This weekend was a (partial) work weekend. And it was INSANELY hot. Fall is nowhere in sight and while I usually love 90 degree temps, my hormones are not on the same page. At all. Our AC isn’t doing much of anything and so Kyle and I spent a large part of the weekend bitching about how uncomfortable and sweaty we were. So productive. Anyway. I did take pics of parts of the weekend, so I’ll share. Friday morning I had oatmeal with apples and almond butter. Even though it was hot, it was the… Read more >

I know I said I was heading out of town this weekend (I am), but I had to pop in to tell you two very awesome things. I have a new niece! Scarlett Alice was born in the wee early hours Friday morning. Isn’t she precious. :) I love her to pieces already. The second is considerably less thrilling to everyone else, but I was pleased nonetheless. This is my happy face after getting a call saying the unit was overstaffed for the night and I could have a holiday. Wee!! I was… Read more >

In my last post I mentioned that we’d be starting weekly meal planning. We’ve never really done this before, but our budget is tight and grocery shopping is pretty much the only area that we spend. Plus it makes sense now that Kyle’s working and his schedule is consistent (as opposed to when he was in school and constantly had random meetings or events or clubs or whatever). Now we know when we will be eating and we can plan things out. BYO lunches. Home-made dinners. Repeat. That’s the plan. Here’s how the first week… Read more >

I forgot to mention the new addition to our garden! We have a lime tree now. Wee!! It’s the one on the far left above. So the sprinkler situation above is our out-of-town solution to watering our babies. The hose is attached to a sprinkler and timer and we set it to go off for 2 minutes at 6 am and 6 pm. It has tons of settings and is pretty convenient. Kyle’s parents let us borrow it while we are in Cabo for the week. If the plants are alive when we come… Read more >

Last week I got a package in the mail… From YUMVELOPE! Yummy stuff in an envelope. Get it? 😛 I’ve seen these monthly subscription services popping up all over the place and I think the concept is pretty cool. Depending on where you live it could be a huge deal to have access to health food products that ordinarily you’d never find in your local grocery store. These Snackle Mouth granola nut clusters were my favorite item in the bunch. Side note: how much do you love the box design? So creepy! Ha!… Read more >
