Peanut Butter Popcorn... YUM!

Since I tried to make a batch of milk chocolate brownies earlier today and wasn't too impressed... I figured I should attempt another little snack! Although, my fiance LOVED the brownies... go figure, haha! Since I was already on this website for my last blog, I stumbled upon this delicious looking recipe: (Not my photo, but they should turn out just like this.)
I got this photo from this website which has this delicious recipe so click here for the details! This is a snack for those who have a sweet-tooth. It needs just your regular microwavable popcorn, peanut butter, marshmallows, butter, and brown sugar. The total time to make this should take just 15 minutes! Enjoy!

Bacon and Lil' Smokies Recipe!

I couldn't resist but to share this recipe when I had a taste of my in-laws freshly baked bacon and lil' smokies! It was a hit, especially with the men which is no wonder because it includes BACON! I'm baking my first batch tonight, but blogging before hand so this is not a photo of my work. However, if all goes as planned... they should turn out just like this:

 
They are a great appetizer but tonight I'm feeling a little under the weather so I'm going to try to just cook them with some cheesy scalloped potatoes and veggies and call it good. Please click here for a link to a great website which shows you this super easy recipe! It only takes 30 minutes to make these little mouth watering appetizers so be sure to give it a try!!

Prepping to snowboard

As a Minnesotan, if you are going to get a little enjoyment out of winter, you should try taking up a sport! My fiance snowboards every winter and I have an interest in it as well. We are joining some friends for a little snowboarding trip! I'm excited because I haven't went in a decade. I can already picture myself face planting right away, haha! I'm pretty sure I will have to learn all over again. I never actually went to a resort. I only went boarding where ever my friends and I could find a decent hill.
In order to make sure I have everything I'll need, I recently went to Zumiez and bought a pair of black and purple Dragon goggles. I used some christmas money to purchase a Columbia coat designed to hold up in the cold/wet snow. I also got water repellent gloves made by Columbia as well. Last winter American Eagle Outfitters sold hear muffs which came with headphones inside them. Such a great idea! I plan to bring those as well. I'd show a link, but I couldn't find them for American Eagle this season. If anyone knows where else you can purchase earmuffs as headphones, please comment below =)
