Happy {almost} Friday… It's time for Friday Flair!! This week I'm coming to you from Park City Utah while I'm attending one of my favorite blogging conferences EVO. This year is going to be amazing and I can't wait to share all of the action.  I will be documenting my experience via instagram, so if you are interested you'll need to follow me here.

Now for this week's inspiration… I'm starting to sense a new trend, WAFFLES.

Kristen from Dine & Dish captured my heart today with her new waffle offering, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Waffles. Her recipe really captured my imagination and I can't wait to try my hand at some creative waffles. What do you guys think?  Are you starting to see waffles pop up all over the place?  They are perfect… they can be breakfast and dessert all wrapped up in one.  Love it!!

Now it's time to PARTY!!

    

Happy {almost} Friday!! I'm posting Friday Flair a little early today because… well, because I like to shake things up a little bit some times!!  Everyone needs a little spontaneity in their lives, right?    

Yesterday as I was getting ready for our 4th of July pool party, I headed to the store and they had the most beautiful dark cherries on sale and I fell head over heels.  I bought a couple of pounds to take to the party, because who doesn't love a bowl full of cherries?  I also procured a couple of pounds to play around with as well.  As a result… I have cherries on the brain!!!  I LOVE this time of year!! Last year I came up with my Black Cherry White Chocolate Cupcake in a Jar that was my all time favorite so far.  We'll see what I come up with this year.

Our inspiration photo for this week comes via Mowielicious and it's a stunning No-Bake Oreo Chocolate Cherry Tart…

Now it's your turn to SHINE!! {wow, too much Victorious in my life right now!}
