Latest Shenanigans



I've abandoned my blog for a while I've realized. But no more! Lauren has been blogging like crazy, so I am inspired to be more intentional with this little project. Heaven knows my life isn't THAT busy living in rural Manitoba. So, an update on my latest adventures...

1. I fried our keyboard. Yesterday morning, in my sleepy state before heading out the door to the office, I knocked an entire glass of water on the keyboard. I frantically dried it off, and it seemed to be alright, but by day's end it was dead. *sigh* Taylor bought a new one today. It's the strangest keyboard ever. It's rubber and rolls out like a mat. And ironically, or intentionally, the keyboard is waterproof.

2. It's the weekend! It was one of those weeks that, looking back, if you were to ask me what happened, I would not be able to tell you. I do know I didn't get enough sleep. I consumed a lot of chicken wings. And my husband is awesome.

3. 4th of July! What a stellar day. Taylor celebrated his first 4th south of the border. There was picnicking, and firework watching with our beloved Kelley family. We also say my family for the first time since the wedding. I intend to post pictures from that evening soon.

4. I love baking and cooking. I've found that it is fantastic way to de-stress. So, in honor of a long week...Chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting and dark chocolate shavings!




(I love that apron. It was bridal shower gift from my friend Kari. She MADE it! So great. Also, picture #2 really accentuates my lack of sleep. Yikes.)

  1. I wonder how one of those cupcakes would hold up through international mail... they look fantastic.

    I think that your new keyboard sounds fantastic. It's only a matter of time before I bathe ours while in a sleepless stupor. And I absolutely love your apron. It's so... homey. :)
