Hello my name is Carmen and I'm a Pin-a-holic!

I'm trying to revamp this blog and get it going again.  What better way to do so than to share these yummy treats I found on Pinterest and tried out on my Fourth of July guests.  There was a  lovely corn dip from Miss Sammi Sunshine, some scrumptious Bacon Wrapped Guacamole Poppers from Paradise Grove Avocados and a delicious Sangria from Jessica Fike Photography (odd I know, but that is where the Pinterest post took me).  The reviews from my dear ginny pigs were that the corn dip was good, but my chips were not strong enough so word to the wise, buy the good stuff.  The Sangria was finished off completely and I did not have a glass so you will just have to try that out for yourself.  My fruit consisted of a peach, black grapes, strawberries, a granny smith apple, a pear, and an orange.  The poppers were well received, which when is something bacon wrapped not right?  I will say I waited until the last minute to get the jalapeños (or to send my dear, sweet hubby to battle for the last 11) so I was stuck with the small ones.  More to come...hopefully.

7UP Biscuits

Tonight we had a meatless meal for dinner inclusive of water sauteed squash, steamed broccoli, red beans and rice, and 7UP Biscuits.  These biscuits are delicious.  I have made them twice now and not once have we been disappointed.  I used Sprite instead of 7UP because I did not have 7UP, but I'm sure they are fantastic with it as well.  The recipe was a Pinterest find from the Plain Chicken blog.  I hope you try them and enjoy them as much as we do.
