If I knew you were comin'....

I'd have baked a cake!






In my NEW KITCHEN!! HUZZAH!





You're probably going to see a lot more cake pictures on this site... because... wait for it...

SOMEONE STOLE THE SANDWICH VAN! No joke! So, I'm jobless.


And so today my boredom brought me to try a wedding cake recipe. Almond Butter Wedding Cake with Apricot Filling... and I decided to make my first attempt at decorating... not half bad!!

SNOW DAY!

So, today... Jax had his first official SNOW DAY!

PA People: You can still see GROUND and they cancelled school for THIS! And 80% of the school WALKS there!!!

Not that I'm not thankful- no school run or running cooking club after school with the 4 & 5 year olds... but still...
This is an early morning frost where I come from!!

The whole country basically shuts down at the thought of snow. I think this is how they make up for not having a 4th of July...wink Pictures, Images and Photos


So, we're making "warm" cocoa and catching up on our TV viewing...


AND HOPEFULLY THEY ARE DELIVERING MY NEW COUCHES TODAY!

Every Rugby Wife and their mother has ordered DFS couches in the last month.


I went with the San Remo model. I'm absurdly happy with them. They are Kurt-Sized and have a recliner in ever seat!



I hope they get here soon so I can lay on them all the lazy afternoon!

I was also FINALLY able to order the entertainment center of my dreams. And yes, my dreams are lame and housewife-like. What of it?! Wanna fight about it?! Overseas you can't get anything remotely resembling this...
But I found a way!!! A super-secret and special way!! Okay... I just had the furniture store on Feltwelt order one for me... and it may take six months... but I found a way!
Winter is making me lazy. And by lazy I, of course, mean lazier. Spring can't come soon enough...

I care little to nothing about the Super Bowl.
Sorry Pictures, Images and Photos
But my hubby was nice enough to stay home and order a Chinese take-away and watch the game with me. So, kind of an awesome Sunday DESPITE all the football involved.

I don't know what has happened in the last decade. I used to LOVE football! Especially college games. But now... I'd rather watch a period drama or a documentary!
