Whoop Whoop :). Although I completely enjoyed going home and seeing our family-I thoroughly enjoy being back in Utah and having my routine and day to day life back! I am definitely a routine type of gal and enjoy a scheduled life (although there are times that I let spontaneous activities happen).
Currently I have been very 'into' books. Seth and I-or at times just I- have been going to the DI weekly (which is our GoodWill basically). They have loads of books-all kinds. I just stroll myself along to the bookshelves, turn my intrigued little head sideways, and literally read each and every title as well as the author. Now Mind you-these books are 1-2 dollars based on paper or hardback. Although I do not need anymore books, I simply have a hard time turning great books down when they are so cheap. The saddest part of this situation is that I continue to go to the library and rent books that I haven't found/purchased yet. I almost feel like I have an addiction, but I keep telling myself, they are only a dollar. I plan to stop renting books from the library (after I read the ones I've already rented out) and start on the ones that I've bought. :)
China is another thing I am 'into'. The DI also has dishes, and I would probably purchase 15 different patterns if they would only have matching sets! While at home we went by a Lennox store. Heaven! How beautiful everything was! I basically drooled everytime we passed this store and finally my Mom said we should just go on in. I wanted each china setting they had out. Again-I WANTED EVERY china setting they had OUT! Some of the plates and accessories were only 10 dollars. At this point in time I despised Utah and living 2100 miles away from this Lennox store. I just wanted to buy plates and etc up and be serving with them as we speak. This past Christmas we ate at a friends home who had Christmas china-and she had it all-every beautiful piece that could be. I dreamed of the day when I would be able to have Christmas china-use them for dinner with my family-use them for dinner parties-HMMMMMMMMM :). Perfect! At some point in time in my life all mine and Seth's birthday presents will be Christmas china (because Seth will want me to have it and will use his birthday gift for my China because he loves me and remember-a happy wife is a happy life :)! haha kidding).
Pretty Pretty :)-Looked like a Christmas present with fruit in my opinion! Loved it.
Equally beautiful-This one reminded me a tad of Mrs. Cynthia's china-she is able to use it all winter-which would be fun with this type :).
Oh goodness-I need to quite this daydreaming and wanting wanting wanting. Don't judge my wanting wanting wanting-I'm just expressing fun ideas in my mind and some dreams of mine :).
Seth and I are back into the grind of life. He has been approved for his Master's project-Whoop! He is ready to get started on the interviews and into the next phase of his project now that he has been approved. As the end of July approaches he has and will be extremely busy with a load on his plate. That is where I come in and play lovely wife--Keep a tidy home, have supper ready for him, clean, clean, clean the bathroom, clean, and jump up and down when he comes home :). He is going to play golf this weekend with a friend and is very much looking forward to that.
We are still in the works of planning our 1 year honeymoon. We celebrated our 11 month anniversary in South Carolina soaking up the sun on the beach-what a way to celebrate! It has passed so quickly and will be here before we know it :). Looking forward to many more with this man of mine.
Sorry this is such a noninformative-uninteresing blog but I did enjoy talking about books, china, and Seth :). Some of my favorite things!
Menu: We made Chicken Pot Biscuit last night and let me tell you YUMMMMM. We are going to make some type of stuffed shell (it was suppose to be vegetarian-but we weren't having that so we are adding in some meat and comparing it to ravioli!). We are also going to try a Breakfast Pizza that looks delicious-looking forward to that. I soo completely wish that you could ship Lemon Meringue Pie, and I would ask Seth's mom to ship us some :)! I plan to TRY to make it soon-but am not to sure how it will come out. It is one of Seth's favorite pies-I love it-and we haven't had it in a while-so wish us luck!
Hope everyone's weekend is fun!
The Cook's :)
