Happy Friday!
It’s been a long time since I’ve done a fun Gerunds & Lately List– so here it is!
Cooking: Soups. They are such a great way to get extra veggies in us all– and since we find ourselves in a real Disney Dessert Detox (is that a thing? It feels like a thing. I wouldn’t have it any other way, but wow– bring on the vegetables!) I scoped this week on a favorite slow-cooker chicken stock and the end result was delicious. Yesterday I tried this Cold-Fighting Couscous Chicken Soup from Pinterest and even with new flavors like lemongrass and ginger, the girls loved it, (so did we!) Definitely a fun spin on chicken soup.
Drinking: Black Iced Coffee! Completely refreshing– who knew?
Reading: I just finished Longing for Paris & Treasure Island. This weekend I will finish Bringing Lucy Home and *hopefully* Bird by Bird. Next up: Simply Tuesday and something Fiction. Maybe more Anne of Green Gables? I really want to read a story that I can get wrapped up in and one that ends well and I know Anne with an ‘e’ will never let me down.
Writing Editing: my very own book proposal! I never knew a book proposal could take this long, but it is finally finished and ready to be submitted, so YAY!
Feeling: Slightly Nauseated about aforementioned submission.
Loving: that it is finally FALL and soon it might feel like it too.
Remembering: All the fun we had last week as a family on vacation. I only took a few photos and they were mostly on my phone but my mind is brimming with all the moments. Fun Disney post coming soon!
Listening: to the Carla Bruni station on Pandora and This, This, and This. (That last one is like Springsteen and Swift got married and had a mellow, but still fun baby. How weirdly fun? But don’t worry, it will never be our new Dance party song.)
Wondering: what caused Mario Lopez (AC Slater) to begin doing commercials for toe-nail medicine. And what does Jessie Spano have to say about his lapse in judgement? I bet she isn’t “so excited.” Not even a little bit.
Considering: that the Allume Conference is in less than THREE weeks. You can still get a ticket if you’re interested– AND, they have a pretty sweet deal going on right now if you grab a friend and go together.
Have a great weekend!!
It is KILLING me that I’m not going to Allume. I keep trying to make my schedule work, but it doesn’t seem to want to cooperate. Maybe I’ll still get there for the preconference.
It’s killing me too, Amy! I’ll pray for a last minute miracle. 😉
Any positive word on this Amy? Would love to see you before or during!
I would love to see a Disney post! My husband and I are going next week – me for the first time in five years, him for the first time since middle school! – and I am so excited.
Thanks Lee! It’s actually coming up this week! 🙂 So glad you stopped by and So HAPPY you are visiting Disney soon– so fun!
