Thank you Ms. Jessica, for dusting off a gem from my past!
Do I smell super awesome obscure Halloween costume?? Perhaps :)
While on the topic of muppets, I highly recommend checking out Muppets: The Green Album. A bunch of current artists rerecorded classic songs from The Muppet Show and various movies. It's definitely worth a listen!

Apple of my eye
I feel it's official, summer is coming to an end. Not saying that's a bad thing, to be honest I'm looking forward to a break from the humidity.
You see fall equals sweatshirt weather and I loves me a good hoodie. Fall also means the harvest season is here! Apples, squash and all sorts of yummy root veggies and tubers are on the way!
In fact, pictured above are the first apples of the season! I am so stoked but I can't decide whether to make them into something or eat them (which I'm pretty sure will happen during the decision process)
Either way stay tuned for some apple-y goodness :)

New phones are fun!

I finally have a new aged phone and for the first time since senior year in high school I feel up to snuff with current trends. So hears to my fancy-pants new iPhone and all the on the go blogging goodness!

Something Reeks of Excitement!!
As you are all aware I love me some good ol' zombie fun. I just bought my tickets for this years Zombie Pub Crawl in Minneapolis. It's the seventh annual one and it's expected to be bigger than ever!! (though last year had somewhere around 10,000 or 12,000 people which was insanity) This will be my third year and I'm super pumped!! If you've never gone or thought about going I highly recommended it! Sweet bars, awesome bands, drink specials and amazing costumes... oh and tons of blood :)
A small sample. Yes those are ALL zombies |

Cabiny Inspiraition: French Toast Redux
Last week was a week full of great food! There is a wonderful grill up at the cabin the Hubby and I had no shortage of ways to utilize said grill. One that I'm most proud of: Grilled French Toast with a grilled fruit compote.

Unbelievable and Fudgey: Black Bean Brownies (and Gluten Free To Boot!)
Again, I'm not big on the sweets... that being said when my sweet tooth rears it's ugly head I usually am let jonesin' for something nostalgic. Seriously I think the last time I had a brownie I was still in grade school.

It Like My Childhood and Adulthood Combined!!
If you have the time please check out Organ Trail by The Men Who Wear Many Hats, a group of indie game developers. If you were a child of the 90's like I was then you'd love this game. Be prepared for awesomeness!!!
Celebrating 1 Year With Mr. Wonderful
Time sure flies when you're married to you best friend :)
We decided that since we never ended up doing a cake cutting, we would attempt to tare into our purdy little cake that had been waiting patiently over the last year in the freezer.
While the texture had changed, the flavor was the same! It was as good as I remembered :)
Happy First Anniversary Baby!

Rise and Shine Like You Mean It: Moving Forward Starts with Breakfast
Hello cats and kittens, tonight I found myself with a lot of unexpected time on my hands and no idea of how I should spend it. Seeing as I've been rather lazy in regards to posting I figured I'd get my ass in gear.
