Today I sat at my holiday-infested desk and stuffed roughly 450 Christmas cards into envelopes. This could have been a nightmare, but guess what? This year we ordered the peel and seal style envelopes! Translation: No licking. No transporting rosemary flavored cracker crumbs to the envelope flap. No raw/sour tongue for the next month. Merry […]
80% of the Christmas gifts are wrapped and under the tree. 12% is sitting on my kitchen table. The last 8% has yet to arrive. 18% of the lights are burned out on our little Christmas tree. 65% of me doesn’t care. 30% of the snow has melted. 25% of it has been replaced by […]
This morning Aaron and I woke up with the same craving: a fire, a movie and turkey tacos. Who says we can’t have turkey tacos for breakfast? Enjoy your weekend!
If there is one thing that makes me giddy it’s when dinner makes itself. And if there is one thing that makes me piddy (piddy is the opposite of giddy) it’s thinking I have an onion or a shallot to use in the dinner and discovering I don’t. I could drive to the store of […]
Going out to dinner tonight with some great friends! Going to enjoy good pizza, wine, laughs, merriment, CHRISTMAS CHEER. Sorry, that was too much. I’ll leave you with a picture of who will be missing out. Seriously, if I look at this picture too long I’ll cancel dinner plans. Night!

We have less than three weeks until Christmas. Did you know that? Are you done shopping? Is everything wrapped? Is your tree up? Are all your travel plans set in stone? Do you have to ship anything this year? Have you planned the Christmas menu? Why was Tumblr down so long? Am I stressing […]
I realize it’s December and we’re supposed to be eating casseroles and holiday cookies and drinking eggnog. I know. And I try. But this summer Aaron surprised me with dinner one evening and I’ve not been able to get the meal out of my mind. I’ve asked him a bazillion times since then to […]
Boy, do I have a ton to get done today. Have no fear, oatmeal with cinnamon, blueberries, bananas, honey and flax seed is here! Oh and coffee. Coffee was definitely here, too.
A couple of weeks ago Aaron came home from a business trip, buzzed with excitement.
