I never thought I'd say this...

I honestly never thought that I would say this... and Mom, you are probably about to be shocked-- but I love brussel sprouts! I never at them growing up. Honestly my first time to ever have one was  just 2 months ago. Now, I eat them on a weekly basis!

I found this recipe (on pintrest of course) and decided to give it a whirl! The flavor combination is so delicious. The first time I made it, I added spicy chicken sausage. Last week, I decided to add some sweet potatoes. Both just added so much more to the flavor profile.

Graham Simmons

Goodness its already 2014...  December was insanely busy!! In the midst of all the chaos at work, Chris and I got to spend some much needed quality time with our families!

We spent Christmas in Houston this year! The highlight of the trip was meeting the newest Simmons. Chris's brother Caleb and his wife Denise welcomed their first child on Dec 5th - Graham Connor Simmons, who is now a month old! (I told you I was super behind on my posts eek)

I'm a total nephew hog!
