Becky’s Bites of Life:
I went on a romantic date to The Roof in Salt Lake City. We love that restaurant but it’s a little pricey but thanks to a Christmas gift card we were able to go again. The view is stunning. It has an amazing view of the Salt Lake Temple and we sat by a window and saw the sun set. The food was amazing as well! It was the best I’ve ever had there.
I had a fun girls night out with my sister-in-law Janell. We went to the Freebies 2 Deals book launch party to celebrate Melea’s new book, Create Your Own Money-Saving Adventure. It was such a fun night! They had giveaways, which sadly I didn’t win and delicious donuts from Beyond Glaze. I am so obsessed with those donuts now! They are so pretty and so good! Β I also met some bloggers! (I mostly chatted with Tara from Keep Moving Forward with Me and Jen from My Daylights)
My boys love when I take them to visit family. We visited with my mother-in-law last week. The kids had fun playing while we discussed my sister-in-law’s upcoming wedding. She is going to be having a cookie bar at her reception so I will be making a crazy amount of chocolate chip cookies!
My other sister-in-law just graduated from Paul Mitchel. I asked her what type of treat I could make her and she requested cake balls. I don’t make cake balls often anymore because they are time consuming but because I am nice and she deserved it I made some! These were made with chocolate cake and my favorite vanilla bean frosting. They turned out so pretty!
We had a fun time this past weekend attending the BYU football Spring Scrimmage. We can’t wait for football season to begin again!
I hope you all have a wonderful April! What are you looking forward to most this month?
Stay tuned for more fun and delicious recipes!
Wow Becky sounds like you had a fantastic month! And BYU football games are seriously the best.
Thanks Britni! BYU rocks!
What a great way to be able to look back and reflect on your month. Those m&m cookies have my mouth watering for chocolate, even though it’s only not even 9 am!
Thanks! I like it. π

I’m most looking forward to my mom’s 80th birthday party this month. It will be the first time my brother and sisters and all the spouses and cousins will have been together at the same time since my wedding 12 years ago. It’s going to be a blast!
I LOVE that frosting! π What a fun get together! That sounds so wonderful. Hope you have a wonderful time!
