I have not fallen off the earth.... though our lives have turned upside down as of late Matt got his hours cut and rearranged at work, so our work week has been Thursday through Monday. Yep, that means I've been working EVERY Sunday. We found out that we will not be doing the host home …
Because A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
In a little over 24 hours Matt and I took two pallets and created art... The End. What do you think? Yes, I know: I need something more than blackout roller shades for window treatments. And, Yes: I took these picture a little past midnight.
What do you call lunch at 3:30?
Today has been the strangest day! First off, matt and I are both home. Second, we woke up to the sound of a transformer being blown across the street. Thus, we had no power and went to McDonald's for breakfast 🙂 We left to do our errands at almost noon, and weren't hungry at all, …
Quick-e’s
Today's something productive was actually two things: the dishes and the laundry 🙂 I made up for it by painting the base coat on a recipe box and by baking some pumpkin spritz cookies... to use my newly acquired cookie press a la craigslist I am also in the midst of tackling one of those …
Vacation!

You HAVE to try this…
...if you are anywhere near a trader joe's, you must get a quart of this ice cream Lemon & Triple Gingersnap... Now, I had to do some mighty hard convincing of my husband that we wouldn't regret it, even though, I thought in the back of my head that it might be weird. All …
Simple Grilled Ham & Cheese…
I came home from work the other night, and wanted something so quick and delicious so I whipped up this.... Two slices of Oatnut bread, two slices of muenster cheese, three slices of honey ham, and one ripe tomato.... Yum! Instead of margarine or butter, I've been suing I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray, …
Easy Chicken Cordon Bleu
This is seriously one of my new favorite meals... I have had to make a point to self-edit, and refrain from buying the ingredients every time we grocery shop! Matt told me this week that it reminds him of one of those dinners in a box that he used to buy all the time and …
