I'm trying this green smoothie recipe to get in shape for summer. Let me know what you think!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>You will need:</b></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 handful of kale leaves (make sure to take the leaves off of the stem) coarsely chopped</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 apple (I used a Gala apple) chopped</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2 celery stalks chopped</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
about 1 tsp. of finely chopped ginger</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 small cucumber chopped</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
freshly squeezed lemon juice for taste</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2 cups of water</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
optional: you may add stevia drops if you want some added sweetness </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
( although I thought the apple made it sweet enough)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Directions:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Blend the kale leaves with the water until smooth. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then add all other ingredients and blend to desired thickness.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you do not like a thick consistency I would suggest juicing instead of blending. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you're juicing then just leave out the water. It's as simple as that!</div>

The hubby and I are starting a low carb diet and one of my go-to meals is this super quick and easy mini quiche recipe. I originally found the recipe on Pinterest and it came from <a href="http://under400.tumblr.com/post/3334930421/egg-and-spinach-quiche-cups-10-ounces-frozen" target="_blank">this</a> site. I wanted to share the general ingredients that make up the recipe with my friends here on the blog. Make it your own by customizing with different veggie choices. Mushrooms, kale, red onions, and hot peppers could be yummy to experiment with. Enjoy!<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Skinny Mini Quiche Cups</h3>
<div>
<ul>
<li>the whites of 6 eggs</li>
<li>1/2-3/4 cup of chopped veggies...I used 3/4 cup total of chopped onion, red pepper, and green pepper</li>
<li>10 oz. frozen spinach cooked and squeezed dry</li>
<li>3/4 cup of cheese (you can use fat free, but I prefer to use a nice cheddar to get my dairy intake for the day)</li>
<li>Hot Sauce (optional)...I use Frank's hot sauce and do 3 shakes</li>
<li>sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste</li>
</ul>
<div>
Combine all ingredients in a medium sized bowl and stir. Separate into 12 foil baking cups in a muffin tin. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes and you are done! Super easy, low carb, and yummy!</div>
</div>

Spring time is upon us and my favorite thing about Spring is all of the beautiful flowers that come into season. Fresh flowers can be expensive so here are my tips to make your fresh flowers last longer.<br />
<h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Tips and Tricks to Make Fresh Flowers Live Longer</b></div>
</b></h3>
<b>1.</b> <b>Make sure to cut 1-2 inches off the stem of each flower. </b>Cut the stem under warm running water using sharp shears.<br />
<b>2. Cut the stem on an angle</b><br />
<b>3.</b> <b>Remove all low leaves from the flower</b> (cut anything that is below water level). Low leaves tend to rot and will put bacteria into the water.<br />
<b>3.</b> <b>Make sure that your vase is CLEAN</b>. This is a big mistake that many people make. Your vase needs to be clean and free of bacteria before you add your flowers. I usually clean my vase right before I fill it with water.<br />
<b>4. </b> <b>Give the flowers food.</b> A good trick is to add sugar (about 2 tbsp) to the water to encourage the flowers to bloom. I know it sounds funny but it works!<br />
<b>5. Add a preservative to the water.</b> Many household items act as a preservative, such as:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>1 aspirin crushed in water and added to the water in the vase...this is my go to and it works fabulously!</li>
<li>2 tbsp of white vinegar</li>
<li>1 capful of Bleach</li>
</ul>
<div>
<b>6. Change the water every other day. </b>Once again you want to limit bacteria and overall yuckiness so make sure to change the water frequently and of course add your sugar and preservative as well.</div>
<div>
<b>7. Different flowers need different care.</b> It may be worth it to do a quick Google search for care of your flower of choice. For instance I learned that Daffodils should not be used in vase arrangements with other flowers because thy secrete a substance that will kill the other flowers...who knew?!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The arrangement below that I highlighted in <a href="http://www.designlifeandstyle.com/2013/02/valentines-day-floral-arrangement.html" target="_blank">this post</a> lasted for almost 20 DAYS! (19 to be exact). Take care of your flowers and they will stay beautiful longer for you.</div>

