A Very Boring Sunday

Scott is out of town in his hometown of Cudahy, WI this week, so again it's just me and kitty.

I went out the night before to meet up with some old friends from back home. I stayed out pretty late and slept in pretty darn late. 

 A lot of the food we got last week was gluten-free. I was a little skeptical about these gf oats, but they tasted like regular oats and cooked quickly.

I did add raspberries to naturally sweeten it. 

I replanted new seeds to the squares that didn't survive the transplants. Hopefully the garden will be full by end of summer.

I was worried today was going to be pretty lame with me just tackling my to do list. I had started reorganizing my baking cabinet when I recieved two text mesages asking me to cross the river over to St. Paul.
I met up with same crowd from the night before at Burger Moe's for lunch. I totally wasn't thinking (must still not be quite awake yet) and didn't take any photos during lunch. I quickly asked Katie to take a picture of Ann and I as we were leaving. 

 After lunch I met up with Cevonne to go wedding dress shopping. I'm glad she's excited about it or I'd never get it done. We walked around her neighborhood checking out different vintage and used clothing shops. 


I really liked this dress. Unfortunately it was a size too small, I couldn't lift my hands above my shoulders. My grandma is letting me use her dress if I want so I feel like I'd be betraying her by getting one that is two years newer than hers.

Back at Cevonne's she had me try hers on. I was suprised it fit seeing as she is 6 inches shorter than me. It's pretty, but not the look I'm going for.

We spent the rest of the evening looking up dresses online. I gave up on that and headed home. 

Later I picked up Scott from the Greyhound station. It's good to have him home again.

Yup.

Thanksgiving in the Valley, the Fox Valley

Wednesday I took the day before Thanksgiving off and Scott picked up a job "on the way" to my parents house. OK, so Tomahawk isn't quite a straight shot, but it wasn't too far askew. I so wanted to take a walk through Bradley Park along the Wisconsin River during this snowfall. I'm not sure why, but I just wanted get to Little Chute. Both my parents had to work late. Soon after we arrived my dad stopped home between jobs. We hadn't eaten since breakfast earlier this morning so we decided to go out for dinner. On the way we stopped at my dad's shop. I love Mr. Mike's away signs. He's a busy guy. We had our first out-to-eat dinner of the weekend at Cinder's . Endless french fries and really good burgers? Yum! Meadow was confused that she got ice cream for eating all her food when we didn't. I agree Meadow, I want ice cream for eating all my dinner. Back at the in-laws I put together a super-...

Yardwork, Ikea and Pumpkins

My new parents-in-law got us a dehydrator for the wedding. Knowing we were going to be cleaning up the garden and going to farmer's market, we took a gander at our millionth kitchen device during breakfast.   Scott added granola to his oatmeal.  The oatmeal was rather bland, just the way Brooke likes it.   Scott was actually cleaning up so I had to take a quick photo of him as proof.  Scott told me he was, "putting a blanket down for Peanut," while singing. During the winter months peanut needs a warm place to peer through the window. Seeing as it was nearly November, I setup his blanket for him. Seeing as the farmers market season is dwindling down, we headed to the market...once again. The close proximity to the cities central farmer's market has to be one of the best assets of living in NoMi. We were both amazed by the bounty of produce still on sale. We quickly filled up our first bag and took it back to the car....

This Is Getting Real: Babyshower Hour

We left Friday morning to travel to Wisconsin for our baby shower.  Jaspur wanted out as soon as we got in the house. When we arrived my mom said, "Do you like what I got you?" Then she told us we don't get to keep it because it was going to be used at Chelsea's baby shower.  My mom and I tried to find the baby's heartbeat with her stethoscope, but failed again.  After a long time shopping at Sam's Club to get things we needed for the party we finally got to eat.  Of course we decided to pick up a Sam's Club's deli dinner. It actually wasn't half bad. Once dinner was over I had to make cake pops while Scott made 3 kinds of sausages.  It took me the rest of the night to prep the Polish, Italian and brats. Meanwhile Brooke swore about her  distaste for white chocolate. The next morning we had lots to do to set up for the party. Of course today was the coldest day of the week. So, our backyard cookout had ...
