Hi! How has your week been? Mine has been a bit crazy. On Thursday, I spent all day filming recipe videos with Foster Farms. I have never done anything like that before. There was a full film crew, a makeup artist, a food stylist with his own assistant, and plenty of PR and marketing folks there to watch. I managed to do my best without having a panic attack from the pressure, so that’s a success if you ask me. I’m pretty shy, especially camera shy, so this was a huge deal for me.ย Here’s a behind-the-scenes photo:

The next day (yesterday) was my birthday! I love birthdays. I woke up to a bunch of sweet presents from my sweet family. It was a regular Friday so I had to go to a doctor’s appointment, do grocery shopping, and take kids to playdates and appointments, but it was a really good day. Today the guys are going to make me a gluten-free birthday cake, so I’m excited about that. This is about the only time Matt cooks all year, so it’s a big event. (Before you think badly of him, he would be willing to cook more if I gave him the chance. I’m very 1950’s.) Look at this sweet cake heย made! I was so impressed!

I also made some new dinner recipes for you this week! First up were Cheeseburger Stuffed Potatoes, and today I shared Dragon Breath Slow Cooker Pot Roast. I think you’ll enjoy them both, and I also rounded up five other recipes to go with them. Check out the list right here:

  1. Cheeseburger Stuffed Baked PotatoesYou are going to LOVE these quick and easy cheeseburger stuffed baked potatoes! Enjoy the flavor of cheeseburger and fries in one gluten-free dish!
  2. Spaghetti Squash with Sausage AlfredoThis healthy sausage alfredo recipe uses no cream and is served over spaghetti squash instead of pasta!

    Happy belated birthday!! And a very excellent job on the shoot! Am both happy for you, but a tad envious at the same time! Am quite the opposite of shy. Maybe with age comes being less afraid of such things!Was shy in my teens, as time went on, life experiences… Being a fitness instuctor/trainer for 20+years helped I suspect. Anyway, you look beautiful and cool.as a cucumber!How adorable the homemade cake! You are truly blessed!

      Oh thank you, Teri! I don’t know if I’ll ever have that opportunity again, so it was good to experience it. I couldn’t believe they were treating me like a star while I was there. I’m just a home cook and blogger! It was fun though.