One of my favorite recipes of all time to bring to a party is the Knorr Spinach Dip recipe (found <a href="http://www.knorr.com/recipes/detail/9278/1/knorr-spinach-dip" target="_blank">here</a>). This recipe is so yummy but it requires a full cup of mayo and a 16 oz. container of sour cream. While browsing their website I noticed they had a recipe using Greek Yogurt but it still used a full cup of reduced fat mayo (find it <a href="http://www.knorr.com/recipes/detail/11755/1/knorr-spinach-dip-with-greek-yogurt" target="_blank">here</a>). I've altered this recipe to be more health conscious and I LOVE how it turned out. I hope you enjoy!<br />

Nic and I truly do live in our living room. You can find us there 95% of the time while we're home. It was a little difficult organizing a design scheme around a 67 in. big screen TV but we were able to make compromises and we love how things turned out.<br />
<br />
While redecorating the condo from Nic's bachelor pad to a family home we did not want to spend very much money. We knew we would need some additional pieces of furniture; so we tried to buy things that will still work well in our next home. Redecorating the condo really got me interested in designing on a budget, yet still buying quality pieces.<br />
<br />
Here are the Before & After photos of our living room. My favorite part of the room is the matching wingback chairs. What is your favorite piece in your living room? Leave me a comment!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">As always, if you see something that you like there are links to where I purchased each piece at the end of the post. If I have not linked to a website just leave me a comment and ask where I purchased it. I would love to help you find pieces that you love.</span></div>

He moved in along with some friends as roommates. The condo remained a bachelor pad until April 2011 when we got married and I moved in (and the roommates were kicked out). The past year has been spent merging our tastes and making this condo feel like home.<br />
<br />
I hesitated at first to display pictures of our home because I have not done a lot of work on the condo. I have done the bare minimum to make it feel homey and put my stamp on things because I knew our time here would be fairly short term. So please don't judge my design skills on what I've done here. When we move into a more permanent home I intend to get a lot more creative :)<br />
<br />
A few weeks before I moved in I took some "before" pictures of the place and I thought it would be a fun blog post to show you my "after" pics. The before pictures were taken in all of its messy, unorganized, bachelor pad glory (sorry Nic!). Here are the changes that I have made to our guest bathroom. Stay tuned for more Before & After pics to follow.<br />

<br />
It has been a long, cold winter here in Utah. I am so excited for Valentine's Day for many reasons but especially because it signifies the coming of Spring. I wanted to add a pop of color to our home so I decided to throw together a quick Valentine's inspired floral arrangement for our family room end table.<br />
<br />
Here are my tips for arranging fresh flowers like a pro!<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>1. Separate Sections for Each Flower with Tape: </b>This allows the flowers to stay in place where you have situated them. The great part is that you cannot see the tape at all once the flowers are placed!<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>2. Make Sure to Measure: </b>Measuring each stem to the appropriate length is key in creating a professional looking arrangement. Do not chop too much of the stem off immediately! It is always safer to cut a little off until you find the perfect length and then measure each subsequent flower to match.<br />

<b>3. Invest in Some Gorgeous Vases:</b> Vases are a staple for any home. I guarantee you will use them more often then you think for many different reasons. I like to buy a lot of my glassware at TJ Maxx or Home Goods. I bought this vase for only $5.99. It was such a great deal I bought two!<br />

<b>4. Buy Whatever Flowers are on Sale:</b> Fresh flowers can be pricey and I like to keep them in our home as much as possible. Try to buy whatever flowers are in season at the time or have been marked down. Flowers will look naturally gorgeous no matter what so you might as well get a good deal on them. Farmer's Markets are great for purchasing fresh flowers at reasonable prices. I wish we had more in Utah!<br />

It was a bustling city back then acting as a gateway for the railroads. It may not be as glorious today as it was back then but there is some really great historic architecture to be enjoyed there. A while back the hubs and I took a Sunday drive up to Ogden to do some exploring. Here are some pics of the homes we saw. I love drawing inspiration from both the old and the new; so this was a big treat for me. Older homes have so much personality. I hope to bring some of that charm to our home when we build.<br />
<br />
You'll notice a few of the homes are under construction. I think this is just great because it will realy revitalize the city. One day Nic and I hope to restore a home and sell it to a new family. I think that would be a really fun project. Which home is your favorite? Let me know!<br />

