little slice of heaven

chuval opened up a baking workshop in our kitchen this weekend,

and we were forced to try out all her homemade creations.

tiramisu pie, chocolate nut bars,

mini fruit jello molds,

and an apple pie; all made completely from scratch. 

{the apple pie was especially comforting with vanilla ice cream 

after we teared & sniffled our way through 'my sisters keeper'}

can't wait to try my hand at a few tasty treats 

in the next couple of days!

ross & i are off to california this week

to break bread & give thanks with my family...

and out run my sister in the turkey trot. 

slow & steady; just like last year.
