Cupcakes & Weekend Fun

So, here is the big 'unveil' of the cupcakes that I made on Friday:

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes
Now, if you're interested in making these cupcakes, this is where I found the recipe.
You could also do whatever you want to do -
make your favorite cookie dough and pair with your favorite chocolate cupcake recipe, you probably could do that.
The recipe given is slightly less time consuming, and is probably considered by Martha Stewart as
cheating.
I don't have anything against cheating (at least when it comes to these cupcakes), because, well...
I cheated.
I am going to say that these are one of the best cupcake recipes that I've made.
Other favorites are some by Martha Stewart, which tends to be my go-to cupcake book.

So other than cupcakes our weekend was full of BBQ's, banjos, friends, food & drinks.
We also had some time to do some organizing in our office
(which tends to be our go-to clutter room)
some chores, and Stryker time.
Yes, Stryker time does matter...Spuz I love but he doesn't really care for me much so I'm good.

Stryker & I
Overall it was a fun weekend since we got to spend some time with some friends of ours we really haven't gotten to spend a lot of time with...
And got to meet some new people, which is always fun when you're in a location
with lots of people who have the same job as your husband.
It's nice to be able to relate.

Today I'm going to try and get some stuff done around the house, and call my mom...
Three hour time differences can be killer.

I hope everyone has a great monday! ♥
