our european extravaganza.
By Ally 3 Comments
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):

I’m a little behind on the blogging. My apologies go out first, and foremost, to Natalie Arant, our most loyal reader. This one’s for you, Natalie. Let’s jump back two Fridays. Originally, this is when Eric and I were going to Virginia to run our half-marathon. Unfortunately, due to Eric’s poor knees and an order…

We picked up our second share of produce from Three Springs Farm yesterday. Our CSA share brings us a basket full of fresh food every other week. So far, some of the foods have been complete mysteries to me. Luckily, the farm sends out an e-mail with recipe ideas for the lesser known ingredients (anyone…
the rest of the weekend.

After the wedding festivities ended on Friday night, we had the rest of the weekend to do whatever we pleased. And since Monday was a holiday, we weren’t in a big rush to get home, so Eric and I wanted an adventure. I feel like we don’t really live spontaneously, as Eric and I are…
wedding festivities.
My plan was to write these posts each night while we were on our mini-vacation to Louisiana, but when you’re going to sleep late and waking up early, things never seem to go as planned. We headed to Baton Rouge for my friend Becca’s wedding on Wednesday. After spending the night with friends in Mississippi,…
the quest.

We began our journey to Louisiana on Wednesday. We learned a few lessons from our last trip to Baton Rouge: 1. Avoid running over things in the middle of the road. 2. Go around Elizabethtown to avoid traffic. Taking these lessons into consideration, we began our trip with a detour through Hodgenville. Apparently this area…
homemade croutons.
I love croutons. Back when I refused to eat vegetables, I would simply eat the croutons off of salads. I realize that croutons are one of the less healthy salad garnishes, but they taste so darn good. And if they can get you to eat some greens, croutons are fine by me. After picking up…
the weekend.
I’m really beginning to love weekends. I guess I’ve always loved weekends because they have been school-free zones, but now that they are also homework-free, they are even more enjoyable! This weekend came with the bonus of glorious weather, so we tried to spend as much time outside as possible. On Friday evening, we headed…
a random collection of recent days.

I feel as though our lives have been a bit random lately. Here’s a random post to go along with our random lives. Last weekend, we went back home to celebrate my Mom’s birthday and my college graduation. I made my mom a birthday cake. Now, we all know that cake decorating is not my…

Well, we can finally cross something off our bucket list! We signed up for a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) membership a few months ago, and just picked up our first basket of food! First, let me explain the whole ‘CSA’ concept. I did a project on Community Supported Agriculture in one of my agriculture classes…
fajitas for two (or four, or six).
By Ally 3 Comments
I figured it was about time to share a recipe for a weekly staple in the Ringer household. Fajitas. Steak fajita bowls, to be exact. Eric told me recently that this is his new favorite meal, which is great because it’s super easy and is a great way to get some veggies into our bellies….
