Is it really March already? Yikes. We woke up this morning to 5-ish inches of snow, according to the weather guy. Our first snow and it happens in March. Tennessee is so weird.Today I Am:
Reading: All about Raised Bed Gardening. I don't have the space for a huge big garden, but I definitely have room for 2 4' x 8' raised beds. Loving it. I have been spending lots of happy hours browsing through Johnny's Seed Catalog. I am envisioning cucumber and pumpkin plants.
Listening to: Adele - Make You Feel My Love. I heard this version of the song while catching up on episodes of Lipstick Jungle on NBC.com. Love, love, love it.
Obsessed With: Brothers and Sisters. I don't watch a lot of television, but when I have lots of scrapbooking to do I watch episodes of shows that I have never seen before online. I had never seen Brothers and Sisters before and I am now addicted!
Thinking About: Breuklyn. Worrying about Breuklyn would be more accurate. I am ready for the school year to be done. Hopefully first grade will be better than Kindergarten.
Planning To: Read through My Cookie Bible and try out a few new recipes. I made these Carrot Cake Sandwich Cookies on Friday and they are to die for. They are basically an inside-out carrot cake. Delish. (Recipe coming soon, hee hee!!)
Dreaming Of: Birthday cake. March begins the run of birthdays at our house. My birthday is March 8th and then Paizlee's is March 15th. Carolyn and Breuklyn have April birthdays, so I am envisioning lots and lots of cake. Is it bad that I am going to make my own cake? Want a hint as to what it will look like? It will be covered in chocolate buttons! You're not surprised, are you?
Enjoying: Having a friend whose children are the same age as mine. Rebecca watches my kids once a week and I watch her kids once a week. It is bliss to be able to volunteer or run to the grocery store without stressing over my in-laws "watching" my kids. Plus, there is the added bonus of gossiping with Rebecca. It's a win-win situation.
Vowing To: Stop drinking so much diet Pepsi. I swear. My kidneys are going to revolt.
Working On: Magnetic fishing poles. My mom made them for us when we were kids and we always had a lot of fun "fishing" for the fish that had paper clips attached to make them magnetic. I think that they would make a fun alphabet game for the kids.
Excited About: CAROLYN WILL BE HERE IN 19 DAYS!!! Um, yeah, I'm a little excited.
What are you up to???
