Today was just a day for bacon.

Among a list of many things I accomplished today, making Maple-Bacon Cupcakes & Loaded Baked Potato Salad were by far the best.

SNICKERS Cake:

Chocolate Coffee Cake, Caramel Peanut Frosting, Covered in Chocolate Ganache and Caramel Sauce, and Topped with Peanuts.

I put the whole cake in the freezer when I was done for about an hour before serving...DELICIOUS!

Crock Pot Minestrone

Be warned! This recipe is SO easy and packed FULL of protein, you'll DEFINITELY be making it more than once!

What I love most about recipes like this is the leniency to add in whatever veggies and legumes you like and leave out the ones you don't. If I had spinach, for example, I definitely would have added it in here!

Here's my list of ingredients for this particular batch:

28oz Crushed or Diced Tomatoes

2 cups Chicken Broth

1 cup Water

15oz Garbanzo Beans -drained; rinsed

15oz Kidney Beans -drained; rinsed

15oz Peas -drained

1 cup cooked Lentils -drained; rinsed

1 cup cooked penne

1/2 Onion -chopped

2 Celery Stalks - chopped

1 cup chopped Carrots

1 Green Pepper - chopped

3 tsp Garlic Salt

1 tsp Basil

Black Pepper to taste

This is good for lunch or dinner after a grueling session at the gym for a good & healthy protein restock for weak muscles. This exact recipe has over 50 grams of protein!

What To Do:

Combine all ingredients in crock pot EXCEPT penne,

Set on low 8 hours.

Cook penne & add to soup just before serving.

Enjoy!

"PINK! Oh, and ZEBRAS....and peace signs."

.....I think I did a pretty good job (: And she did too!

Beer Update & Staying Busy

Hello Everyone!

It surely has been a while since I've posted some new things and I apologize. I broke my camera & really lost track of the time! I plan on posting some new things in the very near future and fixing up the site in the process.

*UPDATE on the home brew: It turned out AWESOME!!

I hope to do another in the future, maybe start buying bulk grains & such and really doing to whole process from scratch rather than a kit since thats the best way to make your money (;
