Welcome back to Crust and Crumbs! I haven’t done one of these posts in way, way too long.
1. Did you know I’m a Maker over at Pillsbury? I create new content for their website a few times a month. Here are some of my recent posts:
And I post dinner over there too!
Waffle Iron Grilled Cheese {with bacon and avocado}
Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken Chili
Shredded Beef Slow-Cooker Sandwiches
Turkey Pesto Rolls
2. This made me want to change up my workout. Who is up for dance walking? Anyone?
3. I loved this list of 72 Truths Friends Taught us about our 20s. PIVOT!
4. You follow me on Instagram, right?
Father Daughter Dance *weeping*
I met Brandi! She’s fabulous. Also? Don’t go second behind Hayley. #TeamBrandi
I left my heart here.
I needed a mug with Beyonce on it. {If you don’t know what I’m talking about you NEED to read that post. NOW.}
We redid the ugly bathroom.
Family hike {Jordan photobomb}.
5. My favorite recipes lately:
No-Bake Peanut Butter Twix Pie
Small Batch 45 Minute Dinner Rolls
6. Books I’ve been reading:
The Passage (Book One of the Passage Trilogy) by Justin Cronin {I knew nothing when I started and the book is not what I expected. But I can’t put it down and I’m dreaming about it. So…it’s really good.}
Wedding Night by Sophie Kinsella
Prairie Tale, A Memoir by Melissa Gilbert {#addictedtolauraingallswilder}
When I Found You by Catherine Ryan Hyde
The Seasons Trilogy by Trisha Leigh (Whispers in Autumn, Winter Omens, Betrayals in Spring, and Summer Ruins)
7. This pie blew my mind.
8. 24 is coming back in May. We just watched the first season (back in the day we started mid-season 2). I’m addicted!
9. Next week Jordan has a field trip to a living history museum. It’s a trip back in time to 1880. I’m at the baking station, where we will grind our own flour and churn our own butter to make biscuits. I’ll be there all day and I’m not allowed to use my cell phone. I’m preparing myself for the withdrawals and shakes. How am I going to instagram biscuit making? Or our period outfits?
Also? If you’re driving East on 80 to Auburn on Tuesday and see a bunch of chicks in a car wearing bonnets, wave hello.
Thanks so much for reading! What have you been up to?
Love the post. The field trip sounds great. Hopefully someone will be there taking pics. And I like dance driving…just dance with the upper half of your body while driving down the highway. 🙂
How did you meet Brandi?! Jealous! #TeamBrandi is right!
The living history museum sounds so cool! Have fun grinding your own flour! Congrats on being a Pillsbury Baker! All the posts you create for Pillsbury look soooo delicious. Not that I would expect anything less from you 😉
She’s from Sacramento, so she did a book signing here. She’s as amazing in real life as she is in person. She was drinking wine at 3pm, it was fabulous!
Of course she did!
This is such a great post Dorothy! Love your daughter and hubby picture – so sweet! Also that is so cool you contribute to Pillsbury – I’m going to check out those recipes and pin some! They look so great!! And those basketball pies – adorable!!
Thank you Chelsea!
I love seeing pics of your family! And meeting Brandi…how fun! And that bathroom, you are so crafty/handy…wow! And it turned out amazing!
Thanks Averie!
That living history museum sounds so fun!! Jordan is so adorable.
The new bathroom looks great and that’s so awesome that you’re developing recipes for Pillsbury!
