Little Chef

Rhett is really growing up. He loves to help me in the kitchen. He calls it making. He is the best maker. He can even make his own sandwich without any help.

Cute little Cart

My parents got me this cute little cart for Christmas. It is perfect to hold lots of my books. I love it. Thanks mom and dad.

I finally got Cabinet Pulls!

For the first time in my married life, I finally have cabinet pulls! Thanks to my dad for putting them up. They really dress up those builder-basic cabinets. I really want to paint the cabinets a nice ivory, with maybe a stain or glaze over them. Richard is so against the idea, that it is most likely not to happen. With our house value in the dumper, the probability is that we will grow old and gray in this house. So maybe he will soften with time.

Okay, If you want to laugh your pants off . . .

Go read Michelle's latest blog post. Seriously!

Hello!

So, I am the worst blogger ever, but if you want to see what I am up to, go check out my sister's blogs. On the sidebar, Val and Mikelle. They are much more organized and up to date than I am. You can even see pictures of me and my family. Thanks, Guys for enabling me to be such a slacker.

Kiva

Richard and I saw a program about micro finance on PBS a few months back and we both were so touched that we knew we wanted to get involved. Now we help people in developing countries to build profitable business and care for their families needs. We use Kiva. Check it out at kiva.org This is from their website:

Kiva is the world's first person-to-person micro-lending website. By enabling people to connect with and make personal loans to low-income entrepreneurs in the developing world, Kiva is revolutionizing the fight against global poverty. You can make a direct loan of as little as $25 to an entrepreneur to purchase business-related items such as sewing machines or livestock. This can dramatically improve the life of an entrepreneur and his/her family, empowering them to earn their way out of poverty.

Quirky Tag

I hope I can do this tag before I have to do some real life stuff. It's supposed to be 6 quirky things about me, I'll see how far I can get. Here goes.

1. I am addicted to Masterpiece Theatre. I know, "geek alert" I record it every week. I adore DVR.

2. I wash my dishtowels/rags with bleach separate from any of the other laundry. That is the only household chore I am particular about.

3. I never, ever read jacket covers and I hate it when someone tells me too much about a book or a movie before I read/see it.

4. I have a passionate dislike for Hooters and won't even let my husband go through the drive through to get wings. He can't even buy Hooters brand frozen wings. I am that serious.

5. I look at my food carefully and watch my fork the whole way from plate to mouth.

6. I have never had acrylic nails. I think they look nice, I just can't. It would be like my fingers couldn't breath or something, and I'd be trapped cause I couldn't get them off.
