sugar&spice


Charlotte and I went to buy produce at Henry's Farmers Market today,the cashier rang us up at the end and I was psyched that I only had to whip out$17.15.......I feel like I got such a great deal for all this exciting fresh healthy produce.Aaron made fun of me while I was setting it out nicely when I got home, and hethinks it's rediculous that I am talking about it on my blog, but hey it was the 72hr. sale....avacados were 3/$1..............it's the little things in life.


Speeking of Kitchens, I am PSYCHED about our new majestic yellow kitchenaid mixer!My Grandma Leona, and my sweet momma gave us money for Christmas that we decided to put towards a mixer. it's simply delightful. so retro and cool..... great for making cookies with the kids as they grow up! yay!





aunt Lindsey gave us these cute measuring spoons for Christmas,Charlotte thinks they're great

doesn't she just look like she thinks she's big stuff? (.......our world does pretty much revolve around her)
but my favorite cook in our kitchen is this guy. he's not into taking pictures with his goods
(I forced him, and he was totally annoyed), but he found this recipe for stuffed green peppers on the back of our grocery store receipt and thought he'd give them a try.....how delightful!
He since we've had this mixer he's made chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookiespizza dough, mashed potatoes, and soft chewy gingerbread cookies that were horribly addicting.

and this is gonna be the cause of my baby weight sticking with me,because he makes THE BEST from scratch apple pie, the perfect amount of sweet and tart..................................yes, I think I'll keep this guy around!

  3. I am so envious reading this! . . . a farmers market year-round sounds wonderful! If (WHEN) you do end up in Kansas you will have to settle for the grocery store selection for these wintery months.

    Also, I LOVE the yellow mixer. Yellow has always been one of my favorite colors - so fun that you get to have that yellow-mixer to greet you every time you go into your kitchen.
