crock pot orange chicken.

Not too bad!  A little sweet for my liking, but I think next time (yes - one I'll make again!!) I'll half the orange juice and add more balsamic vinegar.  

Here is the original recipe.

freaking amazing.  

plain yogurt, funfetti cake mix, and cool whip.  My kids are DEVOURING fruit like I've never seen {EVER} before.  This is definitely a keeper!!  

Find the original recipe here.  I halved all ingredients so I could put into a little bowl with a lid in the fridge to be able to munch on. :)  Also, when you cut the fruit, make sure you cut them in pretty good sized chunks.  The dip is heavy so little pieces don't work very well.

I'm kinda getting into trying new recipes.  It also helps that I'm in a Facebook group that challenges you to ACTUALLY TRY something you've pinned weekly. 

Here's my effort for week 1.

I say effort because I was not impressed with the meal.  When I first tasted it, it was ok.  As I kept eating it, it was not.  My husband and son liked it - my 2yr old did not.  Other friends have tried this and have loved it so it definitely comes down to a matter of opinion!  

You can find the entire recipe here @ Chef in Training.

addiction = creativity.

I admit it.  I'm addicted to Pinterest.  Is there a support group for this??

I came across this cute little weekly planner via this website:

It's a collage of picture frames that you use a dry erase marker on the glass to write your plans on!  Genius!

And decided I needed to make my own.  Here's what I ended up with:

{LOVED} making this!
