Snacks

Tonight I made chocolate covered pretzels with Wilbur's milk chocolate.

By far one of the best ideas I've had in a long time...

and to think my boyfriend is helping to create such a delicious treat as we speak.

What a guy.

P.S. Turning 24 has been amazing.

Monday Nights

Turkey Quesadillas with Cranberry Sauce and Swiss

(Secret Ingredient: Diced Green Chiles)

mmmmmmmmmmm.

My incredible statue of drying tupperware.

Second batch of cupcakes in 2 weeks.

That's 36 cupcakes in 14 days...

Nick has been eating cupcakes nonstop ever since Gaby's batch!

Also please note: He stuck his finger in to test if they were done.

In other news I turn 24 in four days.

I am so incredibly nervous.

When I can't leave the house for days,

I begin to enjoy it so much that now I don't want to have to go.

Inspiration for my birthday party:

I mean I don't want to dream too big, but I think I'm off to at least what we call "high hopes".

We'll see how this goes!

I miss my Mom.

This piece is titled "Sleep Heap". It is dedicated to my first snow day in 2010.

It's that time of year...

I want a picnic table so badly that I almost bought one on Craigslist today.

Nick gently reminded me that it is winter and I don't have a truck.

I can just picture it though, I know exactly what tree it should go under.

And then when we have Sunday brunch, we'll throw a cute tablecloth over top and set up a pitcher of mint tea.

So should I paint it red, yellow, or blue?
