Friday! Woot Woot! I ready for a pretty relaxing weekend. I have some crafty plans in the works and I’m hoping to get in some good workouts to keep trying out my New Rules of Lifting for Women book. My thighs are a little sore from the first go round, but its that good kind of pain. You know what I mean.
The camera is still out of service, so this week I decided to give Lauren’s Fill In The Blank Friday from The Little Things We Do a try. This one was a travel edition and that seemed to be right up my alley.
1. My favorite place i’ve ever traveled to is a tie between Ireland and Half Moon Cay. I loved going to the place where my family is from and going to a place WITH my family.
2. Alaska is somewhere I’d love to go someday.
3. I pass the time on a plane (or bus, or car ride or train) by reading on my Kindly and napping. Usually I try to do the first one, but end up doing the second. I also like to make up stories in my head about the people around me.
4. My three must-haves when I travel are my iPhone , my camera and earphones/plugs.
5. My favorite travel companion is another tie but between The Scientist and My Dad .
6. The craziest thing that ever happened to me while traveling is when on my first day in London I was invited to go to Paris that weekend by some people I just met. I went. Hello After School Special! Not smart, but it was fun!(Don’t worry. I brought a friend.)
7. The most exotic food I’ve ever tried while traveling is haggis is Scotland. Nope. Not again. 
8. If I could live anywhere else, I’d live in Atlanta. I’m desperate to get back to the South and be closer to my family, but still live in a busy city. This is just a realistic place. If I was dreaming I would live in London.
9. I have been to 31 states in the U.S.
Have a great day!

SNOW! The cold white fluffy stuff is no longer on the ground and Korky couldn’t be happier. This past Saturday it was a winter wonderland and Korky was not a happy camper. Here is the tale (or tail!) of a dog’s quest to enjoy his nap in a warm bed.
“Come on. Lets go inside. I’m tired and cold. We have been out here for 3 minutes already.”
“Mom, can we please go inside? We can snuggle.”
“No seriously. Can we PLEASE go inside?”
“OK LADY! I’m NOT kidding! Take me inside!”
“Fine. I’m going in with or without you. One way or another I’m done.”
“Nap time! I’ve found my spot so don’t mess with it.”
“ACK! Why are you touching my paws? I’m not going out again!”
“Ok, if I can’t see you then you can’t see me. Problem solved.”
“On second thought…I better keep an eye on you Mom. No funny business.”

Good morning friends! I accidentally made these Pancake Muffins the other day for brunch and it was quite the happy event. Who doesn’t love a happy accident? Delish and portable. The two key factors in a great breakfast during the week.
Pancake Muffins!
Ok, lets put this little caveat out there before I tell you how these are made. I went the super easy route. You can go the much better route and do the healthier wheat version of these or even make your own pancake mix. I used what I had on hand which is possibly not the healthiest version, but is certainly the easiest.
In the Mix (Makes 4):
-1 cup Hungry Jack Easy Pack Pancake Mix (or whatever pancake mix you have on hand)
-4 Aidells Chicken & Apple Sausage Minis
Directions
*Measure out 1/4 cup of pancake mix for each muffin you want to make. For this time around I wanted four, so 1 cup of mix. Mix in water, about 1/4 cup, to create a normal pancake batter consistency.
*Spray muffin tin with cooking spray and evenly measure out batter into tins.
*Slice 1 mini sausage in half and press into the center of each muffin.
*Bake for 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees.
Easy peasy! They come out light, fluffy, and with a little surprise inside! I think that some people might even call these Pigs in a Blanket-ish.
Drizzle a little maple syrup across the top and enjoy! These are great the next day too. Honestly, I’m not sure how well they freeze. They haven’t lasted that long at my house.
Thanks for the condolences for my camera and compliments on the hair. I had lots of questions about the extensions so I’m working on a post to share some info on them including where I got mine, how to put them in, how to style them, and my first thoughts on them. Sound good? Good!
Pancakes, Waffles or French Toast?