<br />
These are hands down the best chocolate chip cookies I have ever eaten in my life. I originally got the recipe from a friend of mine at work and have tweaked it to my liking and it is AMAZING. You need these...now!<br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<b>The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever</b></h2>
<br />
2 sticks (1 cup) of butter softened<br />
1 tsp. vanilla extract<br />
2 eggs<br />
1 cup brown sugar<br />
1 cup granulated sugar<br />
2 1/4 cup flour (I use 2 1/4 C in Provo, UT but if you're really high altitude add a tad more flour)<br />
1 tsp. baking soda<br />
1 3.4 oz box of Jell-O instant vanilla pudding mix (just the powder mix, don't make the pudding!)<br />
1 package or Ghiradelli or Guittard Semisweet chocolate chips<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 350<br />
***Tip- Make sure all ingredients are room temperature. This makes a huge difference. So don't add cold eggs or butter; if you do it will come out fine but not as amazing as if you follow this tip!<br />
<br />
1. In a large bowl cream together butter, sugar (granulated and brown), eggs, and vanilla extract<br />
<br />
2. In a separate medium sized bowl mix flour and baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.<br />
<br />
3. Last, mix in the vanilla pudding mix and chocolate chips.<br />
<br />
4. Make spoon fulls about a heaping tablespoon large and drop onto cookie sheet.<br />
<br />
5. Bake for 10-12 minutes. DO NOT OVER BAKE! Start checking them at 10 minutes and if the edges are not brown leave in for more time. The bake time will differ depending on your oven.<br />
<br />
Now enjoy!!! Please leave a comment and let me know if you loved them!<br />

We have made many amazing memories together and have recognized the blessings of Heavenly Father in our lives in so many different ways. Sometimes I sit in disbelief as I think about how my life has come together. I am happier than I could ever imagine and I have one amazing man to thank for that....my wonderful husband Nic.<br />
<br />
2012 marked the year that we became a family but lets not get ahead of ourselves in the events of the year. The year started out with my 23rd birthday on January 4th. We had a romantic dinner for two at Chef's Table.<br />

January through April was pretty much a complete blur for both of us. It consisted of wedding planning, saving for the wedding, dieting for the wedding (which I totally cheated on and did not lose a pound), buying things for the wedding...just wedding mania in general. Here's a peak into some of that craziness.<br />

Now let's skip to April and finally it is time for the wedding!!! April 14, 2012 was the best day of my life. It was the most amazing spiritual experience I've ever had being sealed to Nic in the Salt Lake Temple. Then we had an amazing reception with our closest family and friends. I'll spare you tons of wedding pictures I'm sure you've seen many of them.</div>

Then we went to Aspen Grove up in the mountains by Sundance for our family reunion. It was so great to meet so many of Nic's extended family members (on the Merrill side) and spend some quality time to get to know them. And of course it was a blast to be with the whole Leydsman gang who came from all over the country!</div>

In September we spent Labor Day with our great friends the Harrises in St. George. We also attended a fundraiser for Mitt Romney at The Grand America. Nic supported Mitt's campaign in every way that he could and he was disappointed when we lost the election. I wish I had something positive to say about the future of the Executive branch of our country's government but... I don't right now. Ask me again in 4 years.</div>

In December I found out that I was offered a position at Property Solutions. I work there as an Account Manager and I have loved it so far. I work with great people and our products kick butt so basically I see myself staying there for a long time. It was kind of sad to leave my job at Shield Protection since I had been working there for years but I am very excited to start my new career.</div>

And to wrap up the year we spent our first married Christmas together. We had Christmas in Provo this year and spent the day with my sister Tai and her family and Nic's family. It was a wonderful Christmas with so much to be grateful for. I am so thankful for the birth of my Savior and I love that the Christmas season is full of so much love.</div>

