IF YOU WERE HERE FOR TEA.

*  Two of my all-time favourite bloggers are on hiatus.  It's not nice.  It's only day two and I'm already hoping they re-think their sabbaticals :) 

*   Smelly shoe season is officially HERE.  We have a perma Dr. Scholl's in the shoe bin but I'm sure it will require replenishing by mid-week! 

*  WOWEE FINALES!  Everything is finishing up - Survivor, Amazing Race, Apprentice......thankfully the BACHELORETTE begins TOMORROW!!!  YAHOO!  And this time my Nan is watching it too!  It will be so fun to discuss this program in the summertime :)

*  THE WEEKEND:  Thursday night we were poets with the Huffho's and wrote a mother's day poem for our Kuwaiti mama's.  On Friday morning/afternoon Phil had ball and I stayed home to work out and bake.  On Friday evening we hosted the mother's day event with brownies, vanilla icecream, poetry recitals, and gifts!  On Saturday Phil had MORE ball and I ventured to the mall with the Huffho's to pick up a garment steamer and curling iron.  And yesterday afternoon we rearranged the living room!  It is more open for hosting, yet seems less cozy with just us here.  I don't know about it yet......we shall see! 

*  Today it RAINED....FOR REAL!  It wasn't just a light pitter-patter either!  It was honest-to-goodness rain!!!  The funny thing about rain here is that it makes cars DIRTY, not CLEAN!  Haha.

*  This week is our final week of learning NEW STUFF in class!  I announced this during today's lesson and the kids had quite the celebratory reaction :)  Imagine - they will soon be grade 7's!  WOWZERS!

*  Walnuts.  They are super trendy in the fitness world and I did my very best to hop on the walnut wagon last weekend.  We purchased a container just to see how we would like them.  Ha.  If only my "first impression" face was videotaped.  It would have been MORE hilarious than the "panic room" security tape!  Ewwwwww.  Perhaps we can get rid of them by sneaking them into some baking.  Walnuts are one trending health food that I refuse to integrate.  ICK. 

*  I love watching Phil read instruction manuals.  He's so darn adorbs.  I can see his mind soaking up every single direction....

Okee dokee.  OFF TO STEAM - broccoli AND clothes!!!

Missing you,
XOXO
