New Seasonal Flavors of Dunkin' Donuts at Grocery + a Giveaway!



Coffee! The smell alone of it brewing early in the morning is enough to entice me out of my cozy bed. Jim is a simple man that knows what he likes, and he likes his coffee plain and black. He pours a cup and then is out the door. I take my time with my morning joe. I'm a "dessert first" kind of gal and like to sweeten my coffee with cream and sugar, maybe a sprinkle of cinnamon or a flavored syrup.

When I was asked to review two new flavors of Dunkin' Donuts at Grocery coffee, I jumped at the chance...especially after I found out what their Spring Seasonal Flavors are!

Chicken Diablo

I just love my food blog buddies because just when I think I'm all out of ideas for dinner, I am inspired all over again with their talents. I first spotted this delicious Chicken Diablo on Pinterest from Leslie Green who is The Hungry Housewife. She has an entire board just on Chicken! She pinned this recipe from Maggie of A Bitchin' Kitchen who adapted the recipe from Bev Cooks who found the recipe on Recipe Finder.

All that to prove to you, this recipe is GOOD! It's been passed all around the internet and wound up on pinterest because it's easy to make and is full of flavor.

Independence Day Wreath

Happy 4th of July! I whipped up this front door wreath last week and wanted to share with you how easy and inexpensive it was to make.

The wreath form was purchased at Hobby Lobby for $5. I have a better tip for you though!! Because I had enough decor items left over for a second wreath, I turned a pool noodle into a wreath form. I saw the idea on Pinterest, man I love that web site. The pool noodle from Walmart was only $1.50. I trimmed about five inches off one side with scissors and then taped the two ends together. I may do this for all my wreaths since it worked so well.

I wrapped the wreath with this spool of inexpensive sparkly ribbon from the Christmas section. Yes, Hobby Lobby already has a Christmas section!

I secured both ends with hot glue. It doesn't have to be perfect.
Here are my supplies: a spool of patriotic ribbon, blue ribbon, red flowers and white flowers, patriotic pinwheels and patriotic sparklers.
I started by wrapping the wreath with my patriotic ribbon that I found on sale for $2.00.
