Coooking!! Marbled Mashed Potatoes - New twist on Thanksgiving favorites....


One day at work, it came to me about how awesome it would be to combine my two favorite things, 

Gold & Sweet Mashed Potatoes!

I've been toying with this idea for about 3 weeks now, and finally got the chance to attempt this creation as I continue to ponder my Thanksgiving Menu.  

The plan was to boil two of each type, mash separately, and then once mashed to my liking, put in a pastry bag, each on either side, and squeeze onto a cookie sheet.
Top with the slightest amount of butter and bake.  I was hesitant that the structure and form would stay, but overall just hoping for an awesome taste and an amazing presentation.

So here it goes....



Mashed Gold & Sweet Potatoes Swirled over a Kale Salad and a side of Asparagus!
Not too bad for my first attempt!

52 Weeks of Floor Plans --- Week 21!

Week 21! I have a cozy bedroom now, and love its quaint size, so I stemmed this weeks design with the simplicity of the room.  The only change I would make to my current space would be to switch the window wall (I only sleep on my right side, so I would love it if the sunrise would be conveniently positioned to wake me in the morning.  I love this wall color and the retro couch.  And I'm a sucker for orange/ peach roses.   Source A clean color scheme with eclectic accents for the kitchen.

Source Small but beautiful powder room. Source

Traveling & Life

My last post for my 52 weeks of floor plans conveniently coincided with a vacation I'd been anticipating all year.  I took 10 days off work - something I rarely do!  July 2nd I went on an adventure down south to places I had never been, with people I had never met but have long connections with!  I saw amazing views along the way... Somewhere in North Carolina.... I was able to cross "The Biltmore Estate" off my bucket list & visited Asheville, NC.  And my cousin's corny joke, "It's a little small....they could have built more" We then continued to South Carolina for a family reunion on the 4th!  And finally, my favorite part of the trip, the Smokey Mountains.  (Cosby, Tennessee) We stayed at a secluded log cabin on the top of a mountain with our own private road and 35 acres with trails on the property.   I sadly saw no bears, but heard them in the woods around us in the early hours of the morning.  I spent m...

52 Weeks of Floor Plans --- Week 50!

I love the exterior of this place!  It would be perfect with the rear of the house facing a small lake so I could wake up and go kayaking before starting my days! Source Maybe a lake and deck like this... Source I found this galley kitchen with a great decorative floor tile, simple white subway tile, and wood counter-tops. Source Another great tile! Source And finally this beautiful light blue faded shower tile! Source
