Remember when Rebecca Black sang that song, *Friday*

I wonder why they haven’t done a *Monday* version

Last week was crazy, good, but crazy!

Princess perfected her back walkover (WOOT!)

I catered a wedding shower for a neighbor’s cousin.

(un) related – God Bless you and keep you if you do catering out of your home, and holy cow how do you do it???!!!

Related.. I have rediscovered my love for pimento cheese and made the MOST AMAZING PIMENTO CHEESE EVER! posted a picture of it on instagram and learned that y’all are either bananas crazy about Pimiento cheese, or you hate it.

I cannot wait to share the recipe with y’all!

Last week, I delved into the world of vegetarian  with chipotles and black beans and pumpkin…

and then I played around with pumpkin a little bit more, and topped it off with some turbinado sugar….

and then I fell deep into the rabbit hole of the deliciousness that y’all were sharing, and I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to make first!

These Crispy Spider Web Funnel Cakes were the first to catch my eye, and had me hollerin’ at Burgh Baby on Twitter, because she is the ultimate spork and funnel cake consumer.  I couldn’t resist the clever recipe, or the gorgeous lighting and set up.

The lighting, texture and the alluring cinnamon and yogurt drizzle drew me to these Skinny Mini Cinnamon Breakfast Casseroles from Design Eat Repeat, and I’m not saying that I’ve bookmarked the page and revisited it 12 or 26 times…. but… well.. just look at the picture, y’all.

I try to give thanks every day.  Whether it’s thanking God for his grace, thanking my children for being themselves, thanking my husband for loving me and making me better, or telling a stranger thank you for holding a door, making me smile…. no matter what it is, I try to find something to be thankful for as often as I can.

I’ve seen Thanksgiving Thankful rolls all over the internet for the past few years, but I love the Sweet Potato Gratitude Rolls version that the adorable Life With The Crust Off shared this past week.

Deliciousness combined with thankfulness, and precious family time…

is there anything better?

Princess and Monkey are rested from their Bye Weeks and were eager to choose their recipes!

Princess chose these yummy, Fall inspired Easy Pumpkin Spice Lattes from A Mitten Full of Savings, because, and I quote:   “She serves them in owl mugs and adds sprinkles of flavor on top of whipped topping, mom.  she wins”
