Weekend Highlights

by Lori and Michelle on June 13, 2011

We love when we have company in town, because creating meal time is so much more special.

Thanks everyone for the congrats on our parents 40th anniversary

Our morning pancake breakfast with them was a the start of many more great eats.

Gluten-free Pumpkin coffee cake

Triple layer raw tiramisu cake – this was our second attempt at a Living Tiramisu

We are pleased to announce our parents really enjoyed this cake, I think more than Lori and I did.

Glazed gluten-free chocolate cake donuts

And a new mini breakfast cake donut.

We made a lot of progress on my new place, cannot wait to show pictures, but for now we are dealing with an AC problem so things are a little hot over here, haha

In the meantime another highlight for us was being contacted my fitnessmagazine.com to be featured as one of their Fit Bloggers We Love – Thank you fitnessmagazine!!!

And on that note I guess Lori and I better go workout now.

Till next time,

Michelle

Congrats on your magazine writeup, that’s AWESOME!!!!!!

I was in a magazine write up about a month ago. I felt so special and honored and I’m sure you feel the same. You should be so proud of what you’ve accomplished with your blog!
