Meal Plan Monday 1/30/12

Last week I made a new recipe of deconstructed Cabbage Rolls.  It was SO good!  The littles and I loved it.  My husband wouldn't touch it and the oldest wasn't home so no opinion from him.  My brother and mom tasted it too and they thought it was pretty good.  My brother thought it might have too much tomatoes in it, but I really like it.  I followed the recipe, but only halved it so it would fit into an 8x8 pan. 

I also made a pretty bridal shower cake.  I'm really happy how it turned out.  I'd love to do this in a wedding cake too. 

 

At the bakery last month, we had a Cupcake Extravaganza.  It was very successful so we are going to do this once a month.  This Sunday we'll be offering 15 different kinds of cupcakes for $1 each.  Such a steal!  So if you've never been out to the Blue Eyed Daisy Bakeshop, this Sunday will be the time to venture out.  In keeping with the Super Bowl, we'll be offering some of our favorite "manly" flavors like Chocolate Beer, Peanut Butter Caramel and Spiced Maple Bacon.  If you're hosting a party this weekend, pop by the bakery and pick up some cupcakes to enjoy during the game.

Speaking of the Super Bowl, we'll be having my parents over to eat and watch the commercials game.  What are some of your favorite Super Bowl foods?  We usually eat chicken wings, salsa and guacamole.  You can read about our other favorites on this post.
