What I Bookmarked This Week
Recipes and posts from other blogs that I thought looked especially delicious and that I thought you would like, too:
I would like to dip everything into this homemade pub cheese spread, but a big soft pretzel would certainly do.
Hurry up, peach season! I want to make this Italian fresh peach crumb cake.
These easy French dip sliders are perfect party food. Totally making them soon.
Slow cooker chicken marsala looks too easy and delicious not to make immediately.
Circus animal cookie rice krispie treats are utterly amazing.
Have a delicious weekend!
Happy Birthday, Michelle! We share a birthday and I always have to check every time today rolls around to see what delicious dessert you’re having. Haha. Hope you’ll share it soon :) Either way, I hope you had a wonderful birthday!
Aww happy birthday to you!
I LOVE circus animal cookies! Thanks for sharing! And I really cannot wait to try the Momofuku birthday cake! It looks so so so good!
I’m going to make the circus rice krispie treats (without the circus animals) for my great niece’s first birthday party which has a rainbow theme. Her daddy LOVES RK treats. Thanks for sharing!
I want to try making those cookies and the dutch baby – haven’t had one in years but I loved it last time I had one. The weather is kinda iffy here right now – we are supposed to get a bad thunderstorm but we need the rain so that’s okay. Have a great weekend!
Happy birthday Michelle! Isn’t your birthday march 25? Day after mine….
Thank you! Yes, it was Saturday :)
I love your Weekend Dish posts.  Do you have  a recipe for  your beef tips over noodles on your site and if not, would  you mind sharing it?  I also think I need to make those  animal cracker rice krispy treats.  Thanks for the great job you doÂ
Hi Marla, My mom’s been making the same beef tips recipe for ages, but it’s not on the site. I’ll get the recipe from her and try to get it up soon!
Thank you! Â Happy belated birthday!!Â
I made the same peach crumb cake recipe last summer and and it was delish!!
