Happy Chocolate Cake Day!


I don't know who comes up with all of these crazy days. Today is Chocolate Cake Day, one day last week was Peanut Butter Day. I sure hope you remembered to celebrate. Seriously, I want the job of coming up with silly holidays. I wonder how much it pays???
Anyway, I made you some cake. You know, because I had to.
I give you: Steph's Cocoa Fudge Cupcakes - Enjoy!

Fashion Fix

 I love all things fashion and I thought it would be fun to do a fashion post once in awhile. Sound fun?
Outfit #1
Must be a halfway decent outfit because I was harassed and practically proposed to while wearing it. My husband no longer allows me to leave the house without him, ha! Just kidding....sort of.
 I am currently obsessed with boots. I try not to wear anything that I can't wear boots with! It's a problem :)  My awesome hubby got these for me for Christmas. He has great taste, I love them!

I also love dresses, but never got to wear them much in the freezing winter months. Enter LEGGINGS. My other obsession. They make it possible to wear cute dresses all year long. YAY!

This mini dress is sleeveless, so I added a fun studded cardi. I usually sort of hate cardigans on me, but I think I like this one.
So this is my outfit pick of the week. What do you think? And do you want to see anymore fashion posts?

Favorite Things and Best Ever Whoopie Pies!


1. These are hands down the best whoopie pies ever. Maybe even the best dessert ever. It's a bold claim, but you haven't tried these yet. They. Are. Amazing. It's my own special recipe - I will be sharing it soon!
2. I am a makeup junkie, and I love anything that sparkles. Enter a product called Twinkle and Shine. LOVE! Makes the eyes sparkle.
 3. There is nothing sweeter than seeing my two baby boys snuggled close together, sound asleep. Melts my heart!

4. I love spending time with my girlie, just the two of us. And I LOVE that she still loves to hug and kiss me :)
5. My new hat. My husband made me buy it because he thought I looked SO cute in it, haha! I always feel like I'm wearing a costume when I wear a hat, but I actually really like this one now!


What are some of your favorite things right now?

I'm baAck!

Well, hello again, my long lost bloggy friends! It's been awhile, huh?
Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year... Am I caught up now?
I have been having computer problems that have kept me from blogging lately. Oh. That and a couple little tiny boys that are always in my arms, and a very busy three year old in need of constant attention.  Life with infant twins and a toddler is busy for sure, but I am in absolute heaven. Seriously. I am truly loving every sleep deprived second!






I have had so many things I have wanted to share with you, but time (and priorities, see above) did not allow that to happen. I am hoping to share them with you soon. I have some fun new ideas for this blog's future too! So stay tuned! And be sure to  "like" Still Waters on Facebook. I will probably be updating that more than the blog, just because it's so fast and I can do it on my ipad while holding babies! :)
Blessings to you all!

Salty&Sweet Treats

Salty and Sweet.
Who would say this isn't a good thing?
 I have always been a fan of chocolate covered pretzels. I mean, what's not to love? Salty, crunchy, sweet. 
And chocolate and peanut butter? Psh, come on. That's a no brainer. 
And who doesn't love a great chocolate chip cookie?

Meet the result of combining these yummy things (and then some!).
Here' what you're looking at, friends. A chewy peanut butter cookie chock full of chocolate chips, pretzels, butterscotch chips, a touch of sea salt, and a little love.  :)

Go ahead tell me you don't want one.

Now head over to Still Waters on facebook and tell me what some of your fave treats are!

Family Fun Day

 We recently had some exceptionally warm weather and took full advantage of it by spending the day outdoors.  This is my new family of 5. FIVE! Still can't believe it.
We had a picnic lunch, Bella picked out her own pumpkin, we did some shopping, and just enjoyed the time together out in the sun.
Here's me with my sweet little ones. Oh how I wish time would stand still and they could stay like this forever. 
 Bella did not take her responsibility of picking her own pumpkin lightly. Trust me, she thought long and hard about it.

 Xander and Kingston next to pumpkings much larger than they are. Oh how I love these tiny babies!

 My sweet Bella. So happy that it's finally her turn to play in the tunnel of hay :)
I love getting to spend great quality time with my family, and I am feeling so very thankful that these four amazing people are mine :)
My heart is full!

Candy Bar Brownies


What do you do right after halloween when your house is filled with candy??

Make candy bar brownies, of course!
These are super simple and obviously delicious.
I mean, just look at that  fudgy brownie loaded with yummy candy. 
Are these calling your name yet?
 If you haven't gone completely overboard in your eating of halloween candy, you should still have the goodies you need to make these treats today!
Just whip up a batch of your favorite brownies and mix in 3/4 cup of your favorite chopped candy bars.  I used 3 Musketeers and Milky Ways. Pour batter in the pan and sprinkle a few more candy bars on top. (The sugar will start to caramelize in the oven making a yummy chewy mess of goodness.)
That's all folks! Told you they were easy.
Enjoy!
