Lots of Food.

Everything has to do with food lately... 

We said our goodbyes in Casper, and Austin's mom treated us to our favorite diner. I mean look at that milkshake! That thing is glory! In fact, there's so much YES in that milkshake that Austin can't even handle it right now. 




I miss those guys already! Kristine is staying behind to shadow a PA and work.

Knowing that we started long, long shifts and full time and then some, we had to prepare our meals in advance. Pinterest, Pinterest, Pinterest. 

That's all I can say. I was able to make gluten free turkey meatloaf, and beef and pork asian slowcooker meatballs. Both on our recipe page!

The meatloaf: 



The meatballs in which we stored in the freezer for another day:
(I froze dinner portions of the sauce by ziplocking them. That's the printmaking container I was talking about haha, good ol' graphic chemical citric acid....) 



Lastly, I have a new project I want to do (when I get time, holy cow this full-time server and front counter work we both have is killer.) When up in Casper, they had all these cool cacti, and Susan bought two for an early birthday gift! I have these small planters, and I want to make dangling cacti by making yarn macramé slings. 


Who knew cacti were so colorful?

Well, here's a nasty selfie. McDonald's has offered me a great job I'm enjoying, and it'll be crazy hard work the whole summer to save money for the school year! Nope, haven't got "coned" yet. Thank goodness I'm not in the drive thru. Tell you what, if you want to develop your multi-tasking skills.... work a crazy busy restaurant.  


I am sure I will have plenty of stories. I already do haha! 

Austin is facing a conference that will stay at the Hotel he serves at, and they all have meal vouchers. That'll be exciting haha!

All I can say is people better watch out because if they are mean to me now, they might end up in my operating room one day and before they go under I'll say, "May I take your order?"

Mwahaha. 

Cheers from Laramie, WY! Xoxo

To Be Honest.

I've been thinking a lot, and a lot has been going on.  Lorde radio on Pandora is a good way to zone out. So is sewing, and doing all those other mindless activities I love, and that keep me happy. I haven't written on this blog because to be honest, it's been difficult lately. To get the sob story quick and out of the way, I've been in a self-pity mode, and super down on myself. I had a very difficult time at BYU because of a crappy life occurrence that made the decision to leave the best decision of my life. It was hard to get my BFA between the BYU's when I transferred, and I couldn't work on a second diploma I was seeking. I ended up with the most amazing BFA situation though, and that has been a blessing. (And the most awesome thing happened too, obviously. --marriage! I would never ever change that!) The last year into my BFA I found out definitive stuff about my dystonia, including no children. And the nursing program chase has not be

Grateful.

Austin has been the best support. I definitely married out of my league.  He's been very proactive in finding lots of healthy things for my recommended diet (by the neurological disorder peeps, and an intolerance.) because my hemidystonia has had less spasms and cramps. As of lately, brown rice bread!  Seriously, it's great even if you don't need wheat-free. It's a nice change of pace! It's sweet and light. .:Recipe Here:. We grind our own brown rice to save money. Winco here in Idaho has  the best deal for bulk brown rice :)  Here's a crazy picture of my hand, this was actually the first spasm/cramp I've had in a bit. (Haha, least my nails are painted ;) ) This is actually why (for those of you who've asked) Intaglio will not be my last degree. I was informed that I've got a good chance of this happening to my right side too.  Art might get interesting! But I plan to keep doing it as a career too, no matter what!

Moonrise Bunnies

Thank you for the chocolate bunnies Carmen Family!! we may or may have not remembered it was easter? Such a Surprise! In sad news, our favorite video store is going out of business. We loved getting recommendations from the people who worked there. Austin and I had no idea our favorite date spot was going out and went to go get a movie.... and we ended up with this sweet stack!! (They sold them waaay discounted. We got all of these for the price of two new DVDs!)  It was funny because when we walked in and realized what was going on, we freaked out because we wanted our favorite movies! Everything Illuminated and Moonrise Kingdom (among others but these were the first ones that came to mind) And Everything Illuminated was gone! Austin freaked because he couldn't remember what Moonrise Kingdom was called. He said... EDWARD NORTON. WHICH ONE WAS THAT?? Of course I look at him like wtf are you talking about the Hulk or the Painted Veil or something? Fig
