1. Started my Saturday morning with delicious Mexican Cinnamon tea and honey!! I love this stuff just as much as my Starbucks Skinny Vanilla latte and it is less expensive! I found the tea at Rancho San Miguel Mexican market. So far this is the only straight cinnamon tea I have found. If you have found a good one elsewhere please let me know.
Then it was on to trying a new recipe I discovered while perusing pintrest.com. Had to make these Sugar Donut Muffins. We all liked them and I will be making them again! Perfect to make for breakfast or brunch! You can find the recipe here: http://bakingbites.com/2008/09/sugar-donut-muffins/
If you have not discovered pintrest yet, you have to check it out! I am totally hooked. It is a site for everything creative, photography, wedding/event planning, recipes, and everything else!!!
I am still figuring out how to navigate through it, but I have already found great wedding ideas and several recipes I have to try. I even found an origami star pattern for my son to make.

Next it was on to a nice cool morning bike ride. I have been taking advantage of breezy mornings and evenings to get lots of bike riding time! I love riding my beach cruiser!!!!
Then after a quick shower I headed off to take advantage of a wonderful groupon that I purchased a few months ago. I got a total body sugar scrub and 1 hour massage for $40.00!! Score!!
It was wonderful and much needed!!!! Another site you have to check out if you haven't already, groupon.com. You sign up to get daily emails of great discounts in your area.
After the massage I noticed Kat's Cakes was accross the street and was able to order our wedding cake.
I love Saturdays!!! I hope you had a great one too and have a wonderful weekend!!!!
Talk to you soon!!

  2. Sounds like you had a fantastic Saturday. I've heard about Groupons from another blogger who makes great use of the discounts in her area. I tried out a baked doughnut recipe I found on a blog, but let's just say, it didn't turn out at all! In fact, it spread so much that all I could save was the tops -- they turned out like actual muffins, than doughnuts, so was not happy. They sounded like they would have been so good. I will have to check out the link you posted unless I can't get in because I don't do Pinterest. I have zero interest in getting involved in anything else online. Blogging is enough for me. There is no bike riding or walking going on around here with temps at 120 every day. Enjoying pajama days, crocheting and visiting blog friends. Hope all is well with you. Have a great rest of the week. Tammy
