That's what she said.
Get your minds out of the gutter—I of course, innocently meant that I only have time for a quick update today.
I have mixed feelings about this week. It's both kicking my ass and making me really excited all at the same time. For example, last night, I worked until 12:30am. That's for the birds. But deadlines linger this week and thus is my life right now until my "transition" is over.
BUT, the night was made better when my husband told me around 11:30pm that he booked...

The Easiest No-Bake Recipe. Ever
So, I'm preeettttty bad at baking. Try as I might, anything that involves eggs, flour and sugar is most likely not going to turn out like it does in the pictures, on the website or in my head.
Sigh.
When my friend Grace asked me to bring a dessert to her twin boys' birthday party this weekend, I thought, oh great. I immediately turned to my Pinterest board, "Lay Off Me, I'm Starving," where I frequently pin a bunch of recipes that look amazing but I assume are out of my ability zone.
Alas, I...

First World Problems
Oh hey, ya'll. Happy Hump Day :)
Changing things up tonight. The other day, I read a really great post about perspective by Erin, and it got me thinking.
I try to keep it pretty light here, but the truth is, I've got some deep thoughts swirling around in this head. More than that, there is some heavy stuff going on outside of my head, too. As in real life. Unfortunately, it's these types of situations that make me realize how lucky I am, how many blessing and opportunities I'm given every day....

Shock, Drop and Roll
I'm refraining from posting my regular weekend update today, mostly because it was pretty tame. Friday was one of the more miserable days of my life as I couldn't stop sneezing/coughing/blowing my nose. Saturday's highlights included a trip to the minute clinic, followed by Ashley's going away party. I'm sure you can imagine how that went for me based on last week's blog post. Sunday was the Chicago Marathon but I remained captive to my bed, getting up long enough to cook some chili and pumpkin...
