Tagged

Although I'm not big into this tagging thing, I decided I would do it this once (for Karey, and because I finally have some free time). I promise I won't pass it on to anyone else though. If you wish to do it, feel free.

1- Attached or single: very attached and happy

B- Best Restaurant: recently Casey and I have had a fascination with Texas Roadhouse. I think its because we haven't gone out to eat much lately, and we really like steak. (and their Cinnamon butter and fresh rolls are SO good)

C- Cake or Pie: I've never been a huge fan of either. Of course I like a good cheesecake now and then.

D- Day of Choice: probably Saturday

E- Essential Item: sweaters and blankets in the winter and flip flops in the summer

F- Favorite Color: blue with pink coming in a close second

G- Gummi Bears or Gummi Worms: That's a hard one. I would say worms.

H- Hometown: Farmington, Utah

I- Indulgence(s): all sorts of good, but not good for me, food

J- January or July: No question here. July all the way, although they left June off...

K- Kids: nope

M- Marriage Date: September 2, 2006

N- Number of Siblings: 2 (older brothers), and no, I'm not spoiled rotten (my mom says, I'm spoiled, but not rotten)

O- Oranges or Apples: I have a minor allergy to apples. My throat gets all itchy, but it goes away if I eat something else. I would have to choose oranges.

P- Phobias or Fears: I don't like dogs. I watched a little too much CSI and sometimes I get scared of crazy people breaking into the house. Its better in this apartment since we're on the third floor and its so small, I don't think I could miss a major event like that. I also had as a child, and it continues, a weird and very strong fear of bears.

Q- Quote(s): Is this supposed to be something I say a lot, or a quote I like? I'll have to think about it.

R- Reason To Smile: The sun and warmth. I'm SO glad winter is over. Every time I think about I can't help but smile.

S- Season: Summer.

T- Tag Three: I'll pass...

U- Unknown Fact About Me: Whenever I have to come up with something like this, I always say I was in a shooting at the US capital building. I'm not sure how many people who read our blog know this already.

V- Vegetarian or Oppressor of Animal: Reference the above "favorite restaurant"

W- Worst Habit: I can think of almost any excuse not to exercise. I'm trying to be better!

X- X-Rays or Ultrasounds: Haven't had too much of either. I try to avoid the doctor as much as possible.

Y- Your Favorite Food: There can't be just one. I love enchiladas, lasagna, ice cream, popsicles, fresh strawberries, pineapple, rice crispy treats. That's what I came up with off the top of my head. It is in no way inclusive.

Z: Zodiac: Cancer


I made it through. Go me.

Spring!

In the past few days it has gotten warmer. Today it was 70 with the sun shining and the flowers are starting to bloom. After a long winter, it feels really good.


I just wanted to share my joy about the changing of the seasons. I hope you are having spring weather where you are!

How Casey bakes bread

Casey and I both like to cook, although one of us seems to do it quite a bit more than the other. I'll let you guess which one. For Christmas I got him a french bread pan because he really loves sourdough and french bread. He has made is successfully several times, but we thought it would be a little better if it could rise a little bit more. He found the warmest spot in the house, on top of the computer, to help it rise. I just started laughing when I saw it tucked away in our office. It turned out great though. :)
