Sunday Night's Experiment

Abbey made sure we had an "action" shot!

Amelia has to add "Cream" to everything!






I always love Sunday nights! Evan and Abbey have a tradition of making cookies or some sort of dessert...yum! Evan found a recipe on my Relief Society handout for "Microwave Mug Cake." It looked easy enough, so he wanted to try it.



They turned out really good! We would probably add more chocolate somewhere, either on top or in the actual cake. It has to be pretty sweet to make us happy! Anyway, I snapped a few pictures as Ev was dumping the cake out into bowls. Thanks for a great finish to our nice Sunday, Ev and Abbey!

Share the Love...INDEED!


All you have to do is check Kelli's blog to see what she was busy doing yesterday! Lucky for me, I was the recipient of some of the "LOVE" she's talking about! I received a text message about a treat on my porch so when I got home and opened the door...heaven was waiting!

About a month ago, Ev and I were watching Celebrity Apprentice where they did the cupcake challenge...anyone see that? Well, the entire show was dedicated to these groups making, frosting and selling cupcakes. Not sure what happened inside of me, but I think I "cracked." The only thing I could think of was cupcakes...I was almost in tears during that show because I needed a cupcake SO BADLY! Yes, it was embarrasing...I was able to calm the Craving Monster inside of me with some sugar free pudding, but it didn't fill the gigantic hole in my heart. Fast forward to yesterday...the Monster was filled and sent on its way. Happiness is mine again...haha!

THANK YOU KELLI for fulfilling my preggie treat fantasies! So far, I've only had to share ONE! Breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next two days...WAHOO!

Johnson Girls Weekend Palooza!








Ahhh...what a weekend! Sharla, April and Maria flew in on Friday (yes, a miracle since we just endured a HUGE winter storm). We went to eat at Ruby Tuesday and then just rested in the hotel suite. I went home (to keep my sweet hubby up all night with my snoring and flipping from side to side) and then I met up with the girls Saturday morning. Of course we had GRAND plans for Saturday which included shopping, movies and pedis. Well...we fit in Pedis/Manis, lunch at Del Taco and grocery shopping (for more treats!). We had a very relaxing day that ended with games and more snacking...
Sunday was the day of rest...
Monday morning, April was caught in the closed airport for part of the day (gotta love Spring Snow!). I am still not sure when she actually left Denver. By midafternoon, Sharla and Maria had perfect flying weather and then they were off to SLC.
We can't wait to be together again during Marathon Weekend coming up!
