(picture taken from Angie’s facebook page) See that monstrosity? We threw that thing down. We cleaned it. And liked it. Plus, we got the super-coveted bumper sticker that says, “I cleaned the sink at Angie’s.” I know you’re jealous, and I know you wish you could have been there. But hey, I’m an excellent sink-cleaner–Feel …
Tuesday Tell-All
*After months of sweat, toil, and constant vigilance (largely on the part of Matt, let’s be honest), our own little cosmos plants have grown and flourished from the tiny seeds they once were. Isn’t that magical? Of course, it’s nothing short of a miracle that they’re not all dead, considering that Matt and I kept …
Here’s What’s Cooking . . . Crescent Rolls
Are you sick of roll recipes? I sure am not. It’s like I have this crazy roll addiction that seems to come around every Sunday, just begging to be satisfied… Anyway, I found this recipe in The Food Nanny Rescues Dinner, and it is amazing (I think Matt ate 8 or 9 rolls the first …
Mom Taught Me…To Ask

And I will admit that it is rather convenient that this …
Girls’ Camp 2012
Well, I survived girls’ camp. I wish I could say I came away without burns or bruises, but that wouldn’t be exactly true. I promise you I wore sunscreen, and plenty of it. But it didn’t matter. Oh well–I love hanging out in my 85-degree apartment with burns all over my knees and neck and …
Pioneer Day Festivities
K, so I know Pioneer Day isn’t ’til next week. But I’m not going to be here, remember? I’m going to be having about as much fun as I can handle at girls’ camp. Luckily for me, Bountiful City was kind enough to oblige me with lots of Pioneer Day festivities the whole weekend before the …
Tuesday Tell-All
*I think I was warned about the Meidells and math long before Matt and I were ever married. But oh, how ignorant I was on how deep the hatred really runs, and how there’s nothing like a complicated math word problem that gets a Meidell’s blood boiling, and fast. *I tell you this because we …
