Pinterest Challenge

So here is the deal. I was recently going through one of my Pinterest pinning binges and realized that I had pinned over 300 food items to my various food boards. My first reaction was WHOA! Then I began looking at all of the different items that I had pinned and thought, YUM!!! 

So I pitched an idea to Chase. What if we tried to make one or two new Pinterest recipes each week? It would be a great way to try new foods and add new recipes to our newlywed recipe box. Needless to say he was all for it. 

We are starting our challenge this upcoming week, but I wanted to share a pin that Chase and I tried about a month ago. I posted about it on social media and it was a big hit so I thought that I would share it here in the blogosphere. They are cinnamon roll waffles :)



First grab your ingredients and equipment. We used canned cinnamon rolls and our new portable waffle maker. 

Put the cinnamon rolls in the waffle maker. We put two in at a time, but you can put however many you want  in together. Probably not more than four though. 

Then let the waffle maker do its magic. It really is just that simple. They come out crispy and smelling so amazing. Just remember to spray your waffle maker with oil between each use so no sticking occurs. 

Add some icing to make them like cinnamon rolls, or you could add syrup to make them more like waffles. If you are feeling adventurous...add both! 

Finally, add some protein such as eggs and bacon and some good fruit and you have yourself a wonderful meal to share with family and friends.

Keep coming back to see what other yummy goodies we have come up with from the wonderful world of Pinterest. Stay warm y'all.

A Crazy Little Thing Called Love

So this happened about a week and a half ago. It was beautiful, it was everything that we had dreamed of, it was the best day of our lives thus far.

Give us a few weeks to get back into the swing of things, to unwrap gifts and write thank-you notes, to catch up on work, to get back pictures and videos, and to reflect on married life.

In the next month or so we will post a wedding and honeymoon blog series so stay tuned.

In the mean time I have a couple of great recipes to share with you all that Chase and I have stumbled upon and fell in love in with. Chase and I also want to show off our new place, and just give you a rundown of "life lately".

Keep checking in! We love when you visit.
