school picture day

Today is school picture day for my little first graders.

I can’t wait to see them all dressed in their finest.

Here’s me circa 1990:


Gotta love the polka dotted smock dress. And don’t forget the Peter Pan Collar!

CLAAAASSIC.

Nikon D90

This is my dream camera.


It costs over 1,000 dollars so I think I will be dreaming for a while.

Boeuf Bourguignon

Oh so very soon I am going to make my first dish in my new dutch oven. OF COURSE, I am going to make Julia Child’s Boeuf Bourguignon. She was the reason, after all, that I became obsessed with getting a dutch oven in the first place. It seems only right that this be my first endeavor. I’m so excited.

I hope it’s as delicious as I’m dreaming it will be!

Lead me, Julia.
Show me the way to bon appetit.

Queen of Coats

Don’t you love this coat?
I sure do.
FAB.
Not that I need any more coats or anything.
I am the QUEEN of coats. It would be embarrassing to tell you how many coats I own. It might be a sickness.
