An Update on the List

Today was a lonely day at the office. A lot of people were gone and being new in the workplace means no drop-in visitors from co-workers or students. I did get a lot done and got to visit with a bestie over lunch. She's just a walk away on the campus and seeing her was great!

So I was looking a my "To-Do" List and I noticed that I already checked off my mile run task. I guess I forgot I had conquered that awhile back. My next task dealing with running is to complete a marathon. I'm pretty sure I will be update the list to a more easy task in this department! Maybe a 10K!?!

Recently I have been looking up recipes on Pinterest (I'm not sure if I've raved about this yet-maybe next Tuesday?) and attempting to try them at home. I've been successful with them so far and was super proud of myself! I've made things from crock pot BBQ chicken to a chocolate cake topped off with some delicious cream cheese frosting...all from scratch! (okay, so I'm bragging a bit but I was super excited!) I also made a cute cake for our Easter Brunch. We had a few friends over and had a nice brunch together and ended with a yummy spice cake topped with the same cream cheese frosting! I have to admit, I was too scared to attempt the spice cake from scratch...that's a lot of ingredients for this rookie to try! I added Kit Kat bars around the outside of the cake to make it look like an Easter basket...another idea I stole from Pinterest! (I'm telling you...if you haven't checked it out you need too! Pinterest is awesome!!!)

Anyways, as for perfecting the art of chocolate cookies and squeezing homemade lemonade I have yet to attempt. Our lemon tree has produced gorgeous, juicy lemons and I have all that I need for some yummy lemonade. Maybe next week...

I'll take another look at the list and see what I can mark off next!

Until next time...ta ta for now!
