Sunday Somethings.

I am ridiculously tired tonight. As in – zero energy. None at all. And yet, I don’t want to go to sleep. Instead, I am eating peanut butter pie frozen custard with chocolate sauce and writing blog posts. This is, of course, what makes Sunday nights and the inevitable creep of Monday’s to do list […] Read more…

Lemon Blueberry Coffee Cake

I don’t mind telling you that I’m not ready to start a new week. Do I have to? I believe I’d like to continue my state of denial at least through Madam Secretary and The Good Wife tonight. You don’t mind, do you? So first of all, the sun actually shone in Minnesota the entire weekend […] Read more…

Easter. Family. Farm | via MyOtherMoreExcitingSelf.com

Easter. Family. Farm.

When life gets stressful for me, I always find the farm a very helpful place to get away. Is it the sense of calm that descends as we drive down the very familiar driveway, lined with decades-old trees and farm fields near and far to the eye? Is it because no matter how old I get […] Read more…

Toddler Time!

We spent time with our niece, Miss Morgan, on Saturday and Sunday morning. She’s just over 15 months and quite the little toddler now. Tonight, as I was going through all the photos I took, I realized I had captured quite a few different looks. So tonight, I bring you a melange of Morgan expressions […] Read more…

The weekend before … the big week.

When I leave the house on Monday morning, I will be heading into Saint Paul for what is easily my busiest week of the year. It’s almost time for the 2015 Midwest Poultry Federation Convention, an event our office spends months planning for and the thing that accounts for probably 75% of my workload from […] Read more…

Sunday Night Summation

You guys. It’s supposed to hit 55 degrees tomorrow. 55 degrees! That makes Monday seem almost … celebratory. But first, a quick recap of the past week: My post on Wednesday – Food Shaming – went fairly ballistic for me and I was excited to see it shared by so many people! If you haven’t […] Read more…

Weekend: Family Time & Dance Competitions

I’m sitting in the porch tonight, assuming my blog writing position. Which means: slippers on, dog at my feet, quilt keeping me warm, Joe sharing the couch with me, and Madam Secretary tuned in on the television. Joe and I love Sunday night and wish it would last longer. 🙂 My sister-in-law, Judy, and our […] Read more…

Weekend Mishmash

This past week was a bit of a whirlwind, thanks to a business trip to Atlanta that took me away from home on Joe’s birthday (last Monday) and back on Thursday. I’m not a big fan of missing my son’s actual birthday because of work; however, it has only happened once before in 11 years, […] Read more…
