Hahahha! Okay, so the 18th is almost over. Can I add the first thing on your to-do listfor next week? I have been looking for cilantro ever since I had your partydip a few years ago! Finally found it today and your dip was the first thing I thought of! Yep, that's what I get for shopping at rinkydink country grocery stores!
Anyway, would you mind posting it on your blog? It was totally yumsville and I bet I'm not the only one who would love it for the holidays.

Next question- you are pretty adept at blogging, Jen. Any idea why my sidebar would have shifted clear to the botom? I looked through the html and shortened everything I could find, but nada. Grrrrr.

Anyway, thanks for the recipe, Hon, if you get the time to post it!

Bless you!!! I don't know what I'd do if I had a schedule like that. Whew! Or does the "hang on to your hats..." mean there’s more to come?

Your list makes me tired. I think I need a nap now. You really are superwoman.

And P.S.....I am relieved to know that I'm not the only person that runs through the house doing the home organization and improvement projects before the arrival of houseguests! One hour before my guests arrived for T-day dinner, I was touching up the paint in the dining room and kitchen, hanging up some new art, and dusting the top of the fridge (YUCK)which I would NOT have done if I didn't have company coming over.

Stickin' It Out

I got married today. Well, not exactly today. It was Friday, June 2. But the year was 1989 - 17 years ago. "Amazing", people say. "Good for you", they comment. "You must have picked the right one", the add. Amazing? Yes. Good for me? I'll admit it. But it has nothing to do with picking the right one, really. It's not because I found the perfect boy, and it's certainly not because he found the perfect girl. It might sound a little unromantic, but there never really is a 'right one' floating around out there waiting in the cosmos for the other 'right one' to crash and connect. There may be 'better ones'; there may be 'more easily compatible' or something or other. But the real story is you start becoming the right one the moment you vow that "you do". When I married, I had been 20 for a whole 33 days, we had just completed a 2-year long-distance realtionship and HE was five years older tha...

Week 3 of half marathon training

This week brought very cold temperatures that caused a challenge for some of my runs. It is almost impossible for me to stay comfortably warm when it gets below 20 degrees. I did my first hill workout, which is meant to strengthen a different set of muscles and increase your speed. I did that on the treadmill on Monday because the weather was dangerously wet and we were in a flood state--I decided not to risk getting drenched by passing cars. The rest of the week had runs ranging between 3 and 5 miles. My week culminated with a 6 mile "long run". I had to put that off on Saturday because the temperature hovered around 14 degrees, and the weatherman promised a balmy 20 degrees on Sunday! I really don't like running on Sunday--it is a full day of church and family dinner and activities and I am usually too pooped out to take a long run. But I planned carefully, took some extra snacks to church to keep fueled up, and headed out the door while my sweet hubby fixed lunch for t...

I Have a Dream....

Dreams come in all forms, from thoughts about how your life will turn out, to wishes about what type of car you'll drive one day to having your perfect house and so on. I would say that typically I'm not much of a dreamer. I tend to be more of a realist, certainly looking forward to things to come, but generally living practically, in the moment. I'm noticing as I grow older though, I do seem to be developing a dream of sorts--one that would become a mission, one that would recognize a passion, one that would establish a sense of purpose. I'm finding that as I live my day to day experiences, although I'm happy and content, I'm also ready to find that sense of purpose in life, the thing that makes me jump out of bed in the morning ready to dig into the job that is custom-designed just for me. I realize that I have a set of strengths, talents, gifts if you will. I'm at the point in my life where my children aren't quite so dependent on my help, my resp...
