Well, I’m still in the midst of writing up my glamping recap, you guys. Sorry for the delay! I’ve been working on organizing all of my photos, but on top of having two nights in a row of softball games over here (I’m so excited to be back after taking last season off!), and a bunch of other stuff keeping me busy, I’m a bit behind the game. Hey, such is life, right?
So last night as I was going through a bunch of my photos on my iPhone, I found a bunch of food photos that never made it to a post and thought they’d be fun to share. Although, knowing me and my scatterbrain, I wouldn’t be surprised if I have already shared at least one of these. And if that’s the case, please feel free to call me out on it.
One of my co-workers made the most amazing breakfast pizza a couple of weeks ago. It had all sorts of peppers, onions, and bacon. SO good.
Starbucks has also been in my life a bit more than usual lately. I’ve been finding myself hitting up the ‘bux at least a couple of times a week and, I’ll tell ya…it’s all too convenient to be able to reload my Starbucks card with PayPal. That, my friends, is trouble.
Then again, when I wind up getting free samples of their new Frappuccinos (like the mocha cookie crumble one seen below) it makes it all worth it.
At least, that’s what I tell Jay.
Oh, and speaking of their Frapuccinos? FYI, they’re having their Happy Hour until May 10th (all fraps are half off from 3-5pm) and the caramel ribbon crunch one is AMAZING.
It was a travel necessity last week, for sure.
Did you guys know they make Birthday Cake m&ms?
These were a Target find a couple of weeks ago and were delicious. Although, the pretzel m&m’s will still forever and always be my favorite.
Sam Adams Summer Ale continues to rock my socks.
Some nights, Jay and I really just love having a nice, cold beer with (or before) dinner. Whenever this particular night was, we enjoyed our beers with some BLAT’s (bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato) and fries. So simple, so delicious.
Technically, I should save these photos for my glamping recap, but I just had to mention this breakfast, which we had on Saturday at the resort. They started us off with fresh fruit and pastries which were amazing…
…but the full breakfast was out of this world. Eggs with veggies, toast, and chocolate chip pancake all on one plate? Well, let’s just go ahead and call that a little slice of heaven.
Another sneak peek from glamping…
We enjoyed our beverages last weekend, that’s for sure. Between the huckleberry hounds and the homemade sangria, I was in my glory. Obviously.
Here’s a shot from part of Tuesday’s dinner…homemade chicken burger “sliders” made with bbq sauce and cheddar cheese with avocado slices.
I’ve decided I’m going to be making these, like, at least once a week now.
And, of course, I can’t really have a random post without mentioning my baby. Or shall I say, my on-the-verge-of-walking baby…
Lucas is now to the point where he wants to walk around the house all day long with his little walker toy there. He’ll also hold onto our hands and walk like that now, if he’s not already speed-crawling all over the place. Yeeeeahhh…I went the other day and invested in a gate. This guy is just a little speed daemon! And seriously…I’m not ready for this walking stuff yet. Slow down, time!
Since we all know I can’t stop time, I’m just embracing it as it comes…and let me tell ya. He is just so. much. fun. right now
My happy smiley guy.
A bit of a random post for ya today, I guess! Here’s to hoping it’s a good Thursday for all of us…one step closer to Fridayyyyy!
Jenn@Mark My Miles! says
I love those M&M’s! I spotted them at Target the other day and am so glad that I did!
Our little guy is almost walking as well and I’m not ready for it!!!!
Brynn says
The Starbucks easy reload is so, so dangerous. I tell my husband that I score a free one after 12, that is my justification. :) looks like a lot of good eats, especially your Glamping breakfast. Yum!
Linz @ Itz Linz says
i was disappointed with the birthday cake m&ms
Erica @ For the Sake of Cake says
Now I want sliders… at 6:45 in the morning.
Sara @ LovingOnTheRun says
My husband and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pretzel M&M’s but recently haven’t been able to find them ANYWHERE! The birthday cake were good but my fave will always be the pretzel as well!
Andrea @ Pencils and Pancakes says
Hey Courtney I’m going to Albany for a business trip next week and was wondering if you could give me a restaurant suggestion!! I’m staying at the Desmond and I know that’s a little outside downtown.
