For the first time this year, we broke 80 in Boston. Ahhhh, it felt fabulous. And it called for celebration with a refreshment. I enjoyed my first summer beer of the season while making Kath’s Maryland Salmon Cakes. I like salmon in general, but the canned stuff does make me a bit nervous. I was glad that I was on high alert when opening the can because I swear there was an entire vertebrate in there – not thin bones…

Happy, Happy Saturday! Yes it is. It’s so fun just having a day to myself. I’ve already gotten so many things accomplished and we’re meeting friends for dinner tonight! Last night was low-key because, after two indulgent weekends, we decided a night in was in order. Around 5 o’clock I started getting that itch to go out, but as soon as we popped open a bottle of Rheinhessen, the urge went away. This was FAB-U-LOUS. My perfect white wine and…
Thanks for the interesting comments! I had fun reading them. Today was a great average day – I was productive at work, my lunch was great, I got my sweat on at spinning, I bought fun songs on iTunes, and I have a new hair dryer! I kind of hate drying my hair in the morning, but after three days of cold, wet hair, I’m pretty excited for tomorrow morning. And, I’m pretty excited for sun and the weekend. After…
It was back to work today, but I’m so excited for another short week, that I barely noticed:) I went in a little late today because the supervisors were at a meeting and I managed to fit in a little stair climbing before work. Coming home this afternoon with the gym already out of the way was glorious. I laundered, I cleaned, I relaxed, I applied to more jobs. I desperately need a haircut and considered getting one, but I’m…
Oh hey. Is anyone else distracted by the weather these days? I just want to be outside laying in the sun! But, I was inside all day and I was super productive. I’m trying to plow through my work in hopes that I can leave my internship a couple of days early. We had four snow days this winter, so four more days have been added on to the end of the year. My goal is to be finished with…
Hi there and happy [end of] Monday! I had a very nice day that ended in a special Monday treat. I got my fingers and toes painted in preparation for graduation on Friday! I am not a nail salon person, but it’s only because I’ve never had a real job and thus can not justify spending money on that type of thing regularly. But I do love feeling girly and put together! If you went with me to the nail…
Ahhh, I had a fabulous weekend. Friday night, Matt and I took it easy and had a few beers with new Fuqua friends and then ate a late dinner at the famous Ten Tables in Jamaica Plain. I was able to get a new camera, thanks to the accident protection plan I bought at Best Buy, but it wasn’t up and running for picture taking on Friday night. The restaurant was adorable though, and I had a great burger. And,…
Another productive day over at the high school and another IEP meeting in the morning. Anyone getting up to watch the wedding? I’m actually tempted by the idea of a little mimosa gathering, but given I have to present at a meeting at 9 am, I don’t think that would be a very good idea. I might try to catch some of the news though, since I’ll be up in the six’s anyway. I attempted a treadmill run after work,…
It felt like summer today – Boston reached 77!!! Yet, I still wore my pea coat over a flannel shirt this afternoon because I’m thawing out. When I was at the park, I actually overheard a girl talking about me to another, saying “I always check the weather in the morning…I feel so sorry for the people who have on wool sweaters and coats today.” Hey, I check the weather every morning too, but Boston is unpredictable and I was…
