Late Post...

I went home about 2 weeks ago and had a long, fun 5 days with family and friends. As usual, we seemed to eat our way through those days. I had dinner with family, lunch with friends, even a few breakfast treats. What a great way to spend the time!

My goal was to take a bunch of pics with everyone I saw, but that just didn't happen. But I was able to grab a few cute shots.


Little Miss Ellie looking cute as usual with her new haircut. And could her eyes get any bluer? She gets so much bigger every time I see her!!





And I was able to catch up with Lacey and Reese who was on her best behavior. She's one happy baby!

As usual, the time I spent at home flew by. But I was so glad that I was able to catch up with so many friends and family. I'm already planning my next trip back!

Our Valentine's Day

I was happily surprised yesterday morning when Scott told me I had to be at a spa at 12:00. He set me up with a facial, manicure and pedicure. What a great way to spend the day!

After a leisurely 3 hours spent getting pampered I came home and had to do something for him...

So I whipped up some chicken paprikash for dinner and chocolate cupcakes for dessert. We had a great Valentine's Day at home.

Hope you all had a great one too!

The Twilight Zone...

That's where I feel like I'm living right now. Here's what happened...

My boss: "Anyone have any ideas of what I should bring for our breakfast meeting?"

Me: "Chocolate long johns sound good." Mind you, this was a joke.

Every other person in the office: "What's a chocolate long john?"


I was stunned. I had to explain what they were. I got, "oh, you mean an eclair?" No, a donut, but not the same shape. "A crueller?" NO...A LONG JOHN!!

So I had the great idea that I would go pick some up in the morning before our meeting. And guess what happened...

I went to 2 donut shops and they didn't carry them!! They had something called a chocolate stick, but it was so not the same. So I went to work empty handed.

I immediately called Scott and asked him what kind of place did he move me to that they don't know what this is?
