Baby shower!

One of my best friends is having a baby girl; her first!  As soon as she got married I knew I wanted to throw her a baby shower- whenever that happened to be.
It was an open house and the only theme I did was with the colors- pink and brown.
We had fruit/yogurt parfaits and cookies and a yummy punch.

Invitations I found on pinterest- the names and dates were changed but it looked exactly like this

Punch is so easy and it's my favorite drink to make for showers/parties:
white grape juice, fresca and Sonic ice.  Easy Peasy.
Just a few pictures (after I had the table complety set up and ready to go, guests started arriving and I did not get a picture of the final table.






3 cheese chicken "alfredo" bake

I am infamous for putting in wrong ingredients when I cook (or miss the ingredients completely)

One time (which my brothers will NEVER let me live down) was when I made beef strogonaff for them.  It calls for 1 cup of sour cream.  I was thinking of something white and I put in 1 cup of crisco.  It was a big pile of greasy grease.  And there are other stories.

This recipe was really good.  As we were eating I thought "this is not very creamy at all?"  Then after we were finished I saw the jar of alfedo sauce that was supposed to be added.  Still sealed and in the pantry.  So, with the alfredo it would only make it better I have a feeling.  It was still good without because it was so cheesy!

Man Pleasing Chicken

I think my man was pleased :)  We love grilling so we put this on the grill instead of the oven to bake. 
Side of rice and baked asparagus.  Made me feel so healthy.
