Wonderful Weekend

We had a fun and relaxing weekend! The weather surprisingly warmed up so we were able to take Pablo to the beach so he could prance around in the water. Then we had friends over for a huge bon fire accompanied by a lot of roasted marshmallows :) Then we went to a cute local farm to pick our own pumpkins and eat delicious homemade ice cream. Why do the weekends go by so fast and yet the work week goes by so slow? Not fair :( At least I am well rested to get back to work tomorrow.




Pablo loved the water! Until he sunk into the sand then he decided he was done with the beach :)




We went to Fifer's Orchards which is a cute local farm in Camden, Delaware



OMG! Best ice cream EVERRRR! I had yummy Pumpkin Chunkin and the boys had Almond Joy Ice cream. Forget Cold Stone! I think they put crack in this stuff because it is addicting





Apples or Pumpkin donuts? Tough decision.... Might as well take both :)



We are finally trying to get out and about it Delaware and we are finding all the fun and interesting things. We know it is nothing like California but while we are here we can only make the best of it. Ehhhh Delaware isn't that bad... I mean we could be in Texas :)

Sunday Breakfast






Sunday is the only day I am able to cook breakfast so I like to play around with different recipes. This Sunday I was craving hotpockets so I decided to make my own version. And of course they tasted much better :) Next time I am going to make them with chorizo and potatoes.





Ingredients
1 can Pillsbury Big and Flaky croissants
4 eggs
1 tablespoon chopped jalapenos
4 turkey sausage links chopped
1/2 cup grated Monterrey jack cheese

Directions
Preheat oven to 350. Unroll croissants. Scramble the eggs and mix with cheese, sausage, and jalapenos. Spoon mixture onto the widest part of the croissant dough and roll. Bake in oven until golden brown.

I am going to make these the next time we go on a roadtrip because it is much better than Dunkin Donuts :)


Pablo was too full from his crossiant that he needed to take a little snoozer :)

A gift I made for my husband's supervisor's b-day.






The weather has been a little chilly and gloomy the past few days so I thought I needed to spice up the day. I made a delicious and spicy pico de gallo :)

Ingredients

3 diced tomatoes
1 small onion
1/2 cup diced jalepenos
1 tablespoon cilantro
juice from 1 lemon
salt

Directions
Combine everything in a bowl and start dippin' your tortilla chips :)

It's a difficult recipe isn't it?
