Being Home Sick

Do you get sick?

Silly question I know. It seems that whenever I get sick, I'm down for a few days, maybe a week. I also think that my husband has the best immune system in the world because I could get bubonic plague and he wouldn't so much as sniffle.

This past week I came down with a cold and as usual I was sick all weekend and into the week. I wanted to share some of the things that got me by.

A couple things in this picture made my cold week better. First, in case you didn't notice, there is a glass straw in my cup. I ordered some glass straws from Glass Dharma. They are amazing! Eco friendly (I was using at least 14 plastic straws a week), easy to clean, and most importantly, easy on my budget. I got the bent straws because it most resembles a normal straw to me. Secondly, I dislike raisins. I mean, I really, REALLY don't like raisins. The point is, I went to Fresh and Easy and they just opened a bakery. They make a cinnamon chocolate chip pull apart bread. It's all the amazing taste of cinnamon raisin without the raisin. So yummy, you need to try it.

Being home for so long I need something to pass the time. Doing my nails and reading one of my favorite magazines seemed like a good way to do this.

After drinking my milk, eating my bread, reading the magazine, and painting my nail, I still was sick so in order to kill some more time I did my toes.

First Day of School

It seems like everyone is going back to school! Jaxon started preschool this last week. He actually went for a few months last school year but this is his first "first day of schoool" experience. Everyone has asked how he's doing and it's kind of funny. The question almost seems odd to me. He LOVES school. He gets to go outside of the house for 2 hours, 3 days a week and see his friends and play with his teachers. Yes, I understand it's school and he's learning, but at preschool age it's a lot of fun for him. Here's some fun photos from his first day. How cute is he with his little backpack? They had this adorable little photo booth for kids on their first day. I tried to get him to pose so I could read the sign. Of course the sign turned into a bird. What can I do. I tried. Jaxon posed with his teacher. She's so sweet, it's her first year teaching and she reminds me of gum drops and rainbows and puppy dog tails. Everythi...

2 Year Anniversary

May 15th is our anniversary. For out two year anniversary we went to the Grand Canyon. It really couldn't have been greater. Here are some of the pictures from this past weekend. This was our cabin and the view from our window We learned how to lasso and saw tadpoles Relaxed and enjoyed the view I do have some travel tips for you. If a place if called "Out of this World", you really should stop and try their food. Eat a burger, take a picture, order a cake (try to be better than me and snap a picture before you scarf it down), also, order a pizza to take back to your room. It'll be worth it. Trust me.

Pake

When did life change so much? One kid become two? Stay at mom become stay at mom and worker? Errands become errands and more errands because they are never finished? Seven become seven and eleven? Wait... I may have gotten a little off track with that last one. Life is always so crazy it seems that one you finally get used to it, something changes. That's what pake is. Something you're not used to but it can totally work. A pake: half pie, half cake. Don't worry, we're not talking apple pie with frosting. It's a pie crust with red velvet cake and cream cheese frosting. Now this is a learning lesson. The original recipe I used is from  Lifetime . It was originally made on a show called "Drop Dead Diva". Total chic show but it was fun. The only thing it that whatever world they cook in, cakes rise several inches. Here in the normal world? Not so much. I've modified the recipe slightly below. Ingredients: Pie Crust - Either make your own or ...
