Happy Wednesday everybody!!! or should I say potato Wednesday–you know, because I say weird things that make me chuckle and everyone else looks at me like the weirdo I am…okay so no potato Wednesday.
Honestly, these little easy cheesy bites are so darn good that I might be willing to rename Wednesday in their honor, juuuust kidding, but these are super duper delicious for sure. I’m sure most of y’all have had some form of potato skins–most likely in a bar I will assume–and they are usually crispy, but thicker than a potato chip.
These little easy cheesy potato skins turned out to be like amazingly thick round cheesy french fries. Y’all I couldn’t get enough of these guys, so I highly recommend you make these ASAP. I hope you’re having a wonderful week so far and as always thank you so much for stopping by.

- 2-4 Large Baking White Potatoes.
- 1-2 Cups of Shredded Cheddar Cheese.
- Pink Hamalayan Salt (or Sea Salt), To Taste.
- Baking Sheet & Aluminum Foil.
- Bacon Bits For Topping (Optional).
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
- Place your aluminum foil onto your baking sheet then spray your foil with non-stick spray and set aside.
- Thoroughly wash your potatoes then dry off.
- Now cut the ends off of your potatoes and throw away, then slice your potatoes into 1/2 an inch (thinner or thicker to your liking) slices and place on your baking sheet.
- Now sprinkle your salt all over your potato slices and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are starting to brown.
- Remove your potatoes from the oven and sprinkle them all liberally with cheese, then place your potatoes back into the oven for about 3 more minutes until cheese is completely melted.
- If you want bacon bits on your potatoes sprinkle them on now and enjoy!!!
Anyways, back to ice cream…and today’s ice cream is so extra special because of the abundant key lime pie flavors throughout. Oh yes, key lime pie ice cream y’all, this stuff is heavenly. This ice cream is cold, sweet, rich and just enough of that amazing key lime pie tartness to it that is just delectable, and did I mention easy to make? yeah, so easy to make y’all. 
Unfortunately I had to share this ice cream with friends & family, otherwise I would have eaten every last drop of this amazing dessert, for reals. I hope everyone has such an amazing day today and thank you so much for stopping by! 
mix, mix, mix…
into your ice cream maker…
and enjoy!!!
and Saturdays you know the next day is Sunday which is kind of tainted knowing your weekend is almost over—my brain is weird but makes sense to me haha. On to the fun y’all, this cocktail. This lovely little libation is made with fresh grapefruit juice, tequila (hey-oh!) and club soda (love me some bubbles). 
I definitely needed to add some extra sugar to this because as I’m sure you are aware grapefruit isn’t exactly the sweetest fruit in the world, so feel free to add some more sweetness (or tequila hehe). Thank you so much for stopping by, Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful dads out there (including my own) and have a fabulous weekend!!! 
grapefruit juice & club soda into your glass to mix…
Tequila…
and lime juice…

You know it’s crazy bananas hot when you get in your car and you have to immediately take your earrings out because they start to burn your ears due to heating up so quickly-for reals. 
Anyways, back to this pie (or pies because this recipe makes two), but I love just about anything strawberry, anything (well, not asparagus of course) with Cool Whip, and hello no-bake, and because they need to be frozen they are sooo deliciously cold. 
Also, this recipe makes so much it makes more than enough for 2 pies, you could totally use deep dish pie crusts if you wanted because it makes so much. 
This pie is so deliciously rich and wonderfully sweet and tart, definitely a must make. Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!!

I have been seeing variations of this recipe on different fitness Youtubers that I follow and though I’m usually suspicious at how tasty ‘healthy’ or ‘high protein’ recipes actually are, these were not disappointing, at all. These are crazy satisfying, super easy to make, and the perfect mixture of salty and sweet, and hello peanut butter. 
Also, there is zero guilt in eating these, because these are pretty darn healthy for you too. Do note that these little protein peanut butter balls definitely need to be kept refrigerated because they tend to be a bit soft at room temperature, but other than that these are awesome. Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!! 
all chopped up…
everything in the bowl, protein powder, agave nectar, maple extract, peanut butter, almond milk, nuts…
all mixed up…
rolled out…
and enjoy!!!
Oh, and a cold in the heat of summer… garbage again! Sigh, I won’t continue to bore y’all with my complaining 
I too also love the fact that I can feel no guilt in indulging in one of these if I feel like it (I hear Gin has wonderful healing properties hehe). Anyways, I’m off to drink green tea and binge watch Tom Hiddleston movies (also very healing I hear). Have a wonderful weekend and thank you soooo much for stopping by!
shake, shake, shake 
then enjoy!!!
Due to the fact that it’s also insanely hot already, melon, any kind of melon sounded amazing. Am I the only one that absolutely craves melon so much during the summer? 
It’s so cold and refreshing, mmmm, and because salty and sweet is my absolute favorite combo, I figure why not enjoy it this way right? Obviously, I didn’t invent this combo, but one I’ve been wanting to try for so long, and y’all I absolutely couldn’t stop eating this. 
Cold, sweet, salty, and super duper easy to make, for reals, just go ahead and make this. Have a wonderful day y’all and thank you so much for stopping by!

Which honestly is fine with me because it’s so much better than the incessant negative/sad/depressing stuff that so many people I know seem to post constantly, am I right? Sheesh, anyways, back to the awesome quick cooking videos, this recipe for a Strawberry Pretzel Salad kept popping up in my feed for 3 solid days, and just knew I needed to make it, ASAP…
…Come on, pretzel/butter crust, cream cheese layer, then fresh strawberries & Jell-O as the topping?! Oh yeah, a must make…not gonna lie, I really debated on changing up the name a bit because this really couldn’t be any further from a salad, but oh well haha. 
Thanks so much for stopping by and really hope you can make this soon for your next summer time gathering, have a wonderful day!

Anyways, these are a pretty basic recipe, except with the addition of maple syrup, which I gotta tell you gives these cookies such a nice soft chewy texture, and the mini M&M’s?! eye rolling good y’all.

The only good thing about time flying by like crazy is that my next trip to Disney World will be here before we know it…yes, I have a Disney countdown app on my phone, yes I look at it quite frequently, yes I’m an 
Anyways, I could talk Disney stuff all day so let’s move on to what we’re really here for, food, and most importantly today, mini desserts! I’ve had some version of this recipe continue to pop up in my Pinterest feed for forever, so I figured it was about dang time to make them, because they looked not only super delicious but super duper cute…cute goes a long way with food in my book. 
Y’all, these were so moist, and flavorful, especially with the brown sugar oozing down these little guys (my apologies, I said moist & ooze in the same sentence…on a food blog, ew). Anyways, these were darn easy to make, and soooo tasty, especially with a scoop or 5 of vanilla ice cream, noms! Have a wonderful day & thank you so much for stopping by!
