I sense a theme here...

Going along with the Christmas and Chocolate posts from earlier this week, I have to tell you all about something great I stumbled upon!

Martha Stewart Dove Chocolate Peppermint Bark

Silky Dark Chocolate with a layer of White Chocolate and Peppermint pieces.

This is why I like the holidays.

UTAH. CHOCOLATE. SHOW.

Cool new chocolates and FREE SAMPLES!!

I'm there!

Friday Nov. 20 & Saturday Nov. 21

South Towne Expo Center

Who wants to go with me?!

Look what I made!

JUST KIDDING. Martha Stewart made this.

But I really want to bake some bread! Haven't really done it before.

But maybe this will be my weekend activity.

Any tips or recipes you'd care to share?

We may be rushing things...

I really want it to be Christmas.

We put out the Christmas Candy today at the Counter.

I've already bought our tree. And some decorations.

What can I say? I'm just in the holiday spirit!

Plus, I thought this video was kinda funny - very vintage.

I wish I could ice skate like her!

One more thing, I absolutely LOVE Silk Nog.

Normally, I'm not a huge fan of Soy Milk (or Egg Nog, for that matter)

But WOW! Delicious.

Picked up my first carton of the season tonight at Target!

It's Uncanny!

Dan has a long-lost twin...

It's Wolverine.

Pretty Close, Huh?

Halloween Recap

Mostly Pictures, but I know that's what everyone really wants to see anyway.

(Costume #1 Big Bad Wolf and Lil' Red)

Isn't he handsome?!

(Costume #2 Valiant Police Chief and a Crooked Jewel Thief)

Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater's Little House

Dan's Pumpkin with quite the schnoz.

Say Ahhhhh!

I'm a happy girl with a happy pumpkin!

Look what I made!

A couple of weeks ago I was inspired by these on NieNie, and had to make my own!

I'm still having trouble figuring out the perfect spot for them, but I think they look pretty good.

Another Salt Lake Adventure

You will remember my last story about trying to travel up to Salt Lake for my class? Well, I had another adventure this week! (this one was a bit more positive).

I left early for class, and decided to make a pit stop at IKEA!!

I found this fantastic bed frame, it was 75% off and I couldn't resist! I bought it - completely unawares that I might have a difficult time transporting it home in the good ol' cruiser.

After about 20 minutes of trying to jam it in the back seat (it seemed like it would work when I was trying it), I stuck the frame in the trunk and jimmy-rigged it closed.

I couldn't possibly leave my car (and new bed frame) unattended in downtown Salt Lake, so I very carefully got back on the freeway and drove back to Provo.

That's the story and here's the photo of our very nice, new bed frame - I'd say it completes the room very nicely.

The End.

'looking for something sweet to snack on?!'

Monday, we started selling Cupcake Chic Cupcakes at the Candy Counter

(try saying that 5 times fast!)

They are so cute! I've really had a lot of fun promoting them -- it's always fun to have something new!

They are really tasty, too. I think my favorite so far is the Coconut!

Three Months -- Three Days Ago.

We didn't really do anything to celebrate -- Being together again was enough of a celebration!

But wow, we are so happy together and I can't wait to celebrate more anniversaries!

(or in this case month-iversaries)
