Easy Peasey Strawberry Fudge


I found a really simple, but delicious recipe while playing on Pinterest one day.  I decided to make some for my sister and I to share at work... and everyone loved it!  They couldn't believe how simple it was.  Find the recipe here and see for yourself!


You just need a bag of white baking chips and a jar of strawberry frosting.  Melt the chips according to the directions then stir in the frosting.  Pour in a lined pan, decorate it and pop it in the fridge for a couple hours.  Cut it up and enjoy!  So easy!

Friday Five

[Somewhere old... Siesta Key, Florida]
I blame the coming of March for my antsy feelings.  Yesterday, I booked my first vacation of the year!  My boyfriend and I will be jetting off to somewhere familiar... for me at least.  Siesta Key, Florida, is somewhere I go at least once a year so I'm looking forward to my trip next month.

After that, should I go to another old familiar place or somewhere new?  Thank you Pinterest, for adding to my uncertainty!

Where do you want to go?

Have a great weekend!

DIY Day: Engagement Card

A good friend of mine became engaged in January, and I made her a lovely card to share with her fiance.  I shared this awhile back and have been meaning to put this how-to post up for awhile now!

What to Wear Wednesdays: Pastels

There's something soft and romantic about pastel colors, especially when they're dusty rose or a light lavender... however, I think my favorite pastel of the season is mint.  It's reminiscent of a spring day and very beautiful in a sheer chiffon fabric.  Here's how I'd outfit it:

Corn Chowdah Mac & Cheese


The other weekend, I decided to branch out a bit and try a new recipe from Rachel Ray's Magazine (find it here).  It was a little daunting because the recipe seems really involved... but it was actually really easy!  It's definitely a must-try and I'm sure I'll be repeating it in the future.
