  • Thankfully it will be low 90s today and not so humid! Yesterday was over 100.

    Today I'm finally learning how to use my sewing machine at a craft class.

    Tomorrow we're just hanging out I think. I need H to patch some walls so I can paint.

    Sunday we're doing lunch with MIL and FIL

  • Cari-Have fun with your out of town family!  Nothing like having a sister in town!

     Today we are just relaxing and getting packed up.  I might take Cole to the pool again for an hour or two.  My big project for the day is shredding a huge pile of old bills and mail lol.  Oh and making a batch of baby food.

    Tomorrow we are heading out of town again.  We are dropping Cole off at my parents house so he can nap, then picking up my nephew and taking him to Chuck E Cheese for his birthday present.  Then we are all meeting up at my cousin's grad party at 4:30.  Then I am going to book club with some friends, then staying at my parent's house for the night.

    Sunday we are going to my sister's house for a huge birthday party.  Half my family was born in the summer so we have one big birthday party every summer.  We are celebrating 4 adults and 3 kids birthdays.  Then we are headed back home to get ready for the work week. 

    Should be a fun, although exhausting weekend. 

  • Cari - I hope you enjoy your time with your sister!

    Sounds like everyone has good plans so far.

    We just had my SS's for a week, they went home last night... so today I rest, lol! I actually have a mani/pedi appt. this afternoon so I can use up a gift certificate I have & then we have no real plans for tonight.

    Tomorrow we head back out to pick up the boys again for the weekend, and will try to stop at the park on the way back. My son is going to a baseball game & having a sleepover with his dad Saturday night, so probably a movie night for the rest of us.

    Sunday I'm taking Maggie (dd) to a friend's first bday party & then we will probably hit my in-laws so the kids can go swimming. Then back to drop the boys off with their mom, always the worst part of the weekend :(

    Luckily a pretty lazy weekend. I can't wait for next week because effective Monday I get my sick & vacation time for the new year, so I am taking next Thursday & Friday off! 5 day weekend next weekend, woohoo!!!!

     Have a great weekend everyone!!!

  • Kristen & Danielle- Thank you! Its so nice when they are in town we only get to see them a few times a year.  Next 2 weeks will be busy for us! 
  • Wow it sounds like everyone has busy weekends planned!

    It is crazy hot here.  100 yesterday, and near that today with more humidity.  Ugh.  So I think our weekend will probably be pretty lame.

    Today: hanging around my parents house while their chimney gets fixed.  I'm bored right now, but on the plus side I get to hang with their rescued lab, ziggy.  He's hilarious.   DH and I might see a movie later.

    Tomorrow:  nothing.  Cleaning probably

    Sunday: church and nothing else!

  • Cari, have fun with your sister in town.  

    Sounds like many of you have fun plans.

    As of now, we have no plans.  I am sure something will come up.  But I kind of like that we have nothing we have to do!

  • Hello there!  Sorry to have been MIA!

    Today: Nothing much.  My car is at the mechanic, so I'm stuck in the house.  I'll do some laundry and some touch-ups around the house.

    Tomorrow: No clue...

    Sunday: More of the same, but my online class starts so I'll have something to do.

     

    We're having a pool party out east next weekend - it was supposed to be this weekend but we moved it, hence the lack of plans.

    RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
    You made my wedding day complete.

    Thankfully it will be low 90s today and not so humid! Yesterday was over 100.

    Are you enjoying the massive thunderstorm right now??  It's pitch black & pouring...

    We don't have much going on this weekend. We are having some friends over on July 3rd,  and I am going to make some homemade ice cream every day until then...  that is our excitement for the weekend! I have to give a few lectures next week, so I am happy to have the low key weekend before that.

    I was in Joanne Fabrics during the storm! We could hear the thunder and the downpour though. 

    Do you have any recipes that you would recommend? I have an ice cream maker in the basement that I haven't opened yet.

  • Buy Jeni's splendid ice cream cookbook:  http://www.amazon.com/Jenis-Splendid-Ice-Creams-Home/dp/1579654363

    I've made salty caramel, chocolate & roasted strawberry buttermilk from that book- and they've all turned out great. 

    I made nutella ice cream last week- and it was simple & you really don't even need an icecream maker for it. It was also INCREDIBLE. I mixed all ingrediants using a blender.  And now i can't find the recipe online- but it was similar to this one: http://www.scoopadventures.com/home/nutella-ice-cream.html

    And if you want to try Jeni's (but it's $10 a pint!!)- they sell it at Lemon Tree Grocer in Downers Grove & at the Standard Market (in Westmont,  just east of Cass on Ogden).

    Jeni's is delicious!  Shipped to you from lovely Columbus!  

    We make all our ice cream with the base she has in that book.  Mmmmm we have Roasted peach (imagine that) in our freezer right now.