I wanted to continue sharing some of my favorite holiday recipes on the blog. For me, an ideal holiday recipe is pretty, stress-free, and most importantly delicious! This recipe checks off on all three requirements! My Mom always made these as a part of her dessert spread for Christmas dinner.<br />
<br />
Mom's Mini Cheesecakes<br />
<br />
Cheesecake Mix:<br />
3 (8 oz.) Packages of Philadelphia Cream Cheese<br />
5 Eggs<br />
1 Cup Sugar<br />
1 1/2 Tsp. Vanilla Extract<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 300<br />
<br />
Mix with mixer and pour into cupcake tins with paper liners. Bake for 30-40 minutes. DO NOT ALLOW EDGES TO BROWN. Remove from oven and let stand until topping is ready.<br />
<br />
Topping:<br />
1 Cup Sour Cream<br />
1/2 Tsp. Vanilla Extract<br />
1/4 Cup Sugar<br />
Can of Cherry/ Blueberry Pie Filling (Whichever you prefer. I usually do both)<br />
<br />
Mix all the ingredients together. Put about a tsp. of topping on each cheesecake. Then, spoon a dot of the pie filling in the center of each cheesecake. Return to oven for 5 minutes. Let cool then refrigerate until ready to serve.<br />
<br />
Makes approx. 24 mini cheesecakes<br />

First of all let me apologize for the terrible iPhone photos. I originally was not going to post about this project but it turned out so cute I decided to show you all. I bought this metal sunburst mirror from TJ Maxx in Orem last week. I really did not like the color. Before Nic and I got married he chose a lot of dark colors for the decor and so everything I purchase now is trying to lighten things up. I've wanted a sunburst mirror for soooo long. See post <a href="http://hometrendsutah.blogspot.com/2012/06/style-trend-sunburst-mirror.html">here</a> for my discussion of the trend a while back. Even though I really wanted a mirror like this they were just so dang expensive! The cheapest one I could find was $178. I decided to buy this cheap mirror from TJ Maxx and spray paint it silver like I wanted. I got Krylon Silver Metallic paint from Hobby Lobby for 5.99. The price of the mirror was 25.99 so my total was a crazy cheap $31.98!!!! It might not be perfect but it gives me the look I was going for at a fraction of the cost.</div>

This home won the People's Choice Award this year and it is clear to see why. This was my favorite home in the Parade by far. It felt modern yet elegant. This is a very unique home and I think there is something to be said about the innovative choices made by the design and architectural teams. Click <a href="http://www.mcewancustomhomes.com/">here</a> to see more of Matt McEwan's amazing work.<br />
<br />
Here are my top 3 loves and loathes:<br />
I loved:<br />
1. The color scheme!<br />
2. The incorporatyion of modern and vintage elements<br />
3. The views!<br />
<br />
I loathed:<br />
1. The boy's room. It was much too metro for me (sorry :( )<br />
2. The fact that it did not have a formal dining. It is a huge house so I think a dining room would be appropriate.<br />
3. The guest room was a total fail in my opinion. <br />
<br />
Overall I really loved this home. I can't wait to see what is in the Parade next year! Let me know what you think of this home.

This is my go-to for when a recipe calls for "X Cups of Cooked Chicken." I've used it to make casseroles, calzones, chicken salad, EVERYTHING. It is super quick and easy and results in a nice juicy chicken breast that is ready to be transformed in any type of recipe.<br />
<br />
Only 5 Easy Steps<br />
<br />
1. Preheat your oven to 350<br />
2. Rub your chicken in Olive Oil. Good EVOO is necessary in any kitchen.<br />
3. Season with coarse salt and pepper. If you want a more rotisserie style chicken then add a salt based seasoning as well such as seasoning salt or Cajun seasoning.<br />
4. Pop it in the oven for 35-45 minutes depending on the amount you are baking and the size of the pieces. I mostly use boneless skinless and it is the fastest only taking 20-30 minutes on average. If you are using bone-in pieces it will take the full 35-45 minutes. Make sure the juices have run clear and if you're really afraid of salmonella make sure the internal temperature is 160 degrees.<br />
5. Let stand for 5 minutes and then use as you wish!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14780499207833930585noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845172636906139623.post-56864566270024991712012-08-03T08:23:00.003-07:002013-01-30T18:50:42.210-08:00Best Way to Hang Wall DecorNow I may be an interior design enthusiast but hanging things on walls is not my specialty. Measuring is also not my specialty. I consider myself challenged in any area involving numbers and math. So for me to have perfected a fool proof way of hanging things is basically a miracle. This method is best used when hanging one or more objects but not something as varied as a gallery wall. Gallery walls requires a totally different approach, maybe I'll explain that another time. <br />
<br />
Anyway, my project was installing matching mirrors above our bed. Our master bedroom is a good size but not exactly huge so I went with mirrors to open up the space instead of closing it in with a large portrait. Big mirrors can be crazy spendy. They ranged in price from $200 to $600 just looking around locally. I settled on getting more bang for my buck by purchasing 2 matching mirrors from TJ Maxx for $25 each.<br />

