Busy Season Blues

We have come upon that time of year that us tax accountants call "the calm before the storm." Unfortunately this storm has hit Scott's office already, so he has been missing on Saturdays. We will be looking forward to having weekends together come April 15th.

With all this free/alone time, I've been able to keep fairly busy. From running errands, making meals to freeze and working on my list of crafty art projects. Thank goodness pinterest has allowed me to keep track of little projects I'd like to do, because now I have quite the back log!

This weekend I'm making cookies and most likely taking another stab at homemade pasta with this girl.

Seriously, since Pinterest and I have found each other, I have really "stepped up" my game and have tried a lot of new things. Here are a few of my favorite finds:

Recipes:

Quinoa Mac & Cheese

Soy Braised Chicken

Baked Mushroom Risotto with Caramelized Onions

Chicken Enchilada Soup -- Wow! This is delish!

Crafts and things around the house:

Scarf Organizer

Cupboard Organization

Invite Ornament

and of course ... the next items on tap:

Backyard Fire Pit

Flower Necklace

and much more! believe me, the list never ends..

10 on 10 (2 days late)

Better late than never. I forgot my camera on the 10th, so here is my makeup session. See more 10 on 10's here!

Seattle's January Freeze

So I'm sure you all heard about our little snow storm up here in the Pacific Northwest. Especially you I-can't-even-drive-in-the-rain-but-feel-the-need-to-call-people-snow-wimps residents of Los Angeles.(ridiculous!)

For your viewing pleasure here are a few pictures of our 3 days without power in the bitter cold.

What, you want to get your mail? So sorry, Mr. Freeze incased your entire mailbox in an ice cube! Rain, sleet or snow - but not ice, I guess!

Yes, somewhere in there is a hydrangea plant!

And last but certainly not least, one person really enjoyed herself!

Phone Stacking Game

I think this is genius! and quite frankly I'm really excited it's catching on. I think quality time spent with people is slowly becoming a thing of the past.

I'm willing to take this challenge at any dinner people!

A New Year and (here's hoping) a new commitment to the 10 on 10 project. Going to do my best to stick with it this year!

Our trip to Victoria (in pictures)

We spent New Years in Victoria, B.C. and had a wonderful time. The best way to sum it all up is in a few memorable pictures. Enjoy!

Whatever you do... DON'T TOUCH THE EGGS!

10 on 10

It has been a while since I've done a 10 on 10. However, due to recent events I have two things that work perfectly for finding the beauty in today. With a new camera and a day filled with my dog, and lunch with a good friend... here is my 10 on 10. See more 10 on 10's here!
