It has been a week full of pizza, Chinese takeout, eating out, cereal for dinner, and Chinese left overs, skipping the gym (even though I am bathing suit bound in 18 days)... and the bathroom is still not done! The good news it is getting there, and it is all going to be worth the wait and work! My wonderful mister has been battling old plumbing, broken pipes and dry wall that feels like breaking off when you power sand and he is doing an awesome job! I spent what felt like years power sanding the walls and they still aren't perfect, but they are getting there. There was one incident that caused our bedroom window to break, but what can you do other than call a window repair company and cry a little because the money set aside for the new awesome mirror in our bedroom is just going to have to wait!
I promise pictures of the entire process will be put up once everything is done, until then here are some things to get excited about!
My absolute favorite blogger The Pioneer Woman wrote a book, it came out about a month ago but I have been so busy I have yet to pick up a copy! I know it is amazing because the first 25 or so chapters were on her blog. Read it. Love it. You won't regret it.
One of my favorite people in the entire world Miss Tenley shared a website with me this weekend. Tastebook is a pretty awesome website similar to shutterfly. Instead of making awesome scrapbooks you can make your own cookbook! I know when my mom made our family cookbook a few years ago it blew my mind how much work she put into it. I also love that book with my entire heart. Check it out!
Crepes. We went out for dinner on Saturday and had a sushi roll that came in a freshly made crepe. This has had me craving a delicious desert crepes for the past 48 hours. Then I remembered that I had bookmarked a chocolate banana crepe recipe. Hello tonight's desert plan, it's not like I have to be in a bathing suit in 18 days or anything!
Finally, I am loving the new duvet and duvet cover we picked up at Ikea this weekend! It is the perfect weight for summer and is nice and soft! After a long week/ Saturday we decided a trip to Ikea for inspiration would be a nice treat, and it was. I have dreams of an entire room of bookshelves making an awesome library and lots of other fun treats!
Whew! I'm tired just reading about your week Chelsei! Sorry to hear about the window . . . bummer!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see pictures . . . what color blue did you decide to go with?
Love you lots,
