officially unofficial

Here is my officially unofficial summer-to-do-list:

* lots of bike rides- long and short

* make good use of our new ice cream maker

* go camping

* READ

* go on at least one road trip with Z

* eat plenty of corn on the cob, tomatoes, and watermelon

* make use of local produce when cooking

* eat at as many outdoor-seating restaurants as possible

There's more... I'll continue to add!

Also, this website is very cool. Also, that Etsy shop update? It's not happening today, as studying for the Praxis has proven to be a little more stressful/demanding than I had originally thought. Next week!

back in the saddle

Today, I spent the majority of my time alternating between taking new photos for the Etsy shop and studying (more like cramming) for the Praxis I. This is what one wears while snapping almost 400 photos and dissecting sentence after sentence. Comfy cut offs, a simple striped shirt, and birthday shoes.

In between the studying and photo snapping, I snuck in a few bites of my new obsession... red velvet cake ice cream. Holy cow, is that stuff AMAZING. If you have even the tiniest bit of love for the flavor, I highly recommend running to your nearest grocer and buying a tub... you will not regret it. Your waistline might, but your taste buds?? Not so much.

I will hopefully have the shop updated by Wednesday (with lots of new goodies), so check back soon!
