Hi from the land of I-am-so-behind! I probably could have gotten some recipe posts up for you this week but I gave myself a break for a change and tried to sort of take it easy. L had a bit of a cold that I’m now recovering from (the usual cycle) and it slowed me down quite a bit. Naps were short and I just didn’t have it in me to work much at night. Instead I found myself going to sleep around 8:30 for a couple of nights. Guess I needed that, huh?
I do feel bad about skipping a week of recipe posts, though, because I actually have a pretty awesome backlog of recipes to share. My plan is to get you something awesome and blood orange-y up on Monday so stay tuned! Also waiting to be unloaded from my camera are some really, really good cookies and a spin on banana pudding. I promise they are all coming!

Thanks for the nice notes about being away from L last weekend. The 24-hours was the perfect amount of time and I was only kind of sort of heartbroken when he didn’t seem excited to see me. No biggie. Matt and I had a pretty great time eating our way around the city, though. We had lunch at The Butcher’s Daughter, snacked at Dominique Ansel and dined at Little Prince (<—-excellent).
This weekend we will all be together, though, which is good! Sunday we celebrate my Dad’s birthday (and my parents’ anniversary!!). As of now I’m not bringing any dessert, but that feels all sorts of wrong so we will see.
Now for this week’s updates….
This week’s most popular recipe/blog post:
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Lactation Cookies
Five favorite things I pinned all week:
Snickers Cupcakes from Brown Eyed Baker
Shamrock Mint Cookies from Culinary Concoctions by Peabody
No Bake S’mores Bites from A Dash of Sanity
Applesauce Carrot Cake Loaf from Baked by Rachel
Chocolate, Vanilla & Strawberry Cupcakes from We Are Not Martha
I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend!
I am looking forward to a date night in the city soon. It has been far to long since we were in town. Glad you had a good time.
awww your date day sounds perfect!! And this weekend sounds like a ton of fun too <3
