Bakery in the Kitchen

Too many pumpkin things.

(all made from the exact same batter, but we ran out of muffin pans.)

Busy Week Ahead...

This week is going to be quite busy for me, so don't expect posts Monday, Tuesday, or Friday. To cover for the lack of posting, here are some fascinatingly lovely pictures.

(I don't know if you are all familiar with Doctor Who, David Tennant, or the fact that people photoshop him into the weirdest places, but this is one of my favorites. Rapunzel actually got photoshopped into a picture from Doctor Who...)

Here's another one

And don't forget this one...this is a classic

Ah yes, don't play with fire, kids

Still haven't figured out why the electricity has a face???

This is strikingly creepy. (have no clue as to how this got on my floor)

SPRING IS HERE!

*cue class of preschoolers singing*

Well anyway, we were planting some things (okay a lot of things)

and believe it or not, this is called Johnny Jump Up! 

Friday morning activities...

NO SCHOOL TODAY!!! This is what I was doing instead: PANCAKES!

the first

the last

(I feel like Greaser pancakes would look more like the last one...)

No more sunsets...

since of Daylight Saving Time, the sun rises (and sets) later than it used to, resulting in the sun hardly being up when I am up and ready to go. But it does mean some pretty awesome cloud pictures! (sunrise clouds!)

no that is not a pyramid in the bottom right corner of the picture. it is simply the top of a building. 

BONUS: My summer starts in 44 school days (not counting weekends or spring break) and I am SO ready for it to come back. 

Imagine this...

Okay, you see a person walking out of the grocery store, trying to hide their purchase. You are curious to see what this person is trying to keep secret. Dessert to break their diet? A super secret stash of carrots? Watermelon? Steak-ums? DID THEY STEAL SOMETHING??? Then you get their chance. They drop the package. Well it's certainly not a watermelon. You whisk by, pretending to go into the store. Then you see it...the package is none other than...

Ceiling Fans

Have you ever really thought about them? I decided to look up some 60's style ceiling fans, and the majority of them looked like ones from today. This is my ceiling fan:

Growing Up

I already had to move some of my babies into bigger pots!

Aww they grow up so fast!

(no seriously these things grow like weeds)

Bonus

While I've got butterflies on the brain, look at this fancy little guy!

it's SEE-THROUGH!

Greaser Butterflies

Yes, butterflies. This one's for you, Sam.

Dallas

Johnny

Sodapop

Ponyboy

Steve

Darry

Two-Bit

Cactus Comback

I saw this garden full of cacti-type plants and I really liked it, which then reminded me that my cactus grew a new arm! I thought it (Two-Bit) had died 'cause it turned brown on top but now it's growing again!

A quote

Not quite sure where I got this, or where it came from, but I like it.

The outline reminded me of a greaser and I feel like the quote fits. 

Good stuff

To add to my collection of heart shaped food, I give to you The Gluten Free Chocolate Cookie:

Okay, not my best, I know, but maybe this nice fact will make up for it.

Ralph Macchio still has the shoes he wore when he played Johnny. That's a long time to keep a pair of shoes...

Cookies!

Today I made chocolate chip cookies, that actually came out nicely and tasted much like chocolate cake. I think the Greasers would like these.

(There were more than this)

I AM BACK!

I am back! The trip was fun, for the most part...BUT LOOK WHAT I SAW

DO YOU SEE WHO THIS IS?

DO YOU SEE WHAT THIS IS?

Oh and then there was this...it should say venomous, not poisonous. Either way it was not the best first impression of the place we stopped at after a 4 hour drive.

This was on the picture in the hotel motel we were at. There was also a ladybug on the ceiling. 

And last, we watched Spiderman on our EXTREMELY long bus ride and C. Thomas Howell was in it. (for like 3 minutes but whatever)

Something to think about...

While I am on my three day break, think about this:

What does ballet have to do with The Outsiders?

(3 of these pairs of shoes are mine {top pair are not})

Updates and reminders...

Update: Cherry's birthday is in 5 days (March 8th)
Reminder: I won't be here Wednesday until late Friday night!

Not gonna update your blog for 3 days? Fine. I can deal with that. 

Corn Faces

I was eating soup, and BAM!

Corn faces. 

Happy Birthday Johnny!!!

IT'S JOHNNY'S BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!
