Sorry I didn't post on Friday! I can see the statistics on how many people check this page and on which days... and there were quite a few hits on both Friday and Saturday! I was pooped Friday and couldn't get myself to write anything then... but now I'm fresh and ready for another week! (Or so I think... ask me again in seven hours when my alarm goes off...)
So let's go back a bit... because I finally uploaded some pictures and of course pictures speak better than words...
This is from Shannon's birthday. Charlie, Kathleen (a good friend from my international leadership program) and I
Kathleen and I
I mentioned in my last post how stinking cold it was a week or two ago... well the aftermath of that was salt... EVERYWHERE. No this is not snow, or hail, or ice... it is salt. And sadly it didn't work because we all slipped anyways!
Well of course we're in the midwest and if it snows and it freezing cold one week, well its only right that the next week it should be 65 and sunny! I absolutely loved it!! We had a whole week of it! Then this weekend was nasty and rainy but the week should be sunny and in the 50s!
This friday we went to target... again. its becoming our weekly friday night outing hahaha. I made a very special investment. One that has needed to happen for awhile now... my spatula just wasn't doing the job.
A MIXER!! WOOHOO!!! I feel like I betrayed my kitchenaide at home but how in the world would I haul that out here?? So I made this wonderful investment :) And then of course I coudn't just leave it in the box!! So Shannon and I decided to make banana bread! But then we realized we had no loaf pan! But thankfully there were some cupcake tins in the floor kitchen and so we made banana bread muffins!! They were delicious!! It was a "healthy recipe," no oil or sugar... applesauce and honey instead! I don't know if any of you have heard of Pinterest but its my new favorite obsession. go to pinterest.com and check it out. look me up and look at my boards :) its amazing! anyways, i've been finding all these new recipes to try and this was one of them! you can find the recipe on my "Need to make recipes" board.
Well, a girls night in wouldn't be complete without take out. yum!!
Although this weekend was great, with all the baking on Friday night, catching up on tv shows last night and a big church super bowl/chili cookoff tonight (SO MUCH FUN) the week kinda sucked. I really would explain it to you, and I promise that I will. asap. but it's 12:45 now and i really don't wanna start out my week getting no sleep haha.
i promise to post tomorrow! i'll post the happys and the crappys. because the week was definitley crappy but last weekend was a huge happy!! :D now i'm just getting silly. But this is the quote I am gonna leave you with... thank you to pinterest for finding this... my goal/focus for the week!
