A Few Extra

By Courtney 47 Comments

I am so, so happy to finally make it to the end of this week. And to make things even better, I’ve got a date tonight with my bestie, Heather, which I am really looking forward to. Anyone else got any fun plans ahead?

We didn’t have all too much exciting going on around here last night…I wasn’t cooking dinner, so Jay had leftover pizza and I ended up making a sandwich similar to this one, minus the turkey bacon but add in some pickles.

Dinner happened pretty quickly so I could continue working on finishing up some baking. I have an order of cupcakes to drop off today (actually for a reader who lives in Florida but is up in the area visiting – thanks again, Karen!) so I figured since I was already making some, I’d just make a few extra for Jay to bring in to work.

Or, you know. An extra two dozen. Whatever. Winking smile

It’s been a while since I made the cookie dough cupcakes and I know the guys at work love those, so hopefully they’ll all enjoy them today. I’m starting to think I should just be the resident baker at the company…?

Once I was done in the kitchen for the night, I settled in on the couch with a couple pieces of dark chocolate and Wednesday’s episode of Nashville. Wow, that Hayden Panettiere is quite the little hussy(!) but I think I’m really gonna like this show.

Breakfast

So we are now officially out of pumpkin spice English muffins…cue the violins.

I’m slowly making my way through all of our pumpkin carbs, which I think Jay is pretty happy about. At one point, he looked around the kitchen earlier this week and basically told me I have pumpkin issues (but we all already know that now, don’t we?).

Today’s muffin was topped with PB, banana slices, and chia seeds, and enjoyed along with the rest of my banana with more PB and the usual coffee.

IMG_8245

Good thing I’ve already got my peanut butter fix, since it’s about time to go make up a batch of some peanut butter frosting. Winking smile

Question for the Morning:

Which of the new TV shows this season are you already into (or not liking at all)?

    I'm loving Partners! It's hilarious! It's so funny that you mention Hayden Panettiere. We didn't watch Nashville, but yesterday my husband found out that she's the same little girl from Remember the Titans. He definitely had a "Oh my gosh, I'm old" moment. He was horrified!!

    I'm not a big TV watcher...the only time I watch it really is when I'm in the gym on the treadmill! Guilt free TV watching at its best right! Cakes as always look amazing!!! You should try make your own pumpkin bagels or muffins! I've made some that I'm going to post next week! :)

    I wish you were my company's resident baker! Those cupcakes look amazing! :) so far this season I of course love ModernFamily (hilarious!) and I actually liked the pilot episode of Nashville! I hope it will be a series I can get into! However, Gossip Girl was kind of a bummer for me.. I have followed it since the beginning, but I think I am starting to understand why it's the last season.. Boo!

    I'm quite jealous of your pumpkin ways! I get as many pumpkin things at the grocery store as possible, but it seems like you guys in the U.S. get so many more options (hellloooo pumpkin waffles!).

    I just started watching Nashville last night and I think it's going to be a good one! I loved Connie Britton in Friday Night Lights, and I'm excited for this show to see her again. And you're right-when did Hayden grow up from the little innocent girl in Remember the Titans? She has got it goin onnnnnn ;)

    I haven't watched any new shows this season, but I never miss an episode of Grey's Anatomy. Sometimes I watch X-Factor and American Idol. I did see Nashville advertise and I thought it looked pretty good. Maybe I can catch it on Hulu. Have a great weekend!

    Lol I have pumpkin issues, too, and I think I went too far this morning when I tried to make pumpkin Greek yogurt by adding 1/4 c pumpkin and 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice to a 6 oz container of 2% plain yogurt. Good in theory, but tasted icky - I think vanilla flavored yogurt would have been much better, or at least a few teaspoons of sugar. Ah well, my homemade pumpkin waffles were to DIE for - seriously so good. You win some, you lose some!

    My husband would like to tell me I have pumpkin issues right now but he is smarter than that. I am pregnant and right now and he knows not to mess with my food!! I am craving anything pumpkin at the moment. So far this is what I have had (in the last two week mind you) pumpkin soup, pumpkin butter, pumpkin waffles, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin bread, pumpkin donuts, pumpkin pie smoothies, pumpkin pie yogurt, pumpkin pie oatmeal, pumpkin bagels, pumpkin cream cheese and pumpkin poptarts!!!! I have yet to find the pumpkin english muffins but you better believe I am looking for them. I love pumpkin stuff anyway but right now it is out of control. Even I can admit that! :) This weekend I have plans to make pumpkin cookies!!! Courtney I am in full support of your "pumpkin issues"!!

    New shows I'm already into are Nashville and I started to watch the X Factor. The talent this season on the X Factor is incredible. I would be torn on who to give the five million dollar contract! Made in Jersey is good, but I'm not going to committ myself to it on Fridays. I'll watch it when I'm bored or if I have no plans on a Friday night.

Lol..
