    I did it!

    I friggin did it. Did what you ask? Well, you’ll just have to sit tight and read this blog. So first things first, I am 3 loads deep into laundry and made the donair sauce for supper tonight. But I wanted to bake. And I had a great idea. So I go to my trusty recipe box. That I just got that monogram plaque for the other day…it’s pretty snazzy if I do say so myself. I finally get to showcase my pride and joy. My recipe box. Ok, now back to the story. And say, “recipe box, I’m going to try something new today. What should I do?” And…

    Busy day ahead

    So yesterday wasn’t productive like I had wanted it to be. Everything I had planned got foiled somehow. Unpack the stuff for the last shelf. I couldn’t because the dust here is like fine silt and it won’t “dust”. I needed a polish or something that I didn’t have. Laundry. Had to wait until today because I wanted to wash the clothes John and I had on and the weather was supposed to be nicer today. Therefore, cut the drying time in half. Bake cookies. Only 1 egg. Every cookie recipe I own calls for 2 eggs. So that was a no go. But I did manage to get my…

    2 viruses later, I’m back

    Wow, this is the longest I think I’ve gone in a while without a post. 2 WHOLE DAYS! lol But I must admit, I sick and more importantly I had caught a virus on my computer and I couldn’t use the internet browser sometimes, or when I could I’d get pop ups.

I thought I had it fixed within a couple hours but as soon as J came home it started going bonkers again. I found the 2 files that…

    One of those weekends…

    …where it might have been better if I had stayed in bed and didn’t awaken AT ALL. Let’s start from the beginning shall we. I awoke Sat. am feeling weird but thought it was just because I had slept so damn long. Like we slept in until 11-11:30. Which is outstanding in our eyes. First time in a year or more. But we only have our new purchase to blame. A new mattress set, which by the way is HEAVEN in every sense of the word. It got delivered on Friday mid-morning so it was our first night on the new, memory-foam, pillow-top mattress. Firm but soft. Oh so perfect.…

    The hunt is over….

    ….and I’m such a dork! A simple outing last night for a toothbrush holder, a specific one at that, led us to find what I have been searching for for months!!! A set of “odd measure” cups. Do you know how long I had been searching for these? I had to get them. They were the only set and it’s Winners, if I don’t get them now I’ll never see them again. Let’s just say it was expensive but I was willing to buy them at William-Sonoma so it was better than that. But I was soooo frickin’ excited to have a set of measuring cups. I was beaming. So…
