photo tales tuesday

after having french toast for dinner with emily the other night, i came up with a cup cake concoction that i think is pretty darn tasty!  while we ate our french toast, it made me think of IHOP's stuffed french toast!  and i came up with breakfast for dessert!

 you can find the recipe for stuffed french toast cupcakes @ my other blog The Bedtime Baker

i'm linking up with beth @ laugh until you cry

some bits and pieces

*the kids are on "summer break".  thank GOD for extended school year programs!  david goes back in 8 days.  emily in 12.  yes, i'm counting.

*i'm also counting down the days 'til our vacation in august!  we're off to michigan to visit my uncle and aunt.  its going to be, approx, a 13 hr car ride.  pray for us. 

*i turned 30 in april, and in the last 2 1/2 months, my face has broken out like i'm a 16 year old.  WTF?!  trying everything to remedy the situation.

*seriously considering starting a mobile bakery.  just need funds.  and a truck.  this could take a while.

*david is going on a sleep over to grandma and grandpa's house for the weekend.(doing the happy dance internally)  emily and i will shop.(will do the happy dance down the isles of target with emily)

*hubs is still working like crazy.  the money is helping.  i miss him.

*my sissy and i are planning a sleepover.  sangria, sewing, and baked goods will likely be involved. 

*working out regularly again.

*drinking my 8 cups of water daily.

*still hanging on to the last 10lbs.  i'm close to just saying eff it...eat the cake and work out.  i'm good with a snug size 8. 

*my tomatoes plants are getting bigger.  i can almost taste the sammiches. 

*starting a new quilt tonight.  even though i have three that need to be finished.

so that's about it.
