Absolutely Nothing

It is kind of shocking when you realize that you had an entire day and nothing happened. Okay, Noah made new concoctions in his smoothies with a little sausage and pepper, then spiced up the lemonade with some salt and pepper, but experimental cooking has become his new norm. Not even the meals were exciting with cheeseburgers and salad for dinner. So Wednesday as the hump day surely should lead to some excitement tomorrow. Right?

Happy Birthday!

Today is my 39th birthday. Honestly, it was a wonderful day. We just stayed home and enjoyed being together. It is very rare to have a full day with just the three of us, but we managed it and it was wonderful. I made crepes for breakfast. The ones with nutella and fruit in them. Yummy! This time even Noah got into the act.




For a long time Noah only ate the fruit. Overall, that is a good thing, but I was pleased he started to eat the crepes too. This birthday marked some great presents and much needed ones too. I needed a new computer. My Dell had hit the end of the road. Everytime you got on the internet the mouse would jump as you would type. Very annoying and Noah managed to remove several keys and which made it difficult to type. So I ventured into the world of Apple and got a Macbook. So far I am very pleased and enjoying using the iPhoto software to create books. Currently, I am making an ABC book for Noah. I should be ready to send it off to get it published in the next several weeks.

I also got a Kindle. This was not a need, but purely a want and one that I love. I have several books on it already and love being able to pop out a book and ready in a pinch. I even got a skin for it that is dark blue and black. The goth chick in me is thrilled. :)

The last present was a complete impulse buy verses the others that I had planned and researched for several months. That is a Healthmaster blender. Basically if you have a Vitamixer or a BlendTec then this is along the same lines. Noah has become enchanted with smoothies which he refers to as "recipes" and I enjoy making them. We drink them almost everyday and I am constantly impressed with all the things you can put in a smoothie and it still tastes fantastic. I love it.

All-in-all a great day and I am a little sad it is ending, but life must resume. :P
