Butter Bean's Party



We had such a good time this last weekend throwing Butter Bean's first birthday party. I had to make everything from scratch to insure it was food sensitivity friendly but all the work paid off. The menu was beef and chicken fajitas, corn and bean warm salad, rice and of course homemade guacamole. We ran a little late getting the food ready but I think that was due to the huge rain storm soaking husband while he tried to grill 10 pounds of fajitas meat. Poor thing was soaked but he stuck it out and got the job done.

I purchased a cake from Costco to feed everyone and then I made Butter Bean and I a cake that was dairy/egg free. It was more like a brownie but I ended up making icing to slather on it and it turned out pretty yummy. I was able to make it the entire weekend without slipping up on my diet and conquered a major demon by passing on the queso!


In fact Sunday night I ran on the treadmill for the first time in a very long time. I have kept it up too, running the last couple nights as well. Who is this girl?