Directions<br />
<br />
1. Apply a strip of tape the full length of your object<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtbMUeiU1IFqxvm5CWMwHerGmL_ePXqWF4U2yaQVp2UjRT_NIP9RvU9Vw4nGrv3OGp8dDi8YAPsqFdYiqre3pOlu1m7J0Y5bt-U4evX5kzK-SzeQRKC9l5j5uV5AWnSCchhZC8o66J3BI/s1600/IMG_1591.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtbMUeiU1IFqxvm5CWMwHerGmL_ePXqWF4U2yaQVp2UjRT_NIP9RvU9Vw4nGrv3OGp8dDi8YAPsqFdYiqre3pOlu1m7J0Y5bt-U4evX5kzK-SzeQRKC9l5j5uV5AWnSCchhZC8o66J3BI/s400/IMG_1591.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
2. Mark on the tape exactly where the hooks are. Most mirrors come with these lovely D Ring hooks that are incredibly annoying so it is important to know exactly where to drive your nail.<br />

<br />
3. Next I measured from the top of the hook to the top of the mirror and from the hook to the bottom as well. I wanted to know exactly where the top/bottom of the mirror would be so that I would hang it on the wall in an appropriate location and so that the mirrors would line up properly. (If you are using more than one frame/mirror measure each individually. One mirror I used had the hooks placed 1/3 inch different from the other.)<br />

<br />
4. Place the tape on your wall where you want the object to go. Having the tape physically there helps you to visualize how it will look. Make sure to measure from the tape to the top/bottom of where the mirror will be. If everything is to your liking then you are about ready to hammer! But first use your level to make sure the tape line is straight.<br />

<br />
5. Hammering is the fun part, obviously. Hammer your hook into the wall. If your hook mark did not land on a stud you need to use a reinforcer for heavy mirrors. Check that your hooks are level to each other. If they are then you're ready to remove the tape and hang! Simply pull the tape gently and it should rip off from behind the hooks.<br />

Voila! Perfectly hung mirrors in the exact position you want them to be in. I hope this helps you to more efficiently hang your mirrors/ large frames. (Please excuse our bedding and lack of decor. This was the temporary bedding we settled on while I have been on a mad search looking for the perfect set. Once one room in our place is finalized I'll publish before and after pics!)<br />

I made a Patriotic rag wreath for Fourth of July and wanted to share with you the directions. I loved the final product and plan to use it for Labor Day, Memorial Day, and Flag Day too!<br />
<br />
1. I purchased 2 yards of fabric in 4 different patterns. A half yard each. I wanted it to have a quilt-like look so I mixed lots of patterns, but made sure to use coordinating colors with similar sized patterns.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. I cut the fabric into strips that were 6 inches long and 1 inch wide. This was the most time consuming part.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. I bought a wire wreath form with four rows of wire so that I could get the most diversity in the mixing of patterns. I bought the wire wreath from Hobby Lobby for $4.95. (The one I got was one of the largest. Pick any size you think will look best on your door.)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
4. I tied all the strips onto the wreath. I would encourage you to double knot if this is a wreath that will be out in the elements a lot. I made sure to tie the fabric strips on in random order. Then I was done! I finished the wreath off with taking a red gingham pattern ribbon and threading it through the first row of wire. Think of something cute you could do to add something special and unique! </div>

That meant the hubs got a break from the office AND we were free to take a vacay with some friends.<br />
<br />
When we arrived in Grand Cayman I got that great feeling I get when I'm in a tropical location. The smell, the moist air, the slight breeze...its intoxicating. We took a taxi to the Ritz-Carlton where we stayed that night. We decided to fly in a day before the rest of the group arrived so we had a bit of alone time. It was like a second honeymoon! The resort was right on Seven Mile beach which is truly beautiful...but very crowded.<br />

