Friday Favorites

Friday snuck up on me this week! I guess that’s good though, right? It’s been a fun and busy week around here. We hung out with family for Labor Day, I had my last cake decorating class for awhile (I’m planning to write a post letting you know what I thought about the second class), and in general we’ve just been busy with every day life. Mike is fighting a never ending battle to successfully grow grass in our backyard, and I have been eating way too much sugar as usual. It’s been a good week.
And of course, it’s time for Friday Favorites! I hope you like the ones I picked this week – I can’t wait to try them all.

Nutmeg Nanny featured this chai tea ice cream (originally from Sweet Remedy ) and it looks so good! We love anything chai flavored, and this is a great recipe to transition from Summer to Fall.

Jessica from How Sweet It Is posted a brown butter garden vegetable pasta skillet. Judging from the title (and her pictures), I’m pretty sure I would love this recipe.

I’ve probably never mentioned this on the blog before, but I used to have a Hello Kitty obsession. And by “used to”, I really mean that I need to make these Hello Kitty Bow Cookies from Sweet Sugarbelle as soon as humanly possible.

I can’t believe I never thought to make cookie sticks before! How perfect do these look for dunking into a glass of milk? Thanks to My Baking Addiction for this wonderful idea.

I told myself I wasn’t going to feature so many desserts this week, but when I see recipes like this apple sheet cake with salted caramel frosting from Mother Thyme, I just can’t help myself!
That’s it for this week – have a great weekend!


Welcome! I'm Megan and it's my hope that here you'll find food that has been made with love and recipes that are shared with joy. Thanks for stopping by!

I also bookmarked some of these this week – especially those cookie sticks! Happy Friday!
