Apologies from Kindergarten Barbie
…don’t ask. I did want to apologize for not posting new stories and my oh-so-witty commentary lately. My new job has taken over my life and left me exhausted for the past three weeks. Once I get in a routine I’ll be back – I promise!
But for now:

Valentine’s Day hilarity

Dave and I got each other: the exact same card, a bottle of champagne, a box of chocolates, and a goofy little gift. Proof that we have, in fact, become the same person.
Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone.

Adorable dinner. And delicious. Thanks, Sakura Bana!

Yummyummy in my tummy

Thanks to Dave’s mother’s generousity, I got myself a nice, hot White Chocolate Mocha on this frigid, FRIGID morning to keep me warm and going. Yumyumyum.

Quaker Oatmeal to Go = wonderful

So, I’ve never been one to really eat oatmeal, but I do like oatmeal breakfast bars – and these Quaker Oatmeal to Go things are freaking delicious. Not only that, you can microwave them to warm them up in their package – which is fantastic for me on a morning like this where it’s negative double digits outside and I can’t feel any of my extremities. But now, thanks to Quaker, my insides are nice and toasty and my belly is full. Thanks, Quaker!

Ramen is barely > not eating at all.

You know what I’m really sick of eating? Ramen. Does anyone know of a different, supercheap option for lunches?

I made a funny.
I was so tickled by how clever I was last night when this came out of my mouth without me having planned it that I couldn’t stop giggling (note: Dave’s car is known to smell like crayons and it has an Yankee Candle Macintosh air freshner in it):

Dave: Let’s go to Park Safari and see the giraffes.
Me: Yeah! We’ll take your car because you have the sunroof and the giraffe can stick his head in and say hi.
Dave: He’ll stick his head in and think, “Wow, this car smells like crayons.”
Me: He’ll think it smells like crayon-apple. HA!
Get it? Cran-apple? I thought it was golden.
