Oh, disapointment!

So I've already told you guys about how I love to make desserts for my church's winter dinners (Pie Pops?). And also you know that I like to make them fun. So a few weeks ago I decided I wanted to make something both delicious and pretty. Like, maybe the prettiest thing I could find a recipe for. Yes, the prettiest thing. So I found this GORGEOUS cheesecake-y tart with fresh strawberries, kiwi, blueberries, and a lime glaze.  And I spent a good time making it too. It was absolutely the prettiest. I was proud. I was the best. I was excited.


Then suddenly, BOOM. Snowstorm. I am unperturbed. This is western New York. A third of the year is a snowstorm here.

Then suddenly, BOOM. Or, RING. The phone. And church is canceled because of the snow.



So guess what we had for breakfast?


(It was very delicious!)

  7. Nabila, I was sad that I couldn't share it, but, if I'm being honest here, I was more sad that I didn't get the chance to show off!! It's that sin nature!!

    Becky, I think everyone was glad to have it, probably if I had taken it to church we wouldn't have gotten any, haha

    Ann, IT WAS FULLY THE WORST MOMENT OF MY LIFE. I MAY NEVER RECOVER.

    That's the recipe, and I have to tell you I had a really hard time deciding to use this one, only because Paula Deen is one freaky lady. Seriously, she scares me to death. Her facial expression is always the same, and she has CRAZY EYESSSSSSSS!!! But it turns out her food is good :)

    Joshswife, Thank you! And I hope it did.

    Sarah, Pshh, you flatterer you. Also, I bought avocados and spirulina and I'm FINALLY going to make a green smoothie tomorrow!! Excite!!

  8. It looks so very enticing--I am sure there has to be sin involved with it somehow!
