I must just be hungry lately, but couldn't resist posting these parmesan roasted potatoes. Another one I will definitely be trying soon.

A couple years back I went to a friend's wedding and she had the most delicious mashed potatoes served out of martini glasses. I love the idea of doing a mashed potato bar for a party. And the parfaitinis for dessert...genius! Check out the details here.

I know it may be a little early for a Halloween post, but we all know how much I love Halloween. Just couldn't resist! Though I think I might use an orange or bright green boa instead of the pink. Thanks Flamingo Toes for this great tutorial! You'll have to wait until closer to October to see my version.

a little | mini pot pies

Speaking of cooking, like I said I have been trying to cook a lot more lately. Last night I made these delicious mini pot pies. Thank you pillsbury for sending this recipe to my inbox. I did have a hard time finding the potatoes and onions, so instead I just used diced hashbowns defrosted slightly in the oven. I was also able to get six pot pies out of it instead of just five.
I found the ramekins at Crate and Barrel.

As soon as I saw these edible tea cups I wanted to throw a tea party for my girlfriends. How perfect would these be for an Alice in Wonderland themed party.
