May Life Serve You CHEESE!

I have a really 'cheesy' picture of my boyfriend and i on my Facebook profile. I'm in love with this photo, as it's SO CUTE!  One of my friends, Tim, said this to me as a comment below the photo and i knew it had to be my next colored drawing.

It rings true for so many things for me. I love cheesy; photos, jokes, dancing, etc etc... and i [truly] hope, i have a lifetime of the finest cheese

 

In case you wanted to see it ^^^ Here it is. Cheeeeesey! I love it! It was taken by the boy on my birth of days. What a happy day that was. [so blessed!]

Hope you have an inspired cheese flavored day!

Foodie Friday - Home Made Brusetta

My friends came over on Tuesday night for craft/cooking night. We made fresh brusettta. Twas delicious!

Ingredients:

French Bread
Cherry Tomatoes
Mozzarella cheese
Oil and Vinegar

We got our produce and cheese from Whole foods and our bread from Publix.

First cut thick slices of fresh french bread.
Dice the Mozzarella and cut the cherry tomatoes in two.
Fill the bottom of a bowl with vinegar.
Add cheese and tomatoes to the bowl of vinegar.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Spread bread slices on a cookie sheet.
Add a decent amount of the cheese/tomatoes to each slice of bread
Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the bread is crunchy and cheese is brown'd.
And ta-da! Deeelicious!
As you can see, WE really liked it! :p


What fun things have you cooked this week?

Food and Love to you dear friends!

Foodie Friday! - Baked Brie Bread Bowl.


Say that four times fast!!!

Oh...Brie Bread Bowl...you were a wonderfully horrible thing.

It's so simple, i highly recommend it! But i'm giving you a fair warning. Make sure to invite MANY friends over when you make this. It was SO delicious that my friend Jenny and I DEVOURED it. I said it friends, you have been WARNED! :)


Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.

We were searching for Sour Dough round loaf, but found a "semi-sour dough" variety. [i found it to be very good. my friends said it was so-so] First step is to cut out a lid/top of the bread.

Hallow out a decent amount from the inside of the bread to make...ta da! a bowl. Put a wrapped brie round inside the "bread bowl". Add preserves on top. We used Current preserves, but apricot should be very good as well. We added pecans on top as well, but they are purely optional. Then put the bread "lid" on top. Cover it in tin foil and put on a cookie sheet.

Now...i just realized, i have NO idea how long we put that in there for. Ha! I think it was 20 mins. I will have to ask my friend Jenny... Either way, the bread should be a little crispy and the brie should be gooey.


I mean really...how could you NOT want to eat that?? Mmm...


Oh!
I forgot a step. The KEY to this dish... The essence that makes it SO delightful is a secret i will share with you... Make sure to invite your friend over to cook, and then have him sleep on the floor with his legs on the couch...kind of like THIS.


Somehow my friend Chip found this very comfortable. He missed out on not only cooking this delicious dish, BUT he missed out on eating it too. lol

I wonder how long it will be before Chip notices i posted this picture of him on here. I'll keep you posted. ;)

Have a wonderful friday!
Peace, love and PBJ,

One Year Ago Today...

We ate like Queens! I got a veggie and tofu platter and Mandy got some meats and veggies.



AND THEN.....

I hope you had a delicious food filled day!
Smiles and Blessings to YOU!

New Pretties! New Bloggin'!

Okay folks! It's time...i am going to be a better blogger, for realz! I know I've said this over and over, but now i should have more time since they aren't giving me enough hours at work. :) At least the bright side to THAT is that i have no excuse now!

To be honest, I've been so inspired by all of your lovely blogs, that i didn't want to post if i didn't have something uniquely splendid, but i think I'm just going to go with the flow and hopefully inspire you the same way you inspire me!!

With the new ambition to blog, i have been creating up a storm which has been brilliant!

Picnics, Farmers Markets and a Happy Saturday.



I went on a picnic a couple weekends ago. First we went to the Farmers Market (yay!) and bought some delicious foods.

I tried my first Arnold Palmer which was STELLAR! We played our guitars, ate delicious food and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Twas lovely.

The squirels are really cocky. They litterally come RIGHT up to you to steal you're food.

Go Squirel Go!

This one was a run away. :) We did give him a cherry eventually.

Picnic Goodness

MMM....So yummy!



I love acousitc guitars...PLUS they travel well, so you can bring them to parks.



And sometimes we've had such lovely weather...when it's not raining. Welcome to Florida! It's either gorgeous or horrid outside.

All in all it was a nice afternoon. I seriously LOVE Farmers Markets so it's always a treat to visit them!
