I'm still spending large amounts of time on Pinterest. . . anyone else there with me?! The iphone app makes it accessible at all times. I know that 95% of what I like or pin on Pinterest I will never do, but I just enjoy the creative ideas and cute photos. I've actually found a few good recipes from Pinterest, so that's not time totally wasted. The one issue I have with Pinterest is that people write "Brilliant" on every single pin. I'm thinking, "NO!! Not EVERYTHING on Pinterest is brilliant". Anyways!
Here are some of my new pins.
Crispy Edemame - I love edemame and this sounds delicious. The directions say: 1 (12 ounce) package frozen shelled edamame, 1 tbsp
olive oil, 1/4 c grated Parmesan cheese, salt & pepper to taste. 15
min. in a 400 oven. I'll let you know if I try this and if it's good.
Ladder Garden - This was not a good idea for me to pin this. I am terrible at keeping plants alive so this would just be a waste of money and time for me, but I can't help but like this. It would look so perfect on my front porch!
DIY Bracelets - This pic was pinned by Lauren Conrad. I like her style and her clothes at Kohls. I think these bracelets are so cute. I like how skinny they are. She gives instructions on how to make these.
Christmas Tin - This is cute (but not brilliant). Take the cheap tins from the dollar store, spray paint and re-purpose them. Now I just need to think of something to make to put in them and give to my friends. I have some time. ;)
Smells Good - Someone wrote that this is the scent that Williams Sonoma burns in their store. I've actually used this in my house and it does smell really good, but it makes me nervous to leave my gas stove on for that long.
Directions: Fill pot 2/3 full of water, add one sliced lemon, and a few sprigs of fresh rosemary (I used dried rosemary from the spices aisle), then add 1-2 tsp of vanilla. Then just simmer it on the stove.

Micah loves to "read" his books. He's gotten really good at flipping the pages super fast. So fast that I can't really read them to him. Books are my best friend right now. I take them every where with us to help keep him occupied and quiet. :)

Funny Man
I'm in love with this video of Micah. We had spaghetti for lunch the other day and he was really enjoying it.
He was reaching for a biscuit. I had been feeding him pieces of it while I was getting lunch ready. I have no idea why he thought that was so funny. I just love his laugh!
Happy Monday!

Sail Away With Me
Have I mentioned yet that July was crazy busy?! Well it was. Among a million other things, we managed to sail away on a short cruise. I don't have many pictures of this but we did have a great time.
We relaxed, laid out, ate good food, saw some shows, met some peeps, all was good. We had nice weather and a nice room with a view.
Thank you, honey, for taking me on vacation. I had a great time with you!!!
