Awesome Girl Weekend!

I had a most stupendous weekend!!!  I spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning with my three BFF's for a girl weekend.  If you haven't ever had a girl weekend, do not pass go, do not waste time, call them NOW and set one up...you will thank me later.  It is.....Awesome! Cathartic! Rejuvenating! and just plain Wonderful!  We made AMAZING food and opened the wine each day before noon, and laughed our a** off for two days. Oh, in between all that eating, drinking, laughing and OK..just a teensy, weensy, tiny little toke (but I swear, I didn't inhale), we had the most incredible massage out on the patio by our own private masseuse.  OK, I know you are saying why didn't I invite you...... sorry, but next time, you are sooo in! 

Have you had a stupendous girl weekend? If so, tell me about it.  I'm pretty sure you can't top mine!...but maybe you just had to be there. 

I am so rejuvenated that I am posting two blogs tonight!  Hope you had an Awesome week-end!

Cream Cheese and Strawberry Snowmen.These are just too adorable not to share for  Strawberry Snowmen.

1. Rinse strawberries and cut around the top of the strawberry. Remove the top, (enough for a hat). Clean out the whole strawberry with a paring knife, if necessary (some of them are hollow already. Prep all of the strawberries and set aside.
2. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Add cream cheese mix to a piping bag or Ziploc with the corner snipped off. Fill the strawberries with cheesecake mixture.
3. Once strawberries are filled, top with the 'hats.' Decorate according to photo.
