Friday favorites


Chris is back working in Irving right now.

He closes tonight so he was around until 3:30.

He and the little one slept in until 1030 this morning.

Together, curdled in our bed.

I can't seem to sleep late anymore.

I CAN seem to go to bed early though.






A few of my favorite things today.




I made this once again.



This time, I added more cilantro, a large jalapeno and more garlic.



I also put an extra tablespoon of water.



Not a good idea.



Next time, I think I will cut out the water all together.



It was yummy though.



I mixed it with ranch for a salad dressing and a dip.



HG loves anything ranch, salsa, mustard and pickles.




Isn't this mug just the cutest?



I am seriously in love with it.



John Davis and Kendall gave it to us (or me) as part of our hostess gift.



It is from Anthropologie.



I am in love with their house items.




On Dr Oz recently, they made banana ice cream.



It is supposed to be a healthy and dairy free treat.



You freeze the bananas.



Peel, cut and place in food processor (I'm sure a blender would work too).
Add a little vanilla extract.



And dash of water.



Blend.



Once smooth, spoon into bowl and top with nutmeg and cinnamon.



I plan on adding peanut butter and honey next time.



Over all, this was pretty good.



Sure, it tasted like bananas but just sweeter.



Plus, very little fat.



Well of course unless you add peanut butter.



Or Nutella.



Yum.




HG had to wear her princess dress once again this morning.



We had craft time after lunch.



I'm always worried she is going to cut her hair.



Notice the cheerleader pony tail.



And the Gazelle that hasn't moved in a few months.



I can't carry it.



Hopefully soon, it will be relocated once again.





I love love love this candle.


Even when not burning, it smells wonderful.


It reminds me of my Niven Morgan Gold candle that I just couldn't get enough of.


This also was part of our hostess gift box.


The last time I was in Anthropologie, I told Chris I just had to have this candle.


_____________________________________________________________




This is the first weekend in a long time that we don't have anything planned.


Nothing at all.



Chris works all weekend.



May is another crazy month for us.


Chris travels twice for a week plus.


Chicago, Louisville and North Carolina.


We all travel to Houston and Port Arthur for a lighting fast trip.


We arrive in time for dinner on Friday night with our cousins.


Brother's graduation around lunch Saturday.


Late lunch/early dinner party at one of his favorite local Mexican dives.


Leaving early Sunday morning to be in Port Arthur by noon.


The hubby flies out that evening while HG and I make our way back to DFW.


Talk about being ready for a nap.


The little one and I go to Texarkana for Mother's Day weekend.


Visiting my grandfather.


Fishing.


Play dates.


Mother's Day lunch.


Lighting bugs.


Taking Copper for a check up.


Swimming.


Seeing family.



Seeing my Maternal Fetal Specialists


This always makes me nervous.


Always.


Even when everything is going perfectly.


They check and measure for everything.
