Baby Cakes.

Started feeding this 5 1/2 month old rice cereal.
She's not too fond of it.
She spits it out and puckers her lips out so i can't give her anymore.
I can't blame her, i wouldn't eat the stuff either.
Moving on to veggies... going to try to make my own baby food this time around.
Got this for Christmas, excited to try it out.
Any suggestions are welcomed.

One hundred and ten.

Coffee Cake.

disclaimer: in case you are not familiar with coffee cake, it contains no coffee, it's name comes from the fact that it is most commonly eaten with a cup of coffee... however, milk, hot chocolate or oj is also a good beverage with this delectable cake.

One of my favorite desserts, breakfast foods, all day snack, etc.
Introduced to me by my friend Lea.
Find the recipe here.

One hundred and nine.

Recipe Club.

Our ward started a recipe club.
My friend brit and i are in charge.

We also started a blog so all can enjoy the recipes.

You can get it here.
It was mouth watering... and might i add, easy to make!

One hundred and eight.

Revolution.

You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be all right all right, all right

All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love, is all you need.
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love is all you need.

Um... i think it's safe to say, that i LOVE the Beatles!

We will be back, i promise.
