Backyard Bunny Spotting!

Each year, at some point between spring and summer, we seem to have bunnies in our backyard.

This is the first time I was able to get a picture of it so close. It helped that it was at the back door.

It did not stick around for  a long time however it was fun to see it up close! Before I knew it it had hopped away.  Fun while it lasted!

Happy Thursday!

Outdoor Cooking…Chicken Fajitas

Chicken Fajitas are one of our favorite quick and easy meals. 

The only draw back is the grease and smoke it creates inside the house, however, we have a new and improved way of doing it now.

We tried grilling it outdoors and it worked perfectly. 

No more splatter or smell in the house, which is so nice. 

And, clean up was so easy!

We served it up in flour tortillas for a

No fuss, No muss Dinner!

Just the way we like it.

Happy Tuesday!

Simply Sunday ❤️

Peanut Butter Cup Cookies

Out of sweet treats so baking was a “must” today.

Cookies sounded good and so did chocolate. It just so happened we had some peanut butter cups on hand. So, Peanut Butter Cup Cookies it was! 

YUM!

We are set for the week….woohoo!

Happy Saturday!

Apple Season

It’s the 1st day of School and the apples are on!  Our HONEY CRISP apples have been picked and they are so good. 

We did not get many this year as our little tree fell over last year due to the weight of sooo many apples. The hubs propped the tree back up in hopes it would take root again and it did not disappoint.

Sure enough, it not only took root but also produced a small bucket of delicious apples. 

We have high hopes for a much bigger crop next summer.

Happy Tuesday!

SMASH Burgers

We finally made our 1st SMASH Burgers!

Saturday we decided to give them a try since we have heard so much about them from our friends and neighbors. 

This was completely new to us since we had never had one before. All we had to go on was advice and instructions from everyone who shared their experience with us. 

We were pretty sure we understood how to do it so Mr. Wonderful set things up and prepped the hamburger, buns and condiments. I had prepared the rest of the meal ahead of time.

He smashed them flat and that was that.

Then flip, add cheese and voilà ….

….they were done!

They were not too much different however just enough to make this a new favorite. Also, they cook up quick since they are not as thick as a regular hamburger pattie. So, if the patties are premade, it does not take long to get dinner on the table. 

Also, these burgers have two patties because they are small and thin so still about the same amount.

A new favorite at our house!

Have a great Memorial Day!
