#WIAW- The Baking Bug

Typically the only places I like bugs are behind glass or a colored photo. I’m a screamer when it comes to even the smallest kind of creepy crawly, so even when I’ve gone camping, it usually turns into “glam ping.” (glamorous camping)

You’d think after practically being raised in the woods I’d learn to accept the bug’s life, but that is just not possible in this lifetime.

I’ll tell you about a bug that I miss catching…and that’s the one that’s associated with baking. Some people go to therapy…I bake. (when I can)

If this were 5 years ago, I would’ve transferred to the Culinary Institute faster than you can say pastry chef. I’m not a lunch or dinner kind of person, but breakfast or baking, (the two greatest B pairings in life) now THOSE are some things that make my day.

So clearly, this week I was either baking or breakfast-ing up a storm. It makes me contemplate a serious blog name change (if I wasn’t self hosted). The breakfast baker? Most likely taken. Not clever enough anyway.

It’s time to dig in…

My sister helping with the prep…Is she my mini me? Everyone says so. I suppose the baking is the icing on the cake!

These little thangs from my post yesterday were so-so for me, but evidently the fam bam loved them as the entire batch was gone last I checked.

I decided I’m not going to post the recipe for these eggy zucchini breads until I have it perfected. Here’s a quick looksie though…

A new breakfast win…using peanut flour in recipes. I have been hearing you people RAVE about it so I ordered some. It was kind of pricey for a small bag, but I don’t even care about the cost, as I’m in love once again. (These food affairs are getting a bit out of hand, aren’t they?)

You know it wouldn’t be a complete WIAW without some greens. So feast your palates and eyes…

I’m usually a veggie saute-er, but I decided to change it up and pop some brocc in the microwave. What a freaking difference! All thanks to a blogilates instagram pic.

I am a huge fan of backgrounds blending with food. This picture was brought to you by my T-FAL pan. Thank you for being so…YOU!

This was a welcomed surprise. Some hummus and veggies from a severely overpriced health food store. I walked in there in search of VEGA protein powder (expecting a sale…YEAH RIGHT) and walked out with these angels below. The hummus was made in house. So fresh, so clean.

Last but not least…these count as green, don’t they? 😉 Fun fact: I actually was supposed to work for this company, but due to some salary disputes, declined the offer. Kind of kicking myself now…these are not too shabby!

What are you eats looking like this week? Are you falling for fall? Do you bake? Are you a breakfast, lunch, linner, brinner, dinner, or dessert person?

Peace, love, and fake it til you bake it!