We loved the Ritz. The service was great and the food was amazing, as usual! We enjoyed a romantic dinner on the beach that night. It was definitely a highlight of the trip for me.<br />
<br />
The next day we met up with our friends and headed to the other side of the island called Rum Point. We stayed at an awesome home there with a private beach. It was heaven. We spent most of our days at the pool or on the beach.<br />
<br />
Big thanks to Glade for inviting us and organizing the trip! We had so much fun and are so thankful that you thought to invite boring married people like us :)<br />

If you go to Grand Cayman you have to go to Sting Ray City. It is so much fun. Tons of sting rays just swim around you. They are so friendly and let you pet them and even hold them if you're brave enough. That was for sure the highlight of the trip for me; but since we didn't want to ruin our camera I don't have many pictures.<br />

I Loved: THE VIEWS!, the incorporation of organic materials, the energy efficiency, the landscaping</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I Didn't Love: Some of the rough finishes that looked uncomfortable, the 4 story design, and part of the basement wasn't finished (bummer)</div>

Planning a wedding is a lot of work...and stressful. By the time my wedding came around I started to be less and less enamored with controlling every single little detail but when I first started the process I knew there were a few specific things I wanted. I wanted lots of roses, pink peonies, and hydrangeas. I wanted Nic in a grey suit. And I wanted super tasty food and cake. I'm pretty sure all of those things were accomplished! I want to do another post to share with you some more stories behind our wedding so be on the look out for that!<br />
<br />
Here is a list of some of my amazing vendors! All of which are in the Salt Lake City, UT area with the exception of the boutique where I purchased my dress.<br />

I have to be honest. I was not blown away by this home! It was absolutely massive and had amazing views, but the finishes were only done nicely on the main floor. The basement, second, and third (yes third), stories left much to be desired. I always encourage people to build smaller homes with more high-end features all around. It gives your home more of a designer feel. Size does not always equal high design. Here are some pics of what I thought were highlights of the home.</div>

My husband and I try to make it to the St. George and Utah Valley Parades every year. It is a great chance to get inspired with interior design and architecture. Also, we have been using it as an opportunity to get to know the local builders and home designers so that if we decide to build this fall we will have an idea of who to use. I took pictures of every home that was worthy to blog about so keep checking in to see more!<br />
<br />
The first home I'd like to introduce you to is located in the Heritage Hills community in Alpine, UT. Nic and I love this neighborhood for the amazing views of the valley. We were actually close to buying a lot there until we found out how strict the CC&Rs (Codes, Covenants, and Restrictions) were which would make building there far exceed our budget. Depressing... I know. I really loved this home for its uniqueness, Asian influence, and clean lined design. Let me know what you think! And if you have a question about anything please leave a comment!<br />
<br />
Disclaimer: Please excuse the people milling around in all of the pictures. It was a very crowded day that we went to this home and people love to walk right in front of your camera!<br />

One of my favorite desserts for the summer is Banana Pudding. It was always a staple at our family BBQs. This recipe is incredibly simple and does not require you to turn on the oven which is perfect for the hot summer weather. Enjoy!<br />
<br />
What You Need:<br />
<br />
1 Package of JellO Instant Banana Pudding Mix<br />
3 Bananas (medium sized)<br />
30-40 Nilla Wafers<br />
1 8 oz Tub of Cool Whip<br />
2 1/2 cups of milk<br />
<br />
Serves 14 1/2 cup servings (but I am positive everyone will want more than a 1/2 cup because it is just that delicious.)<br />
<br />
Step 1: Whisk together the pudding mix and milk in a medium sized bowl for 2 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Step 2:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Slice your 3 bananas. I sliced mine about a 1/4 inch in thickness. Set them aside for now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
Step 3: Get your serving bowl ready (needs to hold at least 2 qts). I usually like to use a trifle to serve this pudding in because it looks beautiful layered. Put a layer of half of the Nilla wafers on the bottom of your bowl. Flat side up. *I used 40 Nilla wafers. 15 on the first layer and 25 for the second. If you don't want as many wafers use 30.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Step 4: Layer half of your banana slices on top of the wafers.<br />
<br />

