It's a New Year

Well it's 2014!  A new year, a fresh start, a chance to work on some things.

The first things I will be working on....this blog.

Yep, I said it!  I'm committing to writing one blog post per week, and you can send me hate mail if I don't. All 50 of you who read my blog :)

Since it has been far too long, I'm going to update you all on what has been going on in my life.  And since it is 2014, I'll give you 14 things going on in my life.



1. I got a new job!  I started about a month 1/2 ago and truly love it.  Life has actually been stress-free, a feeling I have not felt in a long time.

2. I am going to be an aunt!  Andrew's brother and sister-in-law are expecting a baby.

3. We are heading to Italy in June for a week. This month I started working on my Italian so I can chat with the locals.  Currently working on food vocab, obviously the most important.

4. Chocolate cake has been a favorite dessert recently.

5. We joined the gym and got rid of cable.

6. Love this tea from Trader Joe's.

7. I love this cookbook I got for christmas.

8. Chocolate spice cookies I recently made. I made them into sandwiches. YUM.

10. Apple chips are a new obsession. The recipe is found in the cookbook mentioned in #7

11. I just got glasses! They look similar to this pair, but mine are from costco so yea....slightly different and bigger.

12. I recently made a duvet cover and curtains.

13. Im obsessed with the movie Frozen, and the soundtrack.  I love it so much, I can't even explain it. I'm currently waiting for the movie to come out in the dollar theater so I can see it again.

14.  Andrew and I head to Asheville this weekend to get away!  I'll put some pictures up once we get back.


Ok, one post per week to come!
