rock my world. 

Paper cutters can cut more than paper....

Remind me never to leave a paper cutter blade on the floor
while cleaning out my crafting dresser

And also that we need to buy some grown up band-aids....

Being 6 Months Pregnant....

Being 6 months pregnant means a lot of things

...it means changing clothes multiple times a day from "sneezing accidents"

...it means bawling at the movies Snow Dogs and Old School

...it means wearing the same pants 10 days in a row because they actually fit. 

...it means sleeping with every single pillow in the house... plus some couch cushions. 

But you know the best thing it means?

It means this baby is getting closer to joining our crazy family.

I can't wait to meet her. 

I hope she likes crazy. 

Angel Food Delight

Fooooood. Fooooooooooooood....

I love you so much.... in a very unhealthy way. 

My husband was trying to come up with a good date idea yesterday

I told him, that unless it involved food, I didn't want anything to do with it. 

Addiction anyone?

This is one of my favorite food addictions...

because while you're eating it, you don't feel like you're getting fat...

so you eat more...and more....and more....

and pretty soon your 5 notches out on your belt. 

Now that's what I call DELICIOUS!

Angel Food Delight

because I don't have beautiful dishware!

Ingredients

Box of Angel Food Cake

Frozen Berries (strawberries are the best)

Large box of Jello (Sugar free works great)

2 Tubs of whipped topping (I used light)

Directions

Cook the Angel Food cake according to the box

Cook Jello, using 1/2 the water it calls for

Mix the frozen berries into the jello before you put it in the fridge. 

Break up the Angel Food cake into small cubes (really, I just tore it up with my hands...who can tell the difference?), and place 1/3 of them at the bottom of your bowl. Do a layer of jello/berries, then a layer of whipped cream. 

Repeat these layers until you've used all of your cake/jello/whipped cream. Top with the remaining whipped cream.

Yep. That's it. I know. SOOO fancy.
