Kevin had one request for dinner this week–pot roast. I think after 2 weeks of being without me or my homecooked meals, he was really needing some comfort food. Now, I have to admit this is one of the quickest and easiest meals to put together and it comes out so delicious! There are probably […]

Peanut Butter Cake
To celebrate Kevin’s return from his Wisconsin RNA Society Conference as well as the youth group’s getting back together after what seemed like forever apart, I tried a new cake recipe from my trusty Betty Crocker Cookbook. This recipe is originally meant to be a Yellow Cake but by substituting 1/2 cup peanut butter in […]

The One with Home Sweet Home
Wow, what a week. It is always a bittersweet experience to have a vacation end–sad to leave the relaxation and fun but so ready to be home again. An early morning was necessary thanks to my 8:25am flight out of Orlando. Grams thought I was crazy for picking such a schedule! And maybe she was right! […]
The One with the Sappiness
After a whirl wind of a week in Canada helping Britt prepare for her big day, I am now sitting in the home of my Grams who lives near Orlando, FL! *whew* Maybe I’ll get to relax this week. :) I stayed quite busy at Britt’s helping as much as I could with wedding prepartions […]
The One with the Return
He’s here. I am whole again. Tomorrow is rehearsal day and then the wedding!
The One with the Ribbon
Lately, my days in Canada have been filled with yards (and yards and yards…leagues really…) of ribbon, assistance offered during the opening of countless gifts, meeting many new people, eating delicious foods, hanging out with some of the coolest girls I know, and watching every bridal movie known to man (or woman, rather.) It’s been […]
The One with the MIXER!
Friday was amazing. I’m not sure how much I can remember of it’s wonderfulness other than Kevin deciding to take me out to Kohl’s to buy my anniversary gift. Yes, you guessed it. A KitchenAid Stand Mixer–Artisan Series in Empire Red. Here, let me show you a picture. Just click on the last color swatch […]
The One with the Smattering
I’m busy. Busy packing for two weeks away from home…in two distinct climates…for two unique purposes. Saturday I will be picked up by my second family (correction: third family if you count the Eccles as second, but I kind of consider them my real family in addition to my blood family. But I digress.)–the Austins–are picking […]
