Wednesday Overload!

Hello lovelies! There's lots going on the blog today!  {Disclaimer: LONG POST with lots of pictures ahead!}
First things first,  I must tell you that this will be my last post on the blog until Tuesday.  :( But have no fear,  I have five wonderful ladies filling in for me while I'm gone and I know that you are going to enjoy their posts!   Now, you're probably wondering where I'm going.  I am taking a small ROADTRIP to Massachusetts to see my lover fave, Jason Aldean, of course!  I will really only be gone Friday-Sunday but I thought it would be nice to have a few of my favorite ladies guest blog and it will also give me a chance to catch up on everyone's blogs when I get back!  I will miss all of you but will be happy to return Tuesday with the first installment of Tastes & Travels!

We're ready!
There's no need to say anymore.  Y'all know that  I ♥ him and have been a dedicated fan for 4+ years.
PICTURES from the last few concerts!

Now for What I Ate Wednesday with my blogging bestie, Jenn from Peas and Crayons.

Click the button to join in :)

Last week, we celebrated my sister's birthday at Don Ricardo's, our favorite Mexican Restaurant.  




We had dessert and birthday cake too, of course!  I made our favorite cake, a CHOCOLATE CHIP BUNDT CAKE!  It is seriously the best cake I've ever eaten! You can find the recipe here


Yesterday, I made one of Jenn's recipes! I saw a recipe on her blog called Fiesta Quinoa.  I have never tried quinoa and thought this was a great recipe for me to try.  I followed Jenn's recipe and served it the same way she did with guacamole (my fave).  Let me tell you ... it was delicious! I loved it! It was really good and I'm glad I tried it.  (You can find Jenn's recipe here)



I also did some baking yesterday.  It was my last day of Spring Break so I thought I would make some goodies to bring to school.  These recipes are courtesy of my baking friend, Danielle.  You can find her awesome blog, Hugs and Cookies xoxo here.


Do you like to bake?  What is your favorite thing to make?


I'm also joining Olivia at For Me for Wish I Was Here Wednesday.


I know that there is a lot of hype surrounding the Royal Wedding but I can't help wishing that I was in London celebrating with the royal family.  Who wants to crash the wedding with me? ;)

If you made it to the end of this crazy long post, you truly are a bloggy friend.   :)
That's it for me.  Hope you'll visit my blog and enjoy the guest posts while I'm gone.  
I'll miss you all!  See you soon! xo