<br />
Step 5: Spoon half of the pudding into the dish and spread evenly. Then repeat steps 3,4, and 5.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXPvaQY1ZVhJtt1UrbyBK5n8ja61Q_wKc330_BKN3JOwOrl16leNFFk5-ey1LDuFIFBOu_A8SJqZYh0upwfkR3hfVI5qsVrAyHaHU8_v3pK0oSznbZh_w8_YMax6ktg9rAFk5lKLxSNoE/s1600/IMG_3470.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXPvaQY1ZVhJtt1UrbyBK5n8ja61Q_wKc330_BKN3JOwOrl16leNFFk5-ey1LDuFIFBOu_A8SJqZYh0upwfkR3hfVI5qsVrAyHaHU8_v3pK0oSznbZh_w8_YMax6ktg9rAFk5lKLxSNoE/s320/IMG_3470.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Step 6: All of your wafers, bananas and pudding should be used at this time. To finish the pudding top with your tub of Cool whip. Then refrigerate for at least 3 hours. I suggest 4-5 to let all the flavors really blend together.<br />

Then you're done! I added some mint leaves and grapes as garnish. This pudding is a crowd pleaser every time I make it. I hope you enjoy it as well!<br />

I found this recipe on foodnetwork.com. The Food Network is one of my favorite places to find new recipes to try. The only problem is that there are so many recipes that it takes forever to decide what to make! My favorite thing to do is to read the reviews. I have found that usually recipes require some tweaking depending on your taste and reviews can be incredibly helpful.<br />
<br />
First let me tell you that my husband LOVES bacon! This recipe is specifically for my husband for Father's Day. He loves bacon and he loves peanuts so what could be a better combo? This is a special treat for him since he will be the future Father to my children and I love him for that! I can't imagine that this is very healthy so it will have to be saved for special occasions only. I will be making this on Sunday. Make sure to check back to see my review of the recipe. You should try it out too and give me your feedback!<br />
<br />
(I have changed the recipe slightly as some of the reviews have suggested. You can find the recipe in its original form <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/peanut-butter-chocolate-chip-bacon-cookies-recipe/index.html">here</a>) <br />

<br />
<ul class="kv-ingred-list1">
<li class="ingredient">1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/4 teaspoon baking soda
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/4 teaspoon baking powder
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
</li>
<li class="ingredient">Pinch of chipotle or ancho chile powder (Don't leave this out! It makes the taste more interesting)</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
</li>
<li class="ingredient">8 strips of bacon</li>
<li class="ingredient">4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/2 cup granulated sugar
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1 large egg
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1 teaspoon vanilla extract
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/2 cup roughly chopped honey- roasted peanuts
</li>
<li class="ingredient">1/2 cup bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chips</li>
</ul>
<h2>
Directions</h2>
<div class="instruction">
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2
baking sheets with parchment paper. Combine the flour, baking soda,
baking powder, cinnamon, <a class="crosslink" href="http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/chili-powder/index.html">chile powder</a> and salt in a large bowl.
</div>
<br />
Chop the bacon into small even sized squares about the size of a chocolate chip (This will ensure every bit is crispy). Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate;
reserve 2 tablespoons of the drippings and set aside to cool. Crumble
the bacon, discarding any chewy bits.
<br />
<br />
Beat the butter and reserved bacon drippings in a large bowl with a
mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Beat in the <a class="crosslink" href="http://www.foodterms.com/encyclopedia/peanut-butter/index.html">peanut butter</a>
until combined, about 1 minute. Beat in the granulated and light brown
sugar until creamy, about 4 minutes, then add the egg and vanilla and
beat until light and fluffy, about 2 more minutes.
<br />
<br />
Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture in 2
additions, scraping down the bowl as needed, until just combined. Stir
in the peanuts and all but 2 tablespoons each of the chocolate chips and
bacon.
<br />
<br />
Form the dough into 12 balls and arrange 2 inches apart on the
prepared baking sheets. Flatten with your fingers (the cookies will not
spread in the oven); press the reserved bacon and chocolate chips on
top. Bake until golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Let the cookies cool 2 minutes
on the baking sheets, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Store
in an airtight container for up to 3 days.<br />

In my opinion it is because of the increased interest in the Art Deco era with that classic "Hollywood Glam" look. As I've said before I would classify my style as contempo classic. I love traditional design with an updated and modern twist. The sunburst motif is a perfect example of that. It is a design that will stand the test of time yet can be done in very new ways! I'm on the look out for a sunburst mirror to hang over our bed. How would you like to incorporate a sunburst into your home? Let me give you some examples for inspiration.<br />
