So the unofficial start to summer – Memorial Day weekend – is nearly over. The sun came out on Friday and tonight, but in between it was cloudy, cool, and rainy in Minnesota. (I give you Exhibit A above – a look at my brother’s shed on the farm from Sunday evening.) That didn’t stop […] Read more…
I figure it was 16 hours tops. That’s how much sleep I got total on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Some people don’t need 7-8 hours of sleep a night, but I happen to not be one of those people. This is why it would be more than a slight understatement to say I am very glad […] Read more…
When I leave the house on Monday morning, I will be heading into Saint Paul for what is easily my busiest week of the year. It’s almost time for the 2015 Midwest Poultry Federation Convention, an event our office spends months planning for and the thing that accounts for probably 75% of my workload from […] Read more…
Okay, so what day is it exactly? I completely lost track when I was in Puerto Rico a week ago for the National Turkey Federation Convention. (Don’t hate me because I just wrote that. Admit it – you would be the same way.) I got back late Sunday night and then hit the ground running […] Read more…

Sunday was a beautiful mix of baking, laundry, blog writing, piano playing, and watching The Sound of Music for the gazillionth […] Read more…
Happy Friday, everyone! It’s been a busy and productive week leading up to Christmas and I’d say I have just a few small things to cross off my to do list and I’ll be ready. Apparently I’ve been a little lax at documenting my week in photos, so I’m just going to write five random […] Read more…
It’s Sunday night and Joe and I have assumed our usual Sunday night positions on the couch: I’m blogging (um, obvi) and he’s watching a show on Netflix on his iPad. Oh, and Earl the pug is content to lay at our feet and snore the evening away while Teacher Man is already upstairs sleeping. […] Read more…
