Wedding Eve Mishap

I am entirely unsatisfied by the manicure I received today. It felt great, but the pink tint the manicurist used was very dark and she didn’t smooth out the white tips very well. Also, it seems that she didn’t apply a very good layer of top coat because as I washed my hair just now, the . . . → Read More: Wedding Eve Mishap

T minus 11 hours

I am due to be married in just about eleven hours. I was out of the house from about 9:00 this morning until around 4:30 this afternoon having a girl’s day with my bridesmaids and flower girls. We got manicures and pedicures, had lunch, and shopped for shoes. My groom stayed home with Jeremy doing boy . . . → Read More: T minus 11 hours

Orange Chicken

Last night I pulled together and made a truly amazing main course. I hadn’t realized how quickly it would be ready, so I completely forgot to make the side dish of veggie fried rice. Oops!

Well, before I could even get two bites into my own mouth, Jason was nearly finished with his plate. I asked if . . . → Read More: Orange Chicken

Friendship is a terrible thing to waste.

My soon-to-be sister-in-law sent this to me via email. I normally just archive these chain letters, but I really wanted to share it because it reminded me of someone I once knew.

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school. His name was . . . → Read More: Friendship is a terrible thing to waste.

Quick lunch with my honey…

This morning I was up and out the door at an unreasonably early hour, awake at 4 am and in the car at 5 am to be exact. In order for Jason to be to work on time, he needs to leave our house at 5:00. Since we are visiting family in Lake Elsinore tomorrow evening . . . → Read More: Quick lunch with my honey…

Monday:

Spaghetti with meat sauce and garlic bread.

Tuesday:

Jason has duty (meaning he works all day and stays there overnight to cover for emergencies, returning home sometime the next day), so I’ll be all alone. I’ll either have a sandwich or maybe even catch up with my sister or something.

Wednesday:

We’re driving out to Lake Elsinore to meet up . . . → Read More: Menu Plan, week of June 15, 2009

Handpainted Child’s Stool

Several of the children in my family received a wooden stool when they were between two and three years old. All of them were handpainted by a wonderful old woman in our hometown. Each was different but they all looked uniform. They all came from the same blank so they were all the same size and . . . → Read More: Handpainted Child’s Stool

Jen’s Lemon Pie

As my very first post on my brand new blog, I’d like to share my absolute favorite pie in the entire world. I love Baker’s Square’s Lemon Supreme Pie, I go wild for it. Unfortunately, the closest Baker’s Square is a few cities away from where I live now and I can’t just take a walk . . . → Read More: Jen’s Lemon Pie
