Halloween

So idk how this happened, but i don't actually have any pictures of me legitimately in my halloween costume :*( I do have some that I took the night before though in the most exciting part of my costume.. the TUTU!!!! :) but for my actual costume i went as an 80s ballerina, so imagine that tutu with a tie-die shirt, side ponytail, sparkly headband, bright blue running shorts, purple leggings, and fishy converse. Basically it was the awesomest costume ever lol. So the night before Halloween i went to a stake dance and danced with a guy dressed as CHARIZARD!!! so exciting. lol Then on Halloween i handed out candy to little kids, went to Chipotle to get a free burrito, then went to a haunted house, went to another dance, and then watched a really scary movie- The Haunting in Connecticut. My recommendation? DON'T WATCH IT!!!! It's SCARY!!!! :P So i realized that i didn't take a picture of my epic pumpkin. But don't worry it was epic. We carved it to look like a cow, but no one thought it actually looked like a cow... so we painted it, and it was AWESOME! Ok. Then i started looking through my pictures and forgot to say that during the week I also decorated cookies at a building activity. I also went to the volleyball game on Thursday and Cosmo was dressed up as DARTH VADER!!!!!! hahaha and spiderman but i didn't get a picture of that.. :P

So i downloaded GIMP which is basically like photoshop but free :) which is way cool. Anyways, I've been having fun with it so i thought i would upload some of the pictures that i played with on here..

Homecoming!!!

homecoming was last week, and lets just say that the dance was a lot more fun than the football game... :P Anyways, my friend AJ asked me and we went with another couple, Jonathan and Kamie to Olive Garden and then the casual dance which was at the LOFT a new club that was way cool. We ate a ton of food and got glow in the dark body paint at the loft from BYUSA. It was an awesome night, but Jonathan and I felt kinda sick so we left early and watched Madagascar 2 which was a lot of fun. But the way cool part was that Paul Mitchell Beauty School came to BYU to do girl's hair, make-up, and nails for FREE on Friday afternoon. It wasn't hugely advertised my the girl who organized it is in the Relief Society Presidency so our ward found out about it. I went with my roommate Emily and it was a TON of fun :) Now the best part.. pictures!!

french manicure that the girl free styled!! :D

So have you ever loved your roommate more than i love mine right now? I don't think you can, because she (Emily) made the MOST DELICIOUS CONFERENCE BREAKFAST EVER. Think you can top it? I think NOT!!! What she made is called an Apple Pancake, and can I just say, we ate almost the entire thing in one sitting, just going back for more as we listened to Saturday Morning Session of Conference. :) If you think i'm exaggerating, I'm, not you can see for yourself because here's the picture of the DELECTABLE treat we had.. oh I can't wait til she makes it again....

If you would like the recipe, here it is.. I'm pretty sure all you GF substitution whizzes out there could easily find a way to substitute the 1 T of flour in the recipe to make it GF so then you could partake in the utter heaven that this pancake is.. :D

Baked Apple Pancake
Serves 6

5 tablespoons butter, melted, divided
3 eggs, lightly beaten
3/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour
2 small apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons brown sugar, lightly packed
3 tablespoons powdered sugar

1. Heat the oven to 450°. Combine 2 tablespoons of melted butter with the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and flour. Mix the batter by hand or in a food processor. Set aside.

2. Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter with the apple slices in a 10-inch oven-proof skillet until the apples are sizzling and slightly cooked. Pour in the batter. Sprinkle the top with brown sugar and bake until well browned and puffed, 20 to 25 minutes.

3. Dust with powdered sugar. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.

True Blue Football

ok. so in the past 2 weeks i've gone to TWO football games, plus True Blue football. We lost to FSU but decisively beat CSU!!!! YES!!! Anyways, i figured i should probably put some pictures up, first are the ones from the football game. Here's the weird part. Bryndee (the one with long blonde hair), and Derek (the kid with the hat) , who are cousins are also the kids of my Dad's best friends growing up. And we didn't even know it until my family started creeping on my football pictures on facebook lol. :)

So True Blue Football is on Helaman field and it's basically a giant slip 'n' slide down the hill covered in BLUE FOAM!!! it was AMAZING!!! as you can tell from the pictures.. i was SOO blue it was kinda hilarious. It was a wonderful use of a Wednesday evening, altho by the end of the night we were all freezing cold!!!

covered in foam!!!

like our messy bathtub??

Allie (my roommate), and me!

Temple Square

So my friend and I went down to Temple Square because I had to do an assignment for my astronomy class involving the Salt Lake Temple. Basically it was just look at all the sun, moon, and star stones, and the Big Dipper. It was a lot of fun, and basically I just took a buttload of pictures. Unfortunately my camera died before I could take pictures of the Conference Center which is a bummer cuz it's super pretty and we went there. So instead of posting all of my pics on here, since I took like a LOT, I'm just going to link this to my facebook album, or try to and then you can look at them on there cuz I like them all to much to pick favorites :) Sorry if there are repeats, I took a bunch of pictures from the Observation Deck before I realized there were holes in the plexiglass to take better pictures from and I was too lazy to try and delete the doubles hahaha. But I will give you 2 teaser pics... and here's the link to my album. I believe you can look at it even if you don't have facebook.

SPOON ME!!

Basically, Spoon Me is the coolest place ever. It's a frozen yogurt shop in Provo and it's very DELICIOUS!!!! Plus, fairly nutritious, especially if you get the right toppings. It's really cute and fun, and everyone should try it at some time in their lives. They're kinda like Coldstone, except with frozen yogurt, and they don't mix it in, they just put it on the side of your yogurt, except there's no cross contamination all you GFers, unless the server just fails at life.. lol My friends and i went yesterday, and i will DEFINITELY be going back soon :) They do all sorts of cool promotions, including having a month of names, and if your name is on there, with proof of ID you can get a FREE spoon me creation. Their smoothies are also to die for. Oh, yah, and did i mention? Their spoons are EDIBLE!!!!!!!!! Not super tasty, but edible nonetheless lol Here's the website http://spoonme.com/
