Nobody Makes Nothing Alone

My sister‘s boyfriend Dan‘s sister and her fiance came for a visit from Brasil and it would be our first time meeting them :)

* aren’t they the cutest couple ever?! they were smiles the whole time! 

I decided that since brunch food was on the menu I would contribute and try to attempt a clean eating muffin recipe. One of Janetha’s actually….one that she guest posted on my blog.

NOTE TO SELF: do not substitute vanilla protein powder for chocolate protein powder and then try adding cinnamon to cover the taste AND then grab the cumin by accident and toss mass amounts of it into a peach muffin recipe. EPIC FAIL <—- my worse to date.

I’ve surprisingly eaten about 3 muffins – I’m not a waster. They’re moist with a cumin and cinnamon overdoes after taste :P

—————————————

Once at my moms we got to meet Vicky and Lucas and we all had a great time :) I really liked them.

* note the placement of Dan’s mug over his sister’s chest ;) lol

Nic made the French toast! 

I smothered mine in natural maple syrup and grabbed every ounce of fruit I could fit on my plate. I also treated myself to some bacon because it had been far too long since I last had it :)

The afternoon was filled with such awesome family time that I don’t want to bore you to death with hundreds of photos. I do however, want to show you Lucas’ shirt and how awesome it is :) *it’s the title of this post! 

So true. I’m glad to be surrounded by such amazing people in my life and in this blog world :) Thank YOU! #SpreadTheLove

Oops we forgot to add some Logan….

Questions:

1. favourite “brunch” food?? 

I will always love eggs benedict! YUM but french toast is a close second. 

2. what’s your number one food fail?? please tell me I’m not the only one who rushes through recipes and ruins them ;)

I also made cauliflower bread sticks (recipe to follow) and I screwed it up too. Don’t worry I’ll post the recipe MINUS my failure and it’ll taste amazing – promise :D  

3. do you wear shirts with quotes/words on them?? what does your favourite one say??

My only shirt with words on it happens to be my favourite worded shirt and it says “Make It Stop” I love wearing it on days when that’s applicable to everything ;)  

4. do you have a good support system??

  1. Once upon a time I was making a pasta salad. All went well till I added the chocolate mini-chips. Before the pasta had totally cooled down. It tasted fine, as long as you were eating blindfolded.

    My favourite brunch food is what someone else cooks.

  2. Yes, they are the cutest couple ever! I love shirts with quotes:) This is my favorite shirt quote:
    “New pair of running shoes: $100
    Race entry fee: $75
    Crossing the finish line before my man: Priceless!”

    So true, so true:)
    Glad you are having great family time:)

  3. Eggs Benedict is my favorite too. I have an excellent french toast casserole that I must send to you some time. I’m a food waster – wah – Peter doesnt like that about me ;)

  4. 1. Bacon and eggs
    2. Pound cake that I used the wrong type of flour because I forgot to label my canisters
    3. I used to wear shirts with quotes but it’s been awhile
    4. I’m a little biased but I believe I have the best support system!

    Precious picture of Logan as usual!

    • I love bacon and eggs :) the classic breakfast so yummy. and I’m so happy you have a good support system. I think that’s the most important thing anyone can ever have…..other than self-love ;)

  5. Your family is the best!
    LOVE eggs benedict!!!! There is a restaurant in our town that makes the best eggs benedict ever!
    Love that shirt! Did he make it? I don’t think I have any like that. :/
    Well the muffins look good at least!

    • Thanks :) Vicky and Lucas were so cool. Plus Lucas doesn’t speak much English so he would yell out “closed caption” whenever he wanted a translation ;) LOL

      He didn’t make it but coincidentally his mom is a fashion designer and he works in the fashion industry :)

  6. My sister is the queen of food fails! She once made cookies without the baking soda….they looked and tasted awful. Even the dog wouldn’t eat them! I’m a huge corned beef hash lover when we go out to eat breakfast….like lick my plate!

    • Don’t they?? every time I’d look at them I’d want to eat one….they were moist and amazing …until you bit into them and tasted cumin ;P lol

      MMMM me too! I love hashbrowns.

Add some awesome...
