Apples to Apples

Good Evening,

Despite only 6 hours of sleep, I had productive day at the high school and left feeling content. I met with a few of the guidance counselors about my newly-assigned cases and made phone calls to parents. I’m just so pleased to be working at such an awesome place with welcoming, friendly faces:)

…apple, white cheddar, and jam sandwich with a side of yogurt + oatmeal squares and, obviously, an apple.

It was a hot one in Boston, so I soaked up one of the final days of summer on the bleachers of Jon’s soccer practice; I just zoned out for a while until I received some exciting text messages about college friends potentially visiting for my birthday festivities and got sooo excited for October!!

I can’t tell you how happy I was to come straight home after babysitting and relax this evening. But before relaxation, I sliced six apples for one of my favorite childhood dishes: stewed apples. Something about these plus the fall reminds me of watching Full House and waiting for dinner to cook when I was little.

I cooked the apples down with water and added a lot of cinnamon and a little brown sugar at the end.

Served with Annie’s mac + cheese with peas.

All that was missing was an episode of Full House! I’ll have to settle for House Hunters on Hulu. Night!
