awesome sweetness


yesterday they had a staff preview for one of the astronomer's project's, Bailey-Salgado Project, and one of the volunteers who came in started talking to me about how i needed to be careful biking home (she saw my bike upstairs) because of the crazy fog.  i hoped it would clear out before i left, but no.  when i started out it wasn't that bad, but it got more and more dense as i went along.  
i started to hit rush hour BIKE traffic and started talking to my brother.  then the path was rerouted a little bit because they were paving the regular path.  that was crazy.
as the fog got denser my eye lashes started doing something crazy.  i don't even know how to describe it.  i asked jeff if there's water in fog and kept trying to figure out WHAT was happening.  but c'est la vie.  i made it home safe and sound.
that was the awesome part.

then i was reading a blog and found this super easy recipe for delicious brownies for one.  hey, why not?  i gave it a try, with suspicion, and really liked it.

this morning after a beautiful run on the lake i was inspired to visit a new bakery and have breakfast on the lake.  it was wonderful.  i had a croissant and felt like i was in france.  well... i guess i never ate at a lake in france.  but i did eat a lot of croissants and this one was delicious.

and there's the sweetness  =)

then i made my normal trek to work on my bike.  i've taken to singing out loud as i ride to work because people get to sing in their cars and my transportation is my bike so i figure i can sing too.


p.s. if you don't already know groupon Now! has $1 deals today.  one that really surprised me was $1 trips up the hancock.  i've never been up the hancock before.

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike

I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
