You'll want to eat the batter :)
  




For Christmas my father-in-law gave both of us Amazon gift cards, while Sean bought design books, I knew exactly what I wanted. A little while ago I saw The Smitten Kitchen cookbook here and totally wanted to get it, so finally it's here {and it's beautiful} and my goal is to cook every single recipe from it this year! Plus, the author has a little story to go along with every recipe :) About a week ago my lil sister and I were hanging out and decided to make the blueberry corn cake, it was SO GOOD! just perfect with a cup of tea. Can't wait to try the rest of the recipes! 

What is your favorite cookbook?

I've been meaning to share these pictures with the world for a while now, but this and that would come up {and sometimes I am just plain lazy} and they would be filed away in the back of my brain. These were a part of our 12 Dates of Christmas. By the way, did we finish the dates? no. But, did we have fun trying to? absolutely. I made dinners that I have never made before, we watched movies, cleaned the house, sledded, shopped, went on a little trip and muchmuch more....and the most important part, we made time for each other during the entire break. Seriously, not a day went by that we didn't do something together, it was pretty much the awesomest break in our school-going history. Speaking of school, it's on again! And I am finally taking classes that I am interested in and happy to get ready for :) big big smile for that! And I should also go to bed, so I can have enough energy to do my homework tomorrow and not on Sunday {another new year goal}! Goodnight all.
