Monday Goodness: Strugglin’.

Time to pay for those lovely three days off by getting back to work. And working late for the next few days just to make up for yesterday’s freedom. Posting might be a little lighter than usual, but hang in there because I promise to be back to your regularly scheduled blogging as soon as work permits.

PS: Everything worked out and as of July 9th I’ll be an official homeowner! I can’t decide whether to shout with joy or throw up now…

Happy {Memorial Day} Weekend.

Just working on some last minute projects that need wrapped up before the much needed 3-day Memorial Day weekend. Looks like much of my time will be spent going back and forth making an offer on a house (eek!). I promise to share more information – and excitement – as things begin to unfold. In the meantime keep your fingers (and toes) crossed that it all works out and hopefully I’ll have some exciting news to report come Tuesday!

Happy Weekend!

The Daily Eat: Creamy Key Lime Pie.

I’m not a pie lover with the exception of Key Lime Pie. There’s just something about the tart/sweet combination and that strong citrusy lime flavor topped with freshly whipped cream that does it for me. All I know is that I’ve never met even a one I didn’t like and that it screams Summer! to me which is really fitting for this Memorial Day weekend.

The Daily Eat: Pop Up Pancakes.

Thanks to Scrubs the word “brinner” is now a permanent part of my vocabulary. (Breakfast for dinner = brinner) I think given the option I’d prefer to eat breakfast food for dinner – it just seems to taste better. Or maybe it’s just that my tastebuds are awake by then. These Pop Up Pancakes are a great idea – imagine all the possibilities of what you could fill them with.

Peter Callesen.

Peter Callesen is a talented artist specializing in paper cutting. Detailed paper cutting I might add. His themes usually rotate around fairytales and childhood memories. i utterly heart his work and the way Callsen’s make-believe worlds spill over into reality.
