Recently Dan and I committed to only eating sweets once a week. Now for some of you, this doesn't seem like anything to write home about, but for us, it's kind of a big deal. So since our treats have become a rare occasion, I get a bit ridiculous and plan days ahead what I am going to make. Today I made cupcakes with chocolate chip cookie dough inside, um....yum. A definite success. I'll even provide some pics. Notice my fancy frosting...haha kind of, I used a zip lock bag. You can take the girl out of the creek.....

Classic Yellow Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting |

These look a little funky b/c I cut the hole too big in the zip lock bag, haha, but they are chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting...yummy! |

Other than obsessively planning our dessert menu, nothing too exciting has been going on with us. We did go to another Heat game on Friday night which is always a blast. Saturday we made our first journey to the beach and it was BEAUTIFUL! White sand with blue water equals paradise, seriously, plant me on the beach with a chair, ice water, and a good book....you wouldn't have to come back for me for days. And the fact that we got to go and lay in the sun in February, even better. I could get used to that for sure.
We did have an interesting experience at church today. Our wards were recently changed up here in Miami, and Dan and I have found ourselves in a spanish speaking one. It makes for an interesting challenge, but everything happens for a reason so we will make it work! For now we sit in the back with headphones on for translation, haha it's pretty funny. I wanted to take our picture today, but that may have been inappropriate.
My mouth is literally watering right now!!! I think I'm going to need your recipe for those cupcakes with the chocolate chip cookie dough inside, frosting included! I SO wish you could come to MN too. We would have a blast. But for now, just now that I miss you, love you, and think about you often. Muah!
