11/05/11: Frozen Banana Bites

I follow a blog called (Never Home)Maker. It's a great blog of a fellow preggo, food fanatic and fitness enthusiast. I have been wanting to make these Frozen Banana Bites for a while and just never had bananas and chocolate in the house at the same time. FINALLY today was the day...and good thing because I was in need of something sweet and the apple pie I wanted to make from scratch (I'll make it tomorrow) needs 4 hours for the dough to chill. That's what I get for waiting until right before I want to cook something to read the instructions.

These are in the freezer right now, but I couldn't wait to share them. I didn't use vegan chocolate chips, but instead used Ghirardelli 60% cocao bittersweet chips and I made half with just chocolate and half with chocolate and my favorite peanut butter, Full Circle (which I could live on...seriously, ask Andy). I didn't measure anything...just kind of went for it. I did sprinkle some coconut on top of some of them. I wanted a little variety!  Can't wait to try them in their "frozen" state. (I can't say I didn't try them before freezing...)

38 Weeks (and counting) Belly pic

Now we're getting antsy. I hit uncomfortable a few weeks ago...I can deal with that. Now we are just antsy to meet the little guy and introduce him to his family and friends. I think Andy & I are in fast forward mode all of a sudden, just wanting the time to fly by... Looking at pictures from last week it appears I may have dropped slightly...maybe?...maybe not? I guess I can sort of breath a little easier. I'm not waddling like many people say you do when this happens...I'm just slow...haha. I'm not nesting either. I've posted to Facebook to tell friends what I've been up to and they say I am, but really that's just me. I'm totally anal retentive and a perfectionist and have to have things in their place. This is my norm. Not anything new.  38 weeks 37 weeks As the time draws near my patients at work continue to say things like, "You're still here?" and "Had that baby yet?" (most annoying question ever). Ye...

4/17/11: Carlyle Pizza Scramble

A & I went to Carlyle Brewery last night for dinner before hitting Spring ArtScene 2011 . Dinner was great, as was ArtScene, where we ran into some old friends. We had some leftovers of our pepperoni, green & black olive and mushroom pizza and instead of hitting our usual Sunday morning breakfast spot, Mary's Market , we decided to re-create our amazing pizza scramble. Just added red peppers, green onion, a dash of zesty pepper jack cheese and eggs to the mix w/a side of avocado and toast w/honey.....mmmmm. Oh yeah and a bit of Carlyle Stout to round out the meal. What a great way to start a stay at home Sunday!
