Week 2 and 3!

HI ALL!

Sorry I've been delayed on this - life's gotten busy!

Week 2: Plan and execute a three course meal for company
SUCCESS! :)

Course 1 - Appetizer - Creamy spinach dip, Cookie dip
Main course - Chicken and rice bake
Dessert - Cookies and cream bark, cookie dip, better than crack brownies, white chocolate mocha cookies.

Pretty much amazing :)

I'm sorry I didn't take pictures, but it was kinda a Oh My Gosh so much stuff and people to talk to now let's clean moment.

Week 3: Commute for an hour to work

This week I had to commute one hour to work in Humboldt from Storm Lake.
I sincerely hope I never have to do this again. Unless I can have a more scenic drive. I literally had 3 curves and 2 towns. Otherwise it was a straight road, the whole way. Ahhhh.

But I got a lot of music jamming out time and thinking time and COFFEE/RED BULL to last me a while. :)

(I'll try to be better about this, I swear!)

1st New Thing

1. I've decided to change this blog to a new thing every week! :)

2. This first week has been full of lots of firsts. I ironed my own clothes, tied my own tie, started an internship, moved into an apartment, furnished my first "apartment" and lots of other firsts. But one first is going to be my first first. And it's amazing. :)

3. My first new thing.

Better than crack brownies

First, I made regular brownies.

After letting them bake, I added a little extra goodness. :)
















And then froze them. :)















They are pretty much amazing. :) Just saying.

Stay tuned for some more new things!
