March came in like a cold, wet, angry lion and today, at least, is going out like a frolicking springy lamb.
We’re ignoring the snow in the forecast for Friday, mkay? I just refuse.
Mom came to Omaha for a short visit to help me cross the task of Baking Bread off my 33 Before 33 list. We had such a lovely time together. I should be so lucky to age with such grace and beauty.
We followed the m-bird clouds home after spending a few days in Canada. The few-and-far-between Starbucks along I-29 and I are getting to know each other quite well.
Chad and I spent a lovely weekend in Denver with a buddy of ours, hiking a bit, eating a lot, trying all the beers and talking about all of the things. I love going places with him.
What I’m reading
I linked up with Modern Mrs. Darcy to share books I’m reading in Twitter-inspired fashion. This month’s reads included The Husband’s Secret, The Magician’s Assistant, A Bride Most Begrudging, and Three Wishes. Overall, I was not impressed. Hopefully April’s selections will do better.
What I’m watching
I’m so happy to have my shows back! Chad and I are all caught up on Scandal, and I’m still keeping up with Grey’s and Nashville. Also unashamedly binge-watching Dance Academy during the dreaded laundry-folding. You gotta do what you gotta do.
I actually took this e-course in February, but the awesome community of women I connected with during the course has remained a tremendous source of encouragement, support and laughter, as we all navigate love and making it. You (women) should totally take the course, too. She’s even working on a course for engaged ladies and single women, too. Sign up sign up!
Little things I’m loving
Springtime shoes with no socks! The best. Please excuse the ridiculous creamy pale whiteness.
I got new glasses, which I just adore, and which also manage to make me look just like my 9-year old self.
Fancy drinks! We attended a craft bartending event this past weekend that was SO cool. And delicious.
EDITED TO ADD: And, I met my long-distance bestie’s long-distance boyfriend. He’s pretty great. They should both probably just move back to Omaha. The end.
Adventures in Piggery
We celebrated National Ag Day/Week and I rounded up a bunch of my favorite aggie shots. So pretty.
And I’m so grateful to those who work hard to provide a safe, abundant food supply for the world.
