Carrot Cream Cheese Streusel Muffins

Happy Sunday everyone! 

Can ya'll believe that Easter is exactly one week from today? 

I honestly can't, it's sneaking up on me. I'm used to it being in April close to my birthday, this whole Easter being in March is throwing me off. 

I'm excited though.

Boozy Mini Pecan Pie Cupcakes

You know those moments in school when you take a test and you think to yourself, "I totally aced that test!" Only to get the test back and find out you failed.

Yeah, those times suck.

Lucky for me though that didn't happen this time. This time I got my midterm test back and found out I got a 98!

Sarah Eats Austin goes to Gourdoughs


Mmmm... Donuts... 

For anyone who's ever watched the Simpsons you know what i'm talking about. And that is exactly what I was saying while eating at Gourdoughs!

A local food truck based on South 1st St. This food truck is taking the people of Austin away into donut heaven. It has received much publicity, being seen on the Food Network and Cooking Channel, this food truck has definitely made it's mark in the food scene.

Broccoli Salad with Blue Cheese and Pecans

Oh Monday, how I loath you.

It's so hard getting back into the swing of things after a break, especially one as great as this last spring break.

Bailey's Irish Cream Cheesecake

Oh the last weekend of spring break....

The last couple of days to enjoy blissful freedom before it's back to the books once again and the constant stressful knot in your stomach resumes...

I don't know about ya'll but i'm not ready to go back yet. How about we get just one more week off. Yes?

Braised Chicken and an HEB Goodie Basket Review!

I feel like a little kid. 

This is the firs time anyone's ever sent me anything to review and do you know how exciting that is?! 

To receive this package was like Christmas morning! Especially with the pretty purple bow, I loved it!

Sarah's Picks: A few of my favorite restaurants

So with the Austin City Guide coming out recently, I was inspired by all the great and interesting posts. Mine was on the best breakfast tacos in Austin, but after having eaten out a lot lately at some truly amazing restaurants, I really wanted to talk about some of my favorite with you all. I mean, these places just took my breath away with their food.

And for all you out of towner's here for SXSW I strongly urge you to check these places out before you leave!

Avocado Pesto Pasta

I'm a wimp.

I admit it. I went down to SXSW for a couple of hours but  you know what? It's cold and rainy! No fun you guys.

Now maybe if I actually had something planned out for today to do I would've stayed, but today I just kinda winged it.

No luck.

Guinness Braised Doves

I love culinary school.

I know, it's only my semester doing it, and i'm only taking 2 of the basic classes I need, but honestly so far it's been great.
