Kitchen...Almost Complete!

It has been several weeks since my last post.  My last post revealed happiness and eagerness that our kitchen remodel was beginning.  Now, five weeks later...my tune has changed.  This sucks!  Not having a sink, using makeshift countertops, and piles of kitchen items in my dining room makes one very overwhelmed and unhappy.  I have occupied my time by browsing my favorite website, Pinterest, and reading the steamy Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy by EL James.  (Highly recommended)  We will be completing the kitchen next week and I hope to be back on my regular routine of cooking and baking with great vigor.

To release some cooped up energy, here is another top 5 list.  Enjoy!

1.  Warm Bean Dip - Holly at Life as a Lofthouse posted a great bean dip that has been a huge hit at my house.  In fact, I have passed on the recipe to several friends and co-workers  It is quick, easy,  and OH-SO-YUMMY!

2.  Golden Graham S'more Bars - Stephanie at Macaroni and Cheesecake posted some delicious treats that were a huge hit at my Wrestlemania party!  I made these quick and easy treats to please my husband and his wrestling fans...BEST RECIPE EVER!   Using the Golden Graham cereal takes me back to my childhood where I could eat a huge bowl daily.  The sugar overload is definitely missed at my older age. ;)

3.  BIG BLUE NATION - In celebration of my beloved University of Kentucky Wildcats and their National Championship, I found this great Polyvore style collage liesasumner.  Just for fun!

4.  Sangria - Mochachocolata Rita (from Hong Kong) created this amazing sangria with strawberries, wine, sprite, and a few other ingredients.  What is not to love?  I'm just waiting for some long summer nights to make a batch and sit on the porch.  Cheers!

5.  Golden Flowers Ring - The great website Ruche has a fabulous ring that I had to purchase immediately.  It was only $9.99 and SSSOOOOOOO cute.  Check out my personal pic.  

Hope I inspired you...laters!
