::yawn:: Mornin ladies

How were your weekends?

I need more sleep... but mine was good. I made pumpkin spice cake balls. They're pretty good, but I like regular ones better.

Re: ::yawn:: Mornin ladies

  • Hey jcam! I don't have any exciting weekend news to share, I worked, and we were busy, it looks like the holiday shopping season is in full force already.

    How does one make cake balls? I've never heard of that..

  • I need more sleep too!

    My weekend was good. Friday I just spent time with a friend. Saturday morning I was lazy and read. Saturday afternoon went out to lunch with DH and then we did pictures for our holiday card. Saturday night out for a yummy dinner with bff. Yesterday I met my mom at Foxwoods for some relaxing at the spa & a yummy dinner.

    Happy Monday!

  • Yawn is right. I sleep in too much on the weekends and have such a hard time getting to sleep Sunday night which makes for a rough Monday.

    Saturday kinda sucked cause we had to go clean our old apartment.

    Yesterday I went out looking for an ornament for an exchange I'm doing with another board and totally failed. I think I found one I like online last night (after HOURS upon hours or searching).

  • Yum! I don't like pumpkin but I do love cake balls... my FIL told me I'm not allowed at his house without them!

    Weekend was good- I got a haircut, went out to dinner & a movie with friends... Go see The Blind Side. It was incredible!!!!!

    Yesterday we had my friend's "Friends Thanksgiving" and that was a good time. We weren't able to watch the game so DH was a little bitter.

    This morning I could not get out of bed. I had the kitten sleeping on me and the dog snuggling and there was no way in h.ell I was getting to work on time!

  • Friday I baked some stuff for the weekend, Saturday we cleaned and then went to lunch at Nashoba Winery with my parents, then to my cousin's Christmas decorating party/dinner, and  Sunday..... Sunday I had food poisoning. I spent the day on the couch. We watched the "Next Iron Chef" marathon on the foodnetwork, which maybe wasn't the best thing for me to watch.

    Today I'm working from home, I just have to run into lab to take a reading of the experiment I have going, and grab all the data and bring it home to analyze from the couch.

    It's wicked easy - bake a cake, break it apart when it's done and mix it up with a can of frosting. Roll into balls and dip into melted bakers chocolate. These ones were different since they were pumpkin spice, but still easy. I'll blog about them later, I just need to take pictures of them first.

    mornin'

    crap - I forgot the "how was your weekend" part... still haven't had my coffee

     the weekend was ok, but I feel like I didn't get half the crap I wanted to get done done.  DH and I started xmas shopping, and we finally bought coffee/end tables for the living room... other than that time was wasted watching Season 2 of True Blood... good times.

  • Good morning!  I had almost no sleep last night....just super restless.  I had to drive H to work this morning, and I just got home due to all the traffic. 

    My weekend was good.  Saturday we met with our new dog walker, and then had about a million errands to run.  I made a new recipe for dinner Saturday night that H really liked.  Yesterday I spent the afternoon with my Granddad.  It was wonderful!  We watched an old home movie from when I was a teenager.  He actually slept through most of my visit as he getting over pneumonia, but it was nice to just hang out with him.

      and  Sunday..... Sunday I had food poisoning.

    Oh that sucks.  Hope you're feeling all better now.

    My weekend was pretty good.  On Friday I had a girls' night out with dinner, drinks, and bowling at King's in the Back Bay.  Saturday was a laze-around-the-house kind of day and I mostly worked on the last remaining crochet project I have on my Christmas list.  Yesterday I played in a tournament all day and we didn't do as well as we expected but still had fun.  Oh, and I got to try Five Guys afterwards--it's just like In-N-Out in California but more expensive.

    I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

    That sounds delicious! I actually checked your blog before I asked you about them, lol. Last week, I made the chicken cup thingys you posted and they were *awesome*

  • I'm a little late getting going online haha. Work was actually work this morning. Go figure.

     I had a fab weekend in Boston again :) We saw the xmas tree lighting in Fanieul Hall and went to the Boston Museum of Science. It was fun. Now looking forward to getting a couple days off come Wednesday!
