The End Of The World Is When?

I am a mother of two little kiddos, two senior doggies, and work full time outside of the home. I am married to a hard working, snowmobile loving man whom I shall affectionately refer to as Mr. Big. I love to cook, sew, quilt, scrapbook, crochet, and knit...yes I live in Utah.

We have all heard it...the end of the world is December 12, 21, or 22nd of this year. With only 10 months left, I got to thinking. What are all the things I would like to do before the end? Well, for starters, if the world is really going to end, I had better start living like it right! So moving forward, I am going to record all of my experiences for the next and final 10 months (you know this will be interesting!).

Part of me feels like I should set up some guidelines for this blog (my inner control freak speaking) however, I will refrain.

Let's begin...February. I love this month, not only because it is the month of love, but because there are also several birthdays to celebrate, including Big Buddy's (my 4 year old son). If you know me, so far each year of this childs life, I have created an amazing cake of sorts. Last year it was Spiderman. This year he has requested Transformers. With just being fresh back to work (I had a baby several months ago) I literally feel like I have a ton on my plate. Here is hoping I can pull off a super fun cake by Friday of this week. Wish me luck!

With a huge Transformer cake on my mind, tonight I thought I would whip out a fun little dessert for my family (you will see that when I feel really stressed out, I turn to cooking. For some odd reason, it relaxes me). Back story: As I strive to further my cooking/baking skills, I have been trying to follow a new recipe each week to expand my culinary abilities. Tonight, I found a recipe off of Pinterest (I love you) for little blueberry turnovers. They looked quite easy and were! Did I mention they were a hit with Mr. Big (my husband) and Big Buddy (my son). I took a quick photo to share. Feast your eyes on these little dessert bombs! I wish I could say they were fat free, but who cares right!
