Foodie Friday (updated)

{Today is Foodie Friday}

Yesterday, I looked in my refrigerator and saw a pint of fresh blueberries that were starting to go south. I wondered what I could do with them and decided to make homemade blueberry muffins. I busted out the Magnolia cookbook, found a recipe and got to cookin'.

I've never made blueberry muffins with fresh blueberries...
I think they turned out pretty good...
and looked pretty...
I've had a few (or fifty)
I'm also planning to cook a couple of yummy things this weekend...

Last week when I bought the blueberries, I also bought these
To be more specific, I bought two of these because they were buy one, get one free and I have a bunch left
so when I ran across this recipe on Pioneer Woman (& Tasty Kitchen),
I thought it would be perfect

I thought it looked uber yummy and would use some of my tomatoes.
In addition, my opinion about scallops is: Hand 'em over and nobody gets hurt!
So it really couldn't be more perfect.

I'm also planning to make burgers this weekend...fancy burgers.

Inspired by these at Twisted Root Burger Co...

Last week I also bought some ground buffalo (did you know it is leaner than chicken?). I plan to grill it up and dress it with Hatch green chilies, cheese and guacamole. My mouth is watering right now thinking about it!

Finally, I plan to make some Easter cookies this weekend (if the lazy bug doesn't set in)

{Happy Friday!}

Update: I was really looking forward to those burgers and making bunny cookies this weekend; however, I'm sorry to report that I just made the pasta & scallops for supper and have died and gone to heaven!

Your muffins look yummy! I saw that scallops recipe on Pioneer Woman & the only thing that kept me from fixing them was no fresh seafood in Nocona.

It's SATC Saturday Again

First, I will start you off with a little movie... Sex and the City- All the Best Moments from the Movie. WARNING : If you haven't seen the movie, don't watch this.  Oh, and also please rectify this ASAP.  Ann-  they have the movie at your local TJ Maxx for $5.99.  I meant to buy it for you when I was there and bring it to you at Robin's party, but I got distracted by lamps and forgot (sorry!).  This week has been pretty lame-o on the updates front. All I have found is that there are reports of some drama on the set between Kim Cattrall and SJP.  Of course there have been reports in the past that these two gals didn't get along (personally I think it is just because KC is a little too big for her britches and doesn't seem to always remember that SJP is an executive producer and Carrie is, well the star ).  There are also reports that SJP is possibly a little overwhelmed with having the two new twin girls and little James Wilkie to take care of...
