Back so Soon

Whole Foods actually exists out here... in Fort Collins!

Had to get us some awesome foods, including a bunch of stuff I can eat.



I mean goodness gracious, it's a rainbow of healthy food! 

We even found some Daikon which is the yummiest carrot radish potato thing that soaks up all the flavor of your soups --I'm going to try it in a Pho!

Austin found his favourite aisle.


Of course... I found mine....

hawt dog.


You know what is the prettiest thing on this planet? Shiny glazed berries and fruits on top of tarts. 

Pretty food, pretty scenery!




To top it all off --today I covered someone's rest of their shift because they had a family emergency. So that meant we could eat a nice meal together down in Fort Collins. Which has everything you could imagine.

Like Bahn Thai.

Heaven on earth. Massamun curry, friends.... ambrosia of the buddhist gods.



Uh. Who doesn't love sticky rice with coconut and mango?

IN THE SHAPE OF A HEART.

I died. 

Happy kid over here. In case you haven't figured out, I love cute food haha. Bunnies and Hearts!(Austin couldn't get enough either.) And in this photo, there were these gorgeous spring rolls (fresh rolls.) As you can see they didn't even make it in a picture lol.



**I was scared wearing a Pepsi shirt into Whole Foods was going to mean I was dismissed for promoting chemical non-organic food lol.

The Last Stretch

I am on the last little stretch before the surgery! It's amazing how in denial I can still be, thinking that I do not have anything wrong. But then you get a wake up call when your body does funky things you can't stop, and then you fall down the stairs twice. Once I popped my shoulder, and the second I popped a hip and broke my back molar coming down on my side. So I got that tooth fixed ASAP, thank the heavens it didn't damage any roots! At the dentist my mouth was opened for an extended period of time, and needles were involved. Just when you think you have this whole Dystonia thing under control.... another reminder! I got lock jaw while working as a floor nurse! My jaw had increasing pain through the week, and I revisited the dentist. Nothing wrong with my tooth. At work, it sealed shut (and not to be gross) but when you have an intense cramp like that, it causes immense pain. I do in fact throw up sometimes from the pain. Well if your mouth seals... and tons...

Snowglobes of Wonder and Joy

I made snowglobes!  I've always loved those, even as a little kid. Then I saw DIY's on Pinterest, and thought.... Why hadn't I thought of making them before?? So in a nutshell, jars, hot glue, brush christmas trees (or anything plastic-y) glitter... and then to fill the jar, distilled water, glitter and some corn syrup to thicken it! I made all of these (already had jars) for $4.00! We attempted a gingerbread house with some friends... as you can see it looks like a crackhouse.    So... I think it's best I stick with the kind of art I know haha! I made a lot of books this break, and Austin can't complain cause he's an Eng. Lit.  He's been busy cooking some more amazing meals and snacks! Those are a healthy alfredo with quinoa base, and the other are applechips! Visit our Recipe page for cooking instructions .:here:. Also, for those who don't already know after my super obnoxious facebook excitement...

Joyeux Noël

My Mom and Lance came out! Austin and I took it as an opportunity to cook the heck out of our kitchen for them! We got a white Christmas which was amazing. For two reasons: Mom and Lance are from California and so it was magical for them, and it could be our last white Christmas for a while! (A lot of schools are in the South.)  My mom's side of the family is very German so we celebrate Christmas Eve. We used to have minestrone soup, but everyone hated it. So... we turned to our California roots and make tortilla soup instead. As a kid, it always made sense that Christmas happened at night. All the pictures you saw of baby Jesus were at night with the star. My mom said when she was little, she just thought German kids were special haha! I made my mom and Lance some hardcase books, a snowglobe, and got them a ceramic ornament. Santa also surprised them in the morning with a stocking ;) My grandma Hofmann used to make these egg ornaments (she passed away in 19...
