our european extravaganza.

In hopes of not actually forgetting this entire European excursion, I’m sharing the photos and highlights from our autumn trip to London, France, and Switzerland. Eric had to go to London and France for work (tough stuff, but somebody has to do it), so I tagged along and made a grand little vacation out of it.
London
This was our first visit to London, and pretty much everything we knew going in was from either Harry Potter or The Crown. So here’s Eric on that bridge from Harry Potter:
The weather was pretty “meh” while we were there, so the photos aren’t particularly gorgeous or anything, but I will say that I liked London a lot more than I expected. Not being a big city loving gal, I was surprised how much I enjoyed walking around the city.
And here’s me in front of Buckingham Palace (obviously heavily featured on The Crown):

Weekends go by way too quickly around here. I wake up every morning hoping that it is Saturday. But, 6 out of 7 times, that’s just not the case. This past weekend was jam-packed with excitement. Friday night was the first BCM event of the school year (I still cannot believe that I am no…

It’s CSA time again! And it is most certainly tomato season in Kentucky. I really know nothing about tomatoes, but my goodness, there are so many varieties! Eric and I have just recently become tomato eaters, although I’m not sure I’ll ever reach the point where I can just eat a tomato by itself. But…

It’s been a busy month! My poor computer took its last breath this month, so we ordered a new MacBook Pro! Woo! It is wonderful to have a computer that can be unplugged! (Mine would die as soon as it was taken off the charger.) But now I have a whole new operating system to…
a very harry potter weekend.

When it comes to Harry Potter, we have this little tradition with two of our best friends at home. Each time a new movie comes out, we have a Harry Potter movie marathon, where we watch all of the previously released movies in a row before going to see the newest one. Obviously, this has…

I cannot believe July is almost over. The impending end of summer is sad, but at least there’s no dreading the first day of school this year! Still, this summer hasn’t really felt like summer. I mean, it feels like summer, since it’s about 95 degrees every day, but these past few months haven’t been…

Today, July 26, 2011, marks the 2-year anniversary of our engagement! I don’t know if engagement anniversaries are really something that people regularly celebrate, but I say you should celebrate love whenever you can! For those of you who didn’t know us two years ago, I’ll share our engagement story with you. It’s really good….

One small step for man, one huge leap toward domesticity. I can do a lot of things, but I cannot sew. I can clean. I can cook. I can bake. I can eat more than Brent White (it really did happen once). But sewing, along with almost anything else crafty, has always been outside of…

It’s time to do some dreaming, folks. I’m sure I’ve said this before, but I cannot wait until Eric and I have our own home. The sweet freedom that comes without a landlord is calling to me. I’ve been living in rental homes/apartments since my sophomore year of college, and I am certainly ready to…
maple-mustard corn with bacon.
As you know, we get a lot of veggies from our CSA every two weeks. The most recent basket gave us sweet corn, carrots, and green bell peppers. So we made a meal out of it! I sliced up some carrots, grape tomatoes, and green bell peppers. Then I stirred them in with some EVOO…
zucchini cookies.
It’s zucchini season! And while I love zucchini on the grill (or the grill pan), I wanted to try something else. I have this awesome cookbook called ‘Simply in Season’ that Eric gave me a few years ago. It has lots of great seasonal recipes, so it has come in handy with our CSA veggies….
