May 9th~ National Butterscotch Brownie Day

So even though the blog has been a little behind, it's just that busy time of year, we have still been celebrating the food holidays. So here is a picture of a "Blondie" the girlies and I shared at Applebee's on National Butterscotch Brownie Day. *sidebar- Blondie is another name for a butterscotch brownie.
The blondie was HUGE in pointsplus vaule but since the girls and I shared it, we still got to enjoy the food holiday without going over board.

National Buttermilk Biscuit Day & National Egg Month

Celebrated a double holiday today! Made semi-homemade (as if you couldn't tell? Lopsided and all) buttermilk biscuits, and topped them off with eggs, turkey bacon and slices of cheese for a wonderful Brinner sandwich. They were delish! Happy National Egg Month and National Buttermilk Biscuit Day!

May 13~ National Apple Pie Day

So my middle daughter, Emily, is just crazy about pie. This year on my Mother's Day card she made at school, it actually said: "Mom, I love you more than flowers and pie". So whenever a pie holiday comes upon us, we try our hardest to celebrate. So here is one of the apple pie slices we enjoyed yesterday before little Emily got to it.
