Just Emily

I have a sister.

She is the oldest.

She graduated from USU.  She's married.

She owns a house and she has 2 kids.

Then there is a brother.

He is the only boy.

He graduated from the US Naval Academy.

He has a really good job.

He's married.

He owns a house and has a new baby.

Then there is me,

Emily.

She has a job at a hospital.

Then there is a sister

She is the baby.

She is married.
They are looking for a home to buy in Arizona.

Her husband is going to school to become and Architect.

If you were to ask anyone in my family, extended family or anyone who knows my family, that is how they would describe us kids... Sounds pretty great, huh?

I am Just Emily.

W.W - Grandma edition

I'm Leavin...

On a Jet Plane...

Yes, It's true.

My birthday is coming up, so I treated myself,

(to quite a few things, but who's counting)

to a trip to the good ol'

Midwest aka Utah.

It's going to be fabulous.

My sista and her kids will be there

and any time with my Aunt, Uncle and Grammy is a good time

and maybe my cousin (hint Lindzee)

I've been watching flights for awhile and finally

booked one for a pretty good price.

The prob?

My Gram is about 2 hours north of SLC

so someone would have to drive 8 hours r/t to get me to and fro...

Terrible, right?

Solution!

One of the many perks of my job is

enrollment in Employeediscountclub.com

There aren't too many things I would actually use on there

but I remembered they had one for Avis!

I logged on, checked it out and gave them a call.

I got a fabulously low rate and on top of that

3rd day free

on to of that

$25 off!!

I am under 25 so most places charge and extra $15 to $25 per day

on top of all the other bogus fees.

But not with a "corporate rental."

So I scored BIG time (less than a hundo) and everyone gets to

spend more time together!!

Thanks Anaheim Regional!

Utah, here I come!

Peanut Butter Brownies

I love this blog... I'm convinced that each time I visit it, I gain at least 5 pounds.  When I saw these brownies I knew I wanted to make them, so I did and I took them to work.  I found that my job is really good for my baking desires because I can bake the most fattening delicious treats, leave a few for my mom and I then pass the rest off.  Here's the scoop!

Brownie:
One box brownie mix.  I used the Betty Crocker Original Supreme type.  Mix and bake as directed.

Peanut Butter Filling:
Two cups powered sugar.
One stick softened butter
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2 teaspoons milk (I used 3)
Mix in a medium bowl with electric mixer until smooth.  Once brownies are cool spread filling over the top.  I used my hands, it was way easier than using the spatula.  (Wash them first though, yo.)

Chocolate topping:
One cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 stick butter
Combine in a microwave safe bowl and microwave at 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted.  Smooth over the top.

Put in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to firm, remove about 20 min prior  to serving.

Enjoy!

Sneak Peak

I'm revamping my room.  It's taking me a LONG time.  I'm lazy.  This is some pretty sweet fabric that I'm including in some secret way.
