According to Sarah....

I have this friend, we'all call her Sarah.  Because well, her name is Sarah.  Poor Sarah has heard me talk about food for the past week more than anybody would like.  She humors me though because she's sort of an okay friend.

Anyway, Sarah believes I've become a foodie over the last week.  She is trying to teach me the lingo so I actually sound like one.  Poor Sarah is from Washington and doesn't understand that water is actually pronounced wooder.  She also doesn't know what water ice is.  Let's take a moment to feel bad for Sarah.

I've become a huge fan of Pinterest as of late.  It has countless recipes for things I can eat.  Now my diet contains low carb and high protein.  I want to make every bite count. If it's not absolutely scrumptious it's not going in my mouth.  What's the point of eating an okay meal?

This weekend I baked oatmeal muffins, chocolate pumpkin muffins and apple butternut squash soup. I also cooked tomato basil soup on Thursday.  I didn't taste the oatmeal muffins yet but everything else was absolutely worth eating!  The chocolate muffin I only stole a tiny bite of Zoey's.

Here's the recipe for the apple butternut squash soup:

I think next time I'll put 2-3 apples in it so I can actually taste them.  The soup was outstanding, but you can't detect the apple taste.

Disclaimer: this recipe is for donuts but I don't have a donut pan.  I may invest int one of These at some point because who doesn't love mini donuts?

Sorry, I don't have a picture of the ones I made.  The girls had a blast putting the toppings on them.  They ate them right up warm out of the oven.

And with that, I say goodnight. Always nice to leave people salivating.
