Yeah, I can't believe it just occurred to me! I was actually thinking of getting a stencil and painting something, which would likely end very badly. I'm currently obsessed with damask so I'm trying to find some in funky colors to go with my orange damask pillows.
I know Bethie's sister did it and the frames are SUPER cheap at Ikea.

It could be WORSE, I suppose. We're doing better than we have been, but still, not how I want to spend my Sunday. At least it's all neutral-ground and stuff. And, hey, pretzels!
Speaking of, if you have a mixer and like soft pretzels, make these: http://www.foodmayhem.com/2009/02/mixer-made-soft-pretzels.html So freakin good. And so easy. I am not a very precise baker or chef and I've yet to screw these up.

No stand mixer here, but I'm not anti-kneading. Those look good, they'd be great for a football/tailgating type party with a variety of dips. You could do some savory with cheese and mustard type dips, and some sweet with cream cheese frosting types dips. Yum.

There's a place near here that has a pretzel app where they give you three dips-- a mustard one, a spicy cheese one, and a cinnamon butter. SO good. The ones in that recipe come out so buttery, like Auntie Anne's pretzels, which are a major weakness of mine.
I also now want to try these stuffed pretzels, from the same site. The only thing that makes soft pretzels better is cheese. http://www.foodmayhem.com/2009/06/pretzel-dogs-and-stuffed-pretzels.html
I was going to make the pretzels tomorrow morning but I may do it now. And dip them in my chipotle hummus. Just finished eating tacos for dinner? Who? Me? Naaaahhhhhh ...

WENDAAAY. I was just thinking about you yesterday. How are you? Update on how you and Connor are doing? How is the ex situation?
Ignore my prying questions if you want. I hope you're doing well.
