The house is all clean and fresh once again. I tend to do things in rotations rather than all at once (i.e. clean the sink out one day, dust a couple days later, vacuum the next morning, etc…) but sometimes I get bursts of energy to scrub, scrub, scrub. (Man..”scrub” in an incredibly difficult word […]
The One that Makes You Go “Eeeww”
Remember that rumbling in my tummy? I frew up last night. At 2:30 am. Not fun. At all. Felt much better this morning. How cool is it that your parents are buying their long-desired Amish-made bedroom set? Why is this so cool? Because you and your husband will soon have your mirrored dresser’s match along […]
The One with the Great New Outfit
Sunday in a nutshell: Could have let some unfortunate travel events put a large damper on the day. Didn’t. Leisurely toured every aisle in Sam’s Club alongside my husband. Had fun. Spent money wisely. Have a full fridge. Love large canisters of animal crackers. Appreciate deep life-altering conversations. Loved laughing at that one movie. Wish […]
The One with the Crazy Levels
At the beginning of the week when Kevin found out he didn’t have to go into work on Friday, we planned an afternoon date to Olive Garden! It’s been forever since we ate there–one of our favorite venues, so we’ve both really been looking forward to it. After a wonderfully relaxing morning (if you can […]
The One with the Garter Instructions
This is quite entertaining if you can actually tell what is being said. :)
The One with the Last Minute Tigers
A long while ago, Kevin’s chem lab bought a batch of tickets to go to the Cleveland Indians v. Detroit Tigers Game on August 26th. Back then, we had zero dollars to spare and I decided not to tag along. Kevin’s prof. very kindly paid for his ticket, and I was glad he could still […]
The One with the Fishies
I just had an amazing dinner! Kevin has a special meal prepared for grad students, so I decided to try something new. I have never cooked fish before, but with tilapia in the freezer, I had the perfect ingredient. :) I baked a potato, cooked broccoli, and sauteed the light fish with lemon pepper seasoning […]
The One with the Scrapbook
Once again the weather spent a few days reminding us how we strongly dislike humid heat and then decided to come back to my favorite environment–sunny with a high of 75. Last Thursday afternoon I finally sat down and opened up my collection of scrapbooking supplies to attempt a few pages in the new wedding […]
The One with Children’s Literature
This morning, whenever I’m done eating my breakfast (a new favorite by the way…oatmeal with peanut butter melted inside!), I plan on driving down to Aldi. I haven’t been to this particular store since the car broke down forever ago, so I’m a little apprehensive. I know everything will be fine, though, because 1) I […]
The One with the Tuna Melt
Sorry I haven’t been the faithful blogger I have led you all to believe that I am. It’s been what I call an exciting, freaky, crazy, unpredictable, and yet perfectly ordained God thing. Once again, I would love to share some details but until all loose ends are tied up, I’ll be keeping you in […]
