Happy Friday, Friends!

We hope you had a great week.  I have spent all week at an Emerging Leaders camp… It’s a class at my school and we have to attend a camp over the summer at a nearby college. It was my first wake-up call letting me know the scary fact that school is right around the corner. 🙁 I don’t know what I’m going to do when I can’t cook and blog alllll day long!

We don’t have much on the schedule for this weekend except some relaxing… finally! I feel like summer is almost over and I haven’t even gotten to fully relax yet!

And now it’s time for my favorite part of the week – a round up of all my current favorite things from Pinterest! Enjoy 🙂

P.S. Come pin with us!!! 🙂

Favorite forkful: Strawberry, Bacon, and Feta Salad. In the summer the only thing I crave is a “bucket-size” salad with a huge fork … and on this particular summer day, I’m craving this salad with a huge forkful of these flavors.

Favorite for kids: Snow cone Cupcakes. I saw these the other day and I could not stop admiring them! How cute are these cupcakes? So genius!

Favorite frozen explosion: Twix Ice Cream Pie. Not only does this pie look SO good, but it’s seems so easy to make.Plus how can I deny anything with sprinkles?

Favorite instagram: We just got an instagram and we are OBSESSED. I can’t wait to see what the future holds… and if the future has an engagement in store, then I need to remember this picture idea… can’t get over how adorable this is!

Favorite idea: The little things. All the little things you never want to forget! I’m in love with this!!

Favorite for the future: Laundry room with folding counter, simple cabinets and TV to watch while folding and ironing. Perfection.

Favorite tip: Broccoli Four Ways. I grew up eating roasted broccoli with cheesy sauce all the time and we still do to this day. I can’t wait to try these other methods of cooking broccoli.

Favorite upgrade: Pimento Cheese Burgers. A plain burger taken to a new level with the addition of a pimento cheese mixture… creamy, gooey goodness.

Favorite bite: Orange Creamsicle Muddy Buddies. This sounds so yummy, easy and addicting!

Favorite gluten-free sugar fix: Gluten-Free Caramel-Centered Chocolate Chip Cookies. It doesn’t get any better than a delicious recipe that only required two ingredients.

Favorite fashion: Little Black Dress. This dress would be perfect for any body type. Slimming and trendy – love!

Favorite inspiration: “Your time as a catepillar has expired. Your wings are ready.” This quote makes me want to get up and do something productive with my day.

Favorite twist: Banana Cornbread with Cinnamon Creamed Honey. The perfect use for those over-ripe bananas that are currently staring at me from the kitchen counter. And that cinnamon creamed honey? Holy yum.

Favorite devour: Simple Summertime Basil Chicken Curry Coconut. This curry looks perfect! I love basil instead of cilantro in curry.

Favorite party in my mouth: Seven Layer Ice Cream Pie. Forget the bars… it’s all about the pie now!
