Bridal Luncheon

I am going to start catching up in the blog world...I have so so so much to catch up on! Friday morning seems like ages ago. We got up and got ready and headed to Hasta La Pasta in the POURING rain. I guess it should have been a sign of what was to come but...I wasn't thinking like that I was just so excited that it was the Friday before OUR WEDDING! We went to eat and had a wonderful time and by the time we got done eating the sun was shining again...The Whole GangThey made us a special menu @ Hasta La Pasta! : ) So cute

After the luncheon it was off to the house to finish packing for the honeymoon and to get ready for Friday afternoon's ceremony.

Today Justin and I went and got our marriage license!! SO EXICTING! My eyes watered whenever they put the finished paper down in front of us! Yippie!! Only 8 days now...

CANDY

I was in heaven!! Yesterday we went to Sams and bought all the candy for the candy bar (minus the gumballs) and boy was I loving it! The only sad thing I realized I probably am not going to get to eat much of it, I guess I will share my love. : ) Today we went and took everything for the wedding over to Shady Oaks and I told Lynne (our wedding coordinator) that I wanted a to-go bag of the candy also for our getaway. : ) Tonight I finished the parents gift, and the house party gifts. I really like them. Now all that is left is the programs and GETTING MARRIED! WHOOP!!

Oh yeah and P.S. like my new hair do!? It's a little blonde but Justin likes it blonde and it will look better with my hair do for the weddin!!

Chef in the Budding

Ya know we are getting married in 13 days but...I have been cooking away! : ) First, for the 4th of July I made peanut butter chocolate rice krispie treats! amazing!! I took the picture tonight, therefore the pan is already basically empty between Justin, Me and Kason! : ) Here is how super easy it was!!

1 cup Karo syrup
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter
5-6 cups rice krispie (store brand)
1 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Mix the Karo syrup and sugar on the stove until boiling. Stir in peanut butter until well blended. Add the rice krispies and press into a greased 9 x 13 pan. Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals and then spread across the top! Then place in the fridge until hardened! AMAZING!

Tonight I made Chicken Ranch Tacos. Jessica has been giving me all sorts of recipes she has gotten from one of her friends at work, so I decided to try this one, even though Justin wont be home until 11, his dinner will be waiting! This recipe is also SUPER easy!
1 rotisserie chicken
1 taco seasoning mix
tortilla shells
ranch dressing
shredded cheese

First pull all the meat off the already baked chicken and shred it. I used our new kitchen knive scissors and chopped away until it was shredded but it could have easily been done by hand, but I was getting some aggression out on the chicken : ) After shredding it I placed it in a big pot and added the taco seasoning and water and mixed together until all was blended. Then added a dash here and a dash there of ranch dressing and stirred it up. (so basically add ranch to your taste). Then your done! How easy is that! Then I put the chicken on the shell, added some more ranch, and some shredded cheese and chowed down! It would have been good with some lettuce also!

So there you have it, my recipes for today! I am sure I will be back in wedding mode as soon as I get back to Kingwood. There is something about being in College Station that makes me forget I am getting married in 12 days and still have 8 million little things to do!! Yippie...12 days and I will be Mrs. Knight!! Could not be happier...nothing could ruin this!! God is good and I am blessed! and oh yeah.. I AM MARRYING THE MAN OF MY DREAMS!!
