boisterous night

Will and I went on this date. I gave it a ten out of a ten. That's how good it was. Not like we did anything extraordinary, the guy I was with was awesome, we ate at The Smoking Apple (brisket, slow-cooked yummy beans, slow-cooked baby back ribs (most delicious part of the meal), cajun sausage, and cornbread), then we watched The Sound of Music. It was a splendid evening. 
Gym time!

food is the way to marci's heart

Food makes me weak in the knees. Isn't that awful? Don't worry, I watch my caloric intake. Sometimes. Diabetes (Type 2) runs in my family so I do have to be careful. That's why I rarely make things as good and fattening as these babies.

Muffins That Taste Like Donuts
They were really good and saturated with fatness. 


This is what I'm going to prepare Willy for dinner tonight. It should taste pretty darn good due to the fact that the recipe came from Pioneer Woman. I visit her site daily. I think I'm an addict. 

Chicken and Dumplings

dais

Daisy is a funny dog. She is Joseph (bro-in-law) and Jen's (sis-in-law) dog. Daisy was found by a dumpster, therefore, she gets the name Dumpster Daisy. They are in fact our neighbors, they live just upstairs from Will and I. We pretty much think it's the coolest set up. I'm grateful we got a chance to be so close in distance, it's going to be a shame when we won't have them as neighbors anymore. You just won't find neighbors as good as these. Maybe, but I doubt it.

Sometimes when Jen and Joseph are off making the monies. I let Daisy come down stairs to hang out with me. Seriously, guys, it's not that bad. I'm pretty good company. I think. This is what keeps me so entertained....

somewhere over the rainbow

What was I thinking when I decided to move out to Utah?! Yes, most of my siblings live here. Yes, the school I wanted to attend is here. Yes, I met my adorably awesome husband out here. Yes, there are a lot of reasons why I moved here. But, why couldn't it have been Hawaii or somewhere with a sun? It's just too dang cold for my non-circulatory body.

This is what mother nature gave me for my Christmas gift this year.




Will and I went to a tree farm, adopted our own Charlie Brown tree, stuck it in our tiny trunk, and brought the tree home to nurture. We're charitable like that.


Yikes. Can you tell it took us 5 minutes to put this tree together? Shh.

Check out that bow. I did that!

banana split goodness

I know exactly what you're thinking, because I'm thinking the same thing. I'm making this.
