Dinner Ideas Anyone?

Yummy! With a name like Confetti Meatball Supper how can you go wrong?

Today at work I was going through some books that need to be weeded (ones we look at to see if they should be discarded from the collection because of damage, low circulation, or age). I came across this book that was published in 1974 and thought I'd pass along some of the great recipes!

Don't the dishes on the front and back covers look appetizing?

Mmmmm! Jello mold dinner.

I scanned the recipe for you so you can make it for dinner soon.

I love that the Frank-Kraut Dinner suggests cutting the hotdogs to make the meal fancier!

Microwaves are newfangled appliances, so heed this advice.

Unfortunately I think I'm gonna have to let this one go from the cookbook section at the library. However, if you are interested in owning this book, look for it at one of our next Book Sales!

I did it!

I turned in my LAST paper for grad school today! I'm so excited to be done with school and to not have to do homework ever again!!!

So Funny!

I love this picture of my brother and 2 nephews. I don't know what they are laughing at, but they are all cracking up!

Huh

Tonight I was on campus doing homework and saw this sign in the bathroom.

I wonder if there has been a rash of BYU students flushing paper towels. What else would necessitate a PERMANENT sign?

Newest Nephew

My nephews just don't want to cook as long as they are supposed to! My newest nephew William was born this afternoon at 3:47pm. He is 6 pounds and 19 inches long. He was due on Christmas day, but we are happy to have him now too!

Yeah!

I registered for my last semester of school this morning!

Hallelujah!!

Look what the stork brought today

Landon was born at 1:30 this afternoon. He's a little guy, 4 pounds 11 ounces. 17.5 inches long. He is so cute! I love my newest nephew!

Toddler Loves Books

Today I was working the reference desk when a mom and her toddler came up to the desk. I helped the mom find a biography. Meanwhile the child kept repeating "I need a book. I need a book!"

It was so cute!

High School

So today I went to the high school to drop off some stuff for work. I intentionally did not go at noon because I didn't want to go during lunch time. So I went at 2:00.

That was a problem. Because apparently school ends at 2:15. Oh the anxiety of being in a high school again. My dodging skills are not up to par anymore.

I don't want to repeat that experience for a very long time!

Extreme Sheep Herding

I went to the Soldier Hollow Classic again this past Labor day to watch the championship sheep herders. It was a fun time as usual.

Today I came across this Extreme Sheep Herding video and had to share!

Why do we lie?

Why do we lie? I'm not talking about major lies here. I'm talking about things like this:

When someone asks "How are you?" and you answer "Fine" when everything is not fine.

Or when I ask someone not to use their cell phone on the 2nd floor of the library, often after they hang up they apologize and I reply "It's okay" when really it is not okay.

I'm just curious if you have any ideas why we lie on occasions like this...

Cruz Collage

Here are some pictures of my cute nephew Cruz from my most recent trip to Seattle.

 

Videos

Here are a couple of cute videos of my nephew! Anytime he hears music...he dances!


Cruz says "What's that" constantly! It's cute. I continually answered his questions. I don't know that Brendan and Tatem liked me encouraging him though!



We went to downtown Seattle on Saturday and at the end of one of the piers a band was playing. Cruz decided to do a dance. You can also see his monkey leash in this picture. He does pretty good with it and only face plants occasionally! This was also the day Cruz had a faux hawk. He was pretty stylin'.

Classic Television

I watched a couple of episodes of "The Cosby Show" last night. That show never fails to make me happy!

Baby, Oh Baby

I get to be an aunt to another Nephew! He's due on November 1st!

Bragging just a little

I got a 4.0 this past winter semester.


And on a completely unrelated note, I saw this video on my friends blog and loved it! Just thought I would share.

A Whole New Me

Since I blogged last a lot has happened.

I moved out of the house that I've been living in for nearly 3 years, to a condo by the stadium.

I finished my 4th semester of grad school and now have a 2.5 week break before my summer class begins.

After nearly 5 years working part time, I've been hired as a full time librarian!

I seem to make major changes in my life all at once instead of one thing at a time!


Life sure is busy, but I love it!

New Favorite Picture

Don't you just love the look on his face? It makes me so happy!

Cure for a bad day!

So today wasn't a very good day, but this commercial made me feel better! Enjoy!

Bumper Sticker

I was driving home tonight when I noticed the car in front of me had a bumper sticker. It read "Voldemort Votes Republican" for some reason that just really made me laugh!
You can get this bumper sticker for your very own here.
