What have we been up to around here? Well, one of my new year's resolutions was to keep the house clean.
|
Our bedroom is still clean... |
|
Our Closet doors are painted, but not yet installed... |
|
And our hallway is still clean, but that's about it! |
|
Kim and Marty gifted us some of the best oranges in the world, (from their orange tree)and I finally made the fresh squeezed juice I've been craving for months. |
|
I made this really yummy and healthy chicken "salad" with chicken, Olive garden Dressing, artichokes, kalamata olives, wilted spinach (bc I'm afraid of food poisoning) and lettuce. I kind of want to eat it everyday for he rest of my life! It was that good! Daniel and the kids weren't that into it, so I served it with a side of frozen mini-chimi's. Yin and Yang. |
|
I planted a bunch of new stuff in the garden. AND also freaked out because I read a thing on treated lumber leeching poison into your vegetables. Thankfully science and reason prevailed and I have nothing to worry about. You know, I always thought raised beds would be the coolest, but now that we have them, I just want a regular old "in the ground" garden again. If these ever fall apart, we're definitely not replacing them. They take up a lot of space. |

This lemon basil is the bomb! |
|
This is what an aloe flower looks like. Who knew?!?! |
|
I asked if I could borrow this net thing from work. I don't think its helping at all. Also, I'm being overrun with ants! Ahhhh! |
|
We've been having really killer sunsets because of all the Vog. Again, + and - You gotta have them both. After this picture I got a lot better at aperture and ISO, and flash-less photography. So you won't be subjected to this again. Who am I kidding, you will. It's going to take me forever to learn. Cameras are so hard!!! |

And finally I ordered some Jamberry nail wraps but decided that 3-5 days was waaaaaaaaaaay too long, and I needed to do my nails IMMEDIATELY. So Soph and I busted out our glitter and cheap-o nail stickers and went to town #fab |
