I Have an Announcement to Make..

Fact About Me Friday is no more.

It not because I'm a quitter its just because, well there are just so many other great link ups on Fridays and I like joining in and as easy as it was to add some fact it just wasn't working out. Maybe one day Ill have a link up party to stick with! Plus I can tell you more about me any day! 

Now moving on I have some exciting news!

I was awarded the Versatile Blogger Award last week from the beautiful Becca from A Blonde's Logic!


There are some Official Rules of The Award:
- Thank the award-giver and link back to them in your post.
- Tell your readers 7 things about yourself.
- Give this award to up to 15 recently discovered bloggers.
- Contact those bloggers and let them in on the exciting news.


Well lookie there what a qwa-winki-dink Im still gonna be sharing some facts about my self today!

1. I LOVE the Today Show! I watch it everyday if I can!  I cant particularly pin why I like it so much but I just do!
(Meredith isn't on the show anymore but you get the picture)

2. My favorite Disney Princess is Ariel. It may or may not have to do with the fact that we both have red hair! ;)

3. I was only in 10th grade for a few weeks and then skipped up to 11th! So I obviously graduated a year early, I don't know how I did it exactly but somehow I was able to move up only having to take one summer English class.

4. I am a cuddle bug! I love to cuddle with my man! Its actually very rare for us to simply be sitting by each other and not at least holding hands and I love that about us!!

5. My favorite breakfast right now is a bowl of granola, yogurt and blueberries all mixed together.

6. I played the Clarinet from 6th grade until 10/11th grade.

7. One of my favorite drinks is Green Tea! Sweet Tea also one of my favorites but If I have both in the fridge, you can bet Green Tea is what I have in my cup!


Now I would like to continue passing this award too...

Here are my Facts about me this week

1. I have a furbaby named Stitch! 
He is a Chihuahua and I got him when he was just a few weeks old! He is now 10 years old, but you would never believe it if you met him! He is still just as energetic as the first day I brought him home! He has quite the personality and his favorite human food is popcorn! He is an crazy little fellow but I still love the little booger with all my heart!

2. I can do a mean British accent! 
My freshman year of college I lived in an all girl dorm and we would always talk to each other with British accents. I did it so much that I became really good at it! So good in fact that when I was a waitress I would occasionally talk with a British accent to my customers and convince them I was from London! I want to go there soo bad and see if I could fit in!

3. I am a Mac
I have nothing major against PCs, I used to be one. I got a MacBook as my first laptop and I don't think I will ever be able to go back! I like how simplified and easy it is to use and its great for school and of all the projects I have to do! It even calls me "Beautiful Woman" when it needs my attention! (who would ever want to give that up?! haha)

What are you?!

4. I LOVE cookie dough! 
Like L-O-V-E it!! I could seriously eat a whole roll in one setting! (its bad I know)

This past Sunday I made Cookie Dough Truffles (yes you read that right) to eat for the bachelorette finale. They are so good I have to share them with you!

I got the idea from a pin I pinned on Pinterest a while back and I followed the link but it they were made from scratch and I just didn't have that kind of time so I made my own version. If you would like the made from scratch version by Lindsay and Taylor you can find it HERE

This was the easiest recipe I have ever made! and I cant even begin to describe how yummy they were!

All you need is a roll of cookie dough and some dark chocolate morsels. (I used the Nestle brand for both ingredients)

1. Pinch off cookie dough from the roll and make it into a ball then place on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
2.Once you fill your tray stick it in the freezer for about 30 minutes
3. Melt the dark chocolate morsels in a bowl of some sort.
4. Dip your frozen cookie dough balls into the melted chocolate. Try to cover the cookie dough completely, you can achieve this pretty easy by twirling the chocolate around the cookie dough.
5. Place the chocolate cover cookie dough balls on wax paper and let it them cool completely
(Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator...they will be good up to a week if you can make them last that long!)

TA-DA
Cookie Dough Truffles!
I am telling ya, if you LOVE cookie dough, you need to go home right now and make these delicious babies! They would be a perfect treat to snack on this weekend! 

You should Definitely go check them out! They are both wonderful women with wonderful blogs!

Oh and speaking of weekend ^^^ I hope you have a great one of those!!
Mine will be spent packing, working, spending time with my man and family, catching up with all of you and more packing! (this is my last weekend at home!!)

I can't wait to see all your facts today! 
It is so much fun getting to know all of you more! :)
Let the Party Begin!
