I Have a License to Eat Cookies

Why?  because I bought maternity pants.  These suckers are roomy.  I won't go back to regular clothes.  No.  Shan't.  (ok, don't worry.  I'm not taking "eating for two" literally.  But seriously.  Everyone should own these pants just for comfort.)

I have spent a lot of time looking for baby furniture and baby bedding....it's just all so sweet.  I can wait to hold this little baby and kiss his or her little nose.

PS - I didn't get overzealous here and post twice in one day....this is an old unpublished tidbit.

You're Welcome.

A Small Appliance Most Likely Killed the Cat



What did I do when I knocked my favorite glass pitcher off the top shelf in the pantry while getting the toaster over down? Well, first I stared at the huge mess of shattered glass all over my kitchen floor, started crying and then proceeded to burn the bacon. I blame pregnancy hormones. Luckily, I'm married and not trying to impress the man I live with. He was understanding enough to clean the entire thing up for me.

I have also addressed the real issue at hand: that I keep most of my small appliances in the pantry...why? you ask. Well, it's less cluttered that way. And much more tidy. And gives the illusion that I have endless amounts of counter space. Plus, I don't use the toaster oven very often. I think I just talked myself to moving it back into the pantry. I took care of the most hazardous object on that shelf just the other day. Thank you, blog, for helping solidify my beliefs about Small Kitchen Appliance Storage.

On a different note, today I'm the annoying office mate that popped pop corn and made the entire office smell like the movies. Unprofessional? Maybe.

Ask me if I care.

Until next time!!

PS - it's a good thing I spell checked...I had a type-o that could have been very awkward. Panty instead of pantry.

Vive La Fall

Today's plan includes but is not limited to putting out my fall decor, drinking either a soy pumpkin spice latte with no whip or a caramel apple spice from Starbucks, purchasing mums for the front yard, getting pumpkins and gourds and locating my Autumn Wreath Yankee Candle.

Check on the Fall decorations. Time to get crafty and fashion a door wreath. On a more serious note, I have been daydreaming about my future little family of four. (Yes I include my dog. I'm one of those). I'm not going to lie, I'm already planning out the Christmas card complete with my baby bump and our cute canine. It won't be unlike the last one, in that it might have to be only from the waist up because the man of the house is wearing sweatpants and a Christmas sweater.

The stories behind most Christmas pictures are as such.

Until next time!!
