PARTY DAY!

Hello friends, old and new!
Welcome to my little piece of the blogging world. The day is finally here: it's The Ultimate Blog Party! Yipppeee!

Ultimate Blog Party 2009

Right now I am sitting here with my jammies on, sipping some yummy hot apple cider, ready to party and excited to meet and mingle with all of you :)

Allow me to introduce myself:
Hey! I'm Sara.
I am a twenty-something stay at home mom to three little monkeys.
Our big boy is 5 years old:

Our big girl turns two in a couple weeks:

And our baby girl will turn one in May.

So, what do I blog about?

My little munchkins who keep me laughing....and laughing.....and laughing...
My hubby who still keeps my heart-a-fluttering
My adventures in the kitchen
My faith. I am truly being molded everyday into more of who I'm called to be. My God definitely keeps me growing!

If you want to know more random things about me check out this post.

Now enough about me. Who are you? I am so excited to get to know all of you this week.

As hostess for my first party day I thought I'd share a yummy treat with you- well not exactly share, more like tease you with, because you don't actually get to taste it..... But my heart really is in the right place, if you were here in my kitchen I'd gladly share with you! I certainly don't need to devour the entire thing :)


Delicious Triple-Layer Brownie Cake.
It's so easy to make. And sooooo yummy! Click here for the recipe.
Mmmmmm....

Now, do you want to play along? Tell me- what's your favorite dessert recipe. I am always on the lookout for new tummy pleasin' recipes :)

Oh, and P.S: I can't wait to get to know you guys! Thanks for stopping by!

Don't forget to mingle with more new friends at 5 Minutes for Mom

    Mmmmmmmmmmm...brownies.

    I forgive you for posting that picture because I happen to have brownies in the kitchen (soon to be in my tummy).

    I personally love some good pan cookies-I'll be blogging about food as my Party Rule #2, so if you want the recipe, you should come on back. (Thanks for visiting the first time!)

    Have fun blog hopping!

    My favorite dessert right now is an easy recipe that my sister let me borrow. It is Oreo Truffles. Oh my they are yummy, You take an entire package of Oreo cookies and crush them up really good, You add 2 packages of cream cheese and squish it up good together, Then you start rolling it into little balls, Place them on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Place the cookie sheet filled with these yummy balls in the refrigerator let them chill. Melt Dipping chocolate(we use chocolate chips) in a microwave safe bowl, or however you choose to melt chocolate, dip these yummy balls in the chocolate and place back on the wax paper. And TahDahhh!!!! you are done.. and trust me they are Yummy!!!. Enjoy!

    Feel free to check out my blog, too! While I found the party too late to be part of the official prize giveaways, I do have a door prize at my blog: I’m giving away a free print copy of my book, “Two Snowflakes.” Here’s my address: http://twinhappyjen.blogspot.com/

    Hello Sara, it's great to meet you. Now usually I'm the one teasing people with chocolate cake and sweet treats, because I don't have just one favorite dessert recipe, I have an entire blog devoted to desserts! You are invited to participate in my next recipe roundup -- it's all about chocolate! I have a lot more going on too and I'll have another giveaway soon in April. :-)