Courtney says
Ooooo, how fun!! Yes, the Desmond is outside of downtown, but a couple of my favorites nearby would have to be D’Raymonds and Lanie’s Cafe. They’re both right near each other and close to where you’ll be staying. Let me know if you decide to try either!! :)
Lauren says
LOVE that it is Frappe season again and wohoo for Frappy Hour! I’ve definitely taken advantage of that this week.
Courtney, he is too cute. Seriously, he only gets cuter with age. :)
Natalie @ The Ravenous Mommy says
I have never been lucky enough to get a free sample of something at starbucks, booo.
LOVE pretzel m&ms, I wish I could eat them every single day!
Caitlyn @ City and the Cubicle says
The pretzel M & Ms are forever my favorite too! I’ve also been all about the Starbucks lately :)
Tiff @ Love Sweat & Beers says
Oh man, I’m totally ready for second breakfast after reading this. Breakfast + pizza + bacon = sign me up!! :)
I’ve been thinking of getting E a walker. Perhaps I should bite the bullet and go for it already!
Kim @ Hungry Healthy Girl says
Wow…. Those are some awesome looking breakfast eats! I’ve been enjoying Starbucks more than often too, thanks to happy hour!
Haley @Cupcakes and Sunshine says
I have been trying not to throw those M&Ms in my cart every time I go to Target but now I HAVE to try them.
Lindsay @ Lindsay's List says
MUST find those M & M’s!!
Shel@PeachyPalate says
I my lord I want that omelet!!! It looks heavenly!!! Can’t wait to see all the pics and hear more about the trip! Awesome that you’ve gotten back in to softball too!
Paige @ Your Trainer Paige says
Wait wait wait….birthday cake mnms?!? My favorite candy is forever pb mnm’s, but these just might rival it…
Sam @ Better With Sprinkles says
100% with you on Pretzel M&Ms…although peanut butter ones are my number 2 ;-) And Lucas’ little smiley face is so, so adorable!
Kate says
We need the scoop on that breakfast pizza!!! Would love a recipe for it….and I am curious do you cook your chicken burgers ( any burger ) inside and if so how? Thanks for be such a great motivator!!!!
Courtney says
I’ll see if I can get the recipe for the b-fast pizza! ;)
We cook our burgers inside sometimes on our Griddler Jr. It’s great!!
Polly @ Tasty Food Project says
That mocha cookie crumble frap sounds so good! I haven’t had a frapuccino in ages!
Laura says
Love this random post!! All the food looks soooo good and, I swear, Lucas just gets cuter and cuter by the day!
ellie @ fit for the soul says
oh girlll you’re making me haaangry now…! You always manage to do that, somehow. Haha. And I love it when places like Sbux decide to randomly provide samples (which is almost never)! Anything free is more delicious, right? :P
Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries says
I’ll never complain about yummy food photos! Hunter will be walking any day now too. He’s ALL over the place!
Claire @ Keeping Up With Claire says
Oh my gosh look at his adorable little smile! He is such a cutie!
I’m the same way with Starbucks. I actually adopted your Coffee Friday habit a few months ago because I got a little out of control with the daily Starbucks stops! :)
Hilary says
I almost got a frappe today, but our starbucks is inside a kroger ugh! What is starbucks with out the atmosphere! So I opted for Panera, I do have a gift card! That breakfast spread though looks phenomenal !
Leigha @ Minougirl says
I am SO. excited for the glamping recap! But all these eats look pretty dang yummy too! Well, everything except the beer, since it would be illegal or me, lol! btw the pic of you and Lucas is ADORABLE. So cute!
Caitlin says
Recipe for chicken sliders.
Caitlin says
Please, Can I have the recipe for the chicken sliders? They look so good.
Divya @ Eat. Teach. Blog. says
Hahaha, I can see now why there were errors on your post from your phone! Not because you were on your phone but because you had had three drinks! ;)
JK.
The food looks amaaaaaazing!
Nala says
OMG! All the food on this post looks Ah-Mazing, you certainly had some good eats of late =) As usual Lucas is just too adorable – I love his little smiley face!
