Everytime I want something warm, something creamy, something wrapped in flaky crispy crust I go to my Chicken Pot Pie recipe. Its based off an old Epicurious recipe that included funs tuff like bacon and frenched green beans. All I really need to do on this one is make sure I can find a rotisserie…
Survival Mode
I survived. That’s what I want my t-shirt to say. The one I would wear so that when people I haven’t seen or talked to in a while ask “What happened?” I can just point to my chest. I had every intention of starting off the year with a renewed sense of purpose and felt…
Transitions
I have been wanting to sit down and just write for the last few weeks but have never given myself permission to just blog for the sake of blogging. I didn’t know if I wanted to keep doing the same thing day in and day out anymore and a part of that is the sitting…
Looking Back To Move Forward
Instead of jumping in and trying to catch up a couple *cough* weeks, I thought I’d recap what happened on the blog in 2014 and share what I gleaned from doing a 52 Week Project. I’ll admit there were weeks where I struggled to get anything up but for the most part the highlight of my…
Interstellar … I Love Sci Fi
I’ve been sitting on this post and I don’t know why. Maybe because its taken me a month of just sitting with it to really be able to grasp what Interstellar is about, there are so many layers, each in their own right deserved of thorough contemplation. Problem is by the time you read this it…
The Finish Line // Week 52
It came and left in a fury. I thought I could get it all done turns out I could not. I had to learn to let go of what could not be and accept that the world will not stop spinning if I don’t get everything done before Christmas. This year I worked the same…
Christmas Cards Past // Week 51
This week … my cards came from Artifact Uprising. I waited until the last minute this year yet I was still rewarded and caught the 25% off Holiday Card Sale. The are the 3-in-1 card, you can tear them along the perforated edge to reveal a hang tag, a square photo and I guess you…
It’s Going // Week 50
I’m not sure how I am surviving these last few weeks of the year to be completely honest. It feels like a rollercoaster ride, work, editing, sick kids, never ending baskets of laundry, lunches that are missing key things like sandwiches because mom bought the wrong type of turkey. There has to be other people out…
Chocolate For Breakfast // Week 49
The editing continues from last week’s wedding. Family session is wrapped up and now its time for some serious sleeve rolling up and focusing. I need to get the number down from 1111 ( I have a thing about 1111) to around 200-300. I started taking screen shots while I worked on them, a future post about…
Pumpkin Pie + Wedding Cake // Week 48
Epic week for me right here. One that can only be recapped in photos and not words because I am in the middle of editing last weekends wedding. While everyone was shopping for Thanksgiving staples like turkey, yams and cranberries I was poking fish. Buy the ones with the clearest eyes by the way. I…
