Memorial Day

Thank you to everyone who has served or is currently serving our country. You are the people that help make America the wonderful place it is.

2013

I can’t believe it. Another year has flown by, and we’re moving on to 2014!! That number just looks so weird to me. 2-0-1-4. It makes me feel old. Does anyone else feel that way? (source) To celebrate this past year, I wanted to write down an event or accomplishment of mine from each month […]

White Chocolate-Covered Pretzels

Happy Friday, friends! As we speak, I’m sitting at home with Ella on my lap, the Christmas tree lit up, and a warm blanket wrapping me up. It was my plan to go back to the high school today, as my students were going to have a end-of-the-semester party with me, but school was closed […]

(Nearly) Wordless WIAW

Hello everyone! Check this out – two posts in one week! I’m on a roll! 😉 Actually, I don’t have too much time for talking typing, so today’s WIAW (my first in FIVE weeks?!!?) is going to be nearly wordless. (I’m excited to have the time again to do actual blog posts…) Thanks, Jenn, for […]

Thanksgiving Weekend

Hello all! I hope all of my American friends enjoyed their holiday weekend, and everyone else had a relaxing one, too! 🙂 I have just nine more days of student teaching, and twelve days until I graduate. In between now and then, I have a list about a mile and a half long of things […]

Thanksgiving Survey

Hello hello! Can you believe it – two posts in two days? I’m on a role! 🙂 Today is my last day of school for the week…and I’m happy about that. But I’m sad, too, because that means I only have two weeks left at GHS. 😦 I just can’t believe it. I’m going to […]

It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions […]

4th of July Weekend

Hello everyone! It feels like it’s been a long time since we last talked, but at the same time, my weekend went by too so quickly. I did a ton of fun stuff over the four day break, and have lots of pictures to prove it, so here is my 4th of July weekend in […]

Red, White, and Blue: Recipe Roundup

Hello everyone! For all of my American friends, I hope this is your last day of work/school before the holiday weekend! If not, I hope you’re at least feeling slightly in the holiday spirit. :-)I have next to no energy at this point (after a long week of babysitting and a long, busy weekend), so […]

Happy Cinco de Mayo! (Recipe Roundup)

Hello everyone! Happy Cinco de Mayo! I wasn’t planning on posting this morning, but after realizing what day it was, I thought I’d do a quick recipe roundup in honor of Cinco de Mayo. I looooove Mexican food and was actually surprised that I didn’t have more recipes on my blog. But here is what […]
