Just some things... and today is Thursday. Thus, Thursday Things!
1. My birthday present from my Business Man came in the mail this week. And I am so excited... they are so comfy. And now I want a pair in every color.
2. This week is Teacher Appreciation Week, if you haven't heard. Yesterday, my Seminar kids and I had a little fun decorating cupcakes for all the teachers in our school. I found this super cute printable cupcake wrapper, and then we frosted the cupcakes and covered them in red sanding sugar. A little piece of a pretzel rod and half a green candy coating disc, and we had 4 dozen miniature apples to give away!
3. Because of Teacher Appreciation Week, our principal bought us all lunch today from Lee's Chicken. Oh my... it had been almost 2 years since the last time I had eaten fried chicken. And it was bangin'. I was a little nervous to go running this afternoon because I usually have a pretty sensitive stomach, but I was juuuust fine. (Note to self: Fried chicken = good pre-run fuel.)
4. I have been to the grocery store 4 times in the last 72 hours. That's normal, right? While there, I noticed this sign by the check-out. Makes me feel like a celebrity! :-P
5. It's getting to be that time of year to make the switch over to iced coffee. Last summer, I was obsessed with Green Mountain French Vanilla iced coffee. Well... move over French Vanilla because Hazelnut has taken your place. So good.
6. Due to above iced coffee addiction, I might have accumulated 4 travel mugs in my classroom at school. Which means none at home. So I kept it classy this morning with a handmade iced coffee tumbler. Crafty, right? I think it's genius.
7. I was planning these awesome Island Jerk Burgers with zesty lime coleslaw for dinner, but didn't realize that ground beef doesn't last 5 days in the fridge. Gross. So, despite being at the grocery store so much this week, we just had turkey sandwiches for dinner. But I did still make the coleslaw! (So gourmet, I know.)
8. My running group is now running HILLS on Friday mornings. I really don't like running hills and don't want to go tomorrow. But I just realized today that my 15km in June is super hilly (like 6 huge steep climbs) so I suppose I will make myself go. At least I'll get to see people??
9. My mom & dad are coming to visit this weekend. And I am SO EXCITED! On Saturday, my mom & I are having a girly day and going shopping down in Columbus. And perhaps Cheesecake Factory. And definitely Trader Joe's. While the boys stay home and work on the house. Bwa haha...
10. Oh... and just 11 more days of school! yea baby!
