Lunch Club Recipes

The past two weeks of lunch club at our office have been delicious. Rachel made this delicious grilled cheese recipe from the blog Grilled Cheese Social. Click on the link below the image to get the recipe for yourself.  I personally love anything with buffalo chicken in it and this was no exception. She brought in her Foreman grill and it was easy to make quickly.

Buffalo Chicken Grilled Sandwich

This week was my week to make lunch. I decided to try out a soup recipe in my crock pot.  It's been warming up a little bit here in Maryland, but since our office is practically an igloo I figured we would need the warm up at lunch. I chose a recipe from The Crockin' Girls. I also think I may have found one of my new favorite go to recipe sites.  There are so many delicious ideas on their page.

Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend!  

Bucket of Bubbles

I made these cute little Easter bucket gifts the other night. I cut out some vinyl bunnies on my silhouette machine.  Then instead of candy I added some colored bubbles and bubble wands. The bubbles came in one large set and I got them on clearance at Target last year for $2. The buckets were from Target too, so I spent a total of $4 on these two little gifts.  I also just wrote their names on the vinyl that way I wouldn't need a gift tag too.

Thankfully it seems all that snow we had yesterday is melting rather quickly. Hopefully our little egg hunt will be without snow on the ground this weekend.

Kitchen Progress

Progress has been made on the kitchen! With weeks of not so nice weather and even several inches of snow falling today we have had some trouble finding time to cut the counters.  On Saturday, Rob was able to get the counters cut because it was a bit warmer and our sink had finally been delivered.

I chose this black granite composite sink for the kitchen. I could not find one in stock at Lowe's or Home Depot, but I found a similar one on Amazon.  Rob was able to get installed with only a few hiccups. It may have taken a while longer than he had anticipated, but he also had to change out some plumbing because our previous sink was significantly smaller.

I picked up the Moen Annabelle faucet in a brushed nickel finish at Lowe's. I had gotten a $10 off coupon recently, so I was able to apply it to this purchase. After choosing the faucet I headed over to the display center to see if they had any granite composite sinks to check out.  I found that the one on display had the exact faucet I chose installed at the display kitchen.  I figured it had to be a good choice then.

Next up determining what to do with our back splash. We are still a little up in the air with that decision.  The cost breakdown for these additions were approximately $750.00. The faucet was $200, the sink was $195 and the counters at Ikea were $350.  We are very happy with all of these choices so far.  Wynn has been enjoying playing in the sink and "washing" dishes.
