I'm baaaaaaaack. :)

Hello my darlings. I know I have severely neglected the blog I started over 2 years ago. First of all, I'm sorry! Now that my apology to you is out of the way let's talk business. I mean what I'm turning this blog into. Starting from this day forth it will contain all kinds of things I love & want to share with you from recipes to beauty related reviews of products. Oh, and I'm open to constructive critism, so if there is something you would like to say or request please do. :)
I hope that you all enjoy this new journey with me. Your support means the world.

Talk to you all soon!!

Jan. 17, 2011 Mmmm Mmmm Stuffed Jalapenos!!

Cooking is something that I've grown to enjoy. As I've gotten older my palette has changed quite a bit, and I'm much more open to trying new things. Being that my other half loves spicy food and jalapenos in general I figured I'd surprise him my trying my hand at stuffed jalapenos (especially since he was just hinting around that he REALLY wanted some). You know what they say- the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. ;) I on the other hand have never tried them, but found this recipe and thought I'd share. ENJOY!
