Prepare pancakes according to package instructions

Pour your pancake batter on a hot frying pan

Place cooked bacon strips on top

Flip that baby

and Voilà

 

Surfing Weekend Trip {Carlsbad, CA}

 

We had a fabulous time camping in Carlsbad this weekend. It was so nice to get away and enjoy the beach, surfing and hanging with friends. One of my favorite things to do is huddle around a campfire, chat with friends and cook smores. I was also excited to tryout some new pins from pinterest -a cheaters peach cobbler, banana boats, indian espresso and bacon pancakes!

 

 

Tracy Anderson {15 Minute Toning Workout}

Hey guys, here is a repost from the fabulous Goop by Gwyneth Paltrow. I thought this was a really fun 15 minute workout. It's great for toning arm, legs and abs without the bulkiness! And we can all spare 15 min a day right? Easy peasy.

My Bachelorette Party

Here are some pictures from my bachelorhette party in August.  My lovely bridesmaids and a few friends took me on a weekend getway to Palm Springs! We had an awesome time laying out by the pool, having dinner at PF Chang's and spending some quality girl time together. It's just what I needed before the the wedding week rush!

 Lounging and loving life.

We got the great idea to see how many of us we could squeeze into our bath-tub.

It looks like I have a bubble goatee.^

Some good, clean fun.

Getting our dance on with about 50 other Brides.^ 

 

And on the way home we got to visit an old friend. My parents would always stop off at the T-Rex on our way through Cabazon when we were kids. We'd get to go into the belly of the Long Neck Dino shop and walk across the street for a date milkshake before setting off on the road again.

 

Fun times. Thank you to all my girls for an unforgettable weekend. You guys are the best.
