Who lives in a pineapple under the sea??...

It was my niece's birthday this past week and I just miss that little girl so much that I wanted to make her a "home-made" something. She is an avid watcher of that Spongebob character, so I thought I'd make her a Spongebob card, of course! Here is a pictorial of the finished product....

Yeah...it took my like 2 hours to complete :)

It's Blueberry Muffin Time!

A couple of days ago my roommate Cammie and I went for a little blueberry picking adventure. The bushes are nestled behind an older couples house in our neighboring town of Opelika. They were selling the blueberries for $5 a gallon. Pretty good deal right? Upon getting there, they let us know that 15 gallons had been picked that very morning so the bushes were a little sparse but we were able to get a 1/2 gallon each. It was tedious work but lots of fun, also wanting to mention that my room mate happens to be hilarious so it was very enjoyable to pick berries and sing loudly at the same time.
Getting to the point of my blog post, I made a a most delicious blueberry muffin recipe straight from my all time favorite chef, Paula Deen! Yes, lots of butter and sugar. Just the way I like it! ;)
Ok...I know they look like I sprinkled...dirt on them.. but it's brown sugar alright? :) They may not look too pretty but they tasted mighty fine!
