Easter is on Sunday and I have yet to come up with an outfit to wear! I am thinking the second dress would be perfect. What do you think? What will you be wearing for Easter?

Jalapeno Poppers

Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers
Ingredients:
Fresh Jalapenos, 2-3 Inches In Size
Cream Cheese, softened (I used fat free)
Bacon (I used Turkey Bacon), Sliced Into Thirds

Directions:
1. Cut jalapenos in half, length-wise. I would recommend wearing gloves with chopping and scrapping – if you touch your eyes you\’ll definitely be having a bad day. With a spoon, remove the seeds and white membrane. Smear softened cream cheese into each jalapeno half. Wrap jalapeno with bacon pieces (1/3 slice).  Secure by sticking toothpick through the middle.
2. Bake on a pan covered in foil at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes.  Serve immediately, or they\’re great at room temperature.

Do you host Easter or do you go to someone elses house for Easter?
Do you do themed Easter decor?

I would love to be home for Easter as my Mum always creates a fabulous meal as well as a beautiful tablescape. So I will be hosting Easter at my place, which means this weekend I best go out shopping for my decor. I will be giving my table a color theme which will be soft and feminine.
