What I am Loving!



1. My Yoga Ball

Or should I say, Eric's yoga ball that doubled as his desk chair until I made him not be "that guy" at his new job... I hijacked it.  Nothing relieves my back, hip, tailbone, etc pain like a good twenty minute sit on it.  I might be sitting on it now. Ahhh. 

2. This Gem

Oh yes, Rosemary found a onesie on Etsy of a Baby Ninja.  A-mazing. Love it!
PS: Not loving the fact that Roe is moving to NYC on Monday. I'd say cue the tears, but it hasn't hit me yet.

3. Yeah! Burger

Grass fed, local, organic, and foursquare discounts?  What's not to love about this place. Hella good burger, sweet potato wedges and a milk shake. 

4. My Pool Shark



I love watching Eric play pool.  Nothing spells nerd sexy like an engineer trying to play a social game and listen to him discuss angles, parabolas, and vectors. I'm only half kidding. Seriously, he's a great teacher.  I wish I had a few shots of him coaching his sister. The intensity of his focus was priceless.

5. New England Vacation
photo credit: my dad :)
Eric and I have been trying to get to Boston for the last 2-3 summers. One summer I had a car accident the day before we were supposed to leave.  Another summer we couldn't get cheap enough tickets.  And last summer Eric's sister & brother-in-law moved to Atlanta.  This summer: my dad gave us Sky Miles and my parents letting us stay at their rental house with them for the weekend. Sailing and Lobster in less that three days? Yes, please. Now....to dig out my Ralph Lauren and Vineyard Vines.... haha.  

Did I mention that our trip includes a new airport for us? Excited to be one flight closer to completing an item off my 30x30 list!


What are YOU loving this Wednesday?

Where has she been?*

It's been a while, friends. Hi! Where did we leave off?  Ah yes, the roach .  He's still alive.  It's been over 10 days.  Though, he's slowing down and looking a little skinnier than when we first found him.  Maybe I'm making it up. I've started my new job with my friends lawn maintenance company.  Most of my time has been spent learning all the new (to me) software, moving the office to it's new locations, and just learning what the company does and offers.  Chris and I have had a great time working together so far.  I'm really enjoying learning new things.  Chris has already taught me a lot about great customer service. This weekend was my last retreat with middle school kids.  It was bittersweet. We had a spirit filled weekend full of lots of laughs, low ropes, rock wall, ultimate frisbee, prayer, and learning about Jesus. Our theme was "You Never Let Go" and we discussed three parables:  The Lost Sheep, The Lost Coin, ...

Baking with Betty: Dunwoody Dip

You're probably asking yourself, what is Dunwoody Dip? And it's a great question! It's easy to make. Melty. Cheesy. Meaty. A little bit spicy. And everyone LOVES it!  The origin, though, it's a more difficult to nail down.  My grandmother, who is from Dunwoody, Ga, actually heard about this dip when she was visiting friends in Denver.  Urban legend has it that some guy brought the dip to a party in Denver and when prompted for a name he stalled and said "Dunwoody Dip." Because, apparently he was from Dunwoody.   Who really knows? All I do know, is that this dip is yummy, very easy to make, and is always the first gone at a party or family get together.  Also, Eric might have married me because of this... Dunwoody Dip Ingredients: One tube of Jimmy Dean Hot Sausage Two cans of Rotel Tomatoes - Hot Two bars of Cream Cheese Big bag of Fritos Scoops Directions: Preheat oven to 325. In a large frying pan over medium-ish heat, brown the sausage. ...
