That One Time

...when we made Paula Deen Cinnamon Rolls!

Back in December, when Ryan visited Connecticut, we decide to try out a cinnamon roll recipe. Not too shabby for our first go at it! Ryan used to work at a bakery, so he knew more about the yeast and dough and such. I think we could have changed up the icing some and added more cinnamon sugar. 

That's just the sweet tooth in me I guess :)

So Fresh!

Hot weather has arrived in the South. And it's not joking around. I returned to Auburn, Alabama with my apartments air conditioning broken. Open windows and fans have been our solution until today when it got fixed! In the meantime though, I tried out some refreshing fruit water. I'm already so bad at drinking enough of it, but sprucing it up with my favorite fruit makes it so tasty (and pretty looking too!) Today I tried out some blueberry and lemon water. I figure I'll switch it up each week.

Check out this site for a neat blackberry sage water drink.

I'm looking forward to finding some more fun summer ideas to try out in the kitchen. Any suggestions?
