I spent a good portion of my afternoon at the Heb's house. My two best friends, Sam and Emily, just got back from a week in Germany. It was fun to listen to Sam's stories and eat German chocolates while I listened.
This is baby Collin. I think that he is the first baby I have every really bonded with. He's cool with me putting stickers on his forehead and he doesn't cry when I try to hold him. I think i'm officially past my anti-baby fetish.
Sam and I spent a good 20 minutes bookmarking every other page of the Cupcake cookbook Taylor got me for Christmas. Today, after an hour of mixing and my total flop with the frosting, we had 12 lovely, delicious Banana Carmel cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. This is easily in my top 5 favorite desserts now because of its zesty flavor and rich topping. This winter break i've baked a lot. I think i'm slowly beginning to realize all of the flavor benefits you get when you cook from scratch. I'm definitely making these again soon.
The Pilots won big tonight and I was glad I got to see it. I had lots of fun talking with Erin about different players and hearing aids, as well as listening to my grandma talk about Taylor's points being scored for her.
After a long meal at BDubs with the Kolbus family, Taylor and I went back to Bethel where I learned how to play Eucher thanks to Tay and his teammates.
Lastly, I came home to this little glittery surprise for Snowball:
I wish everyday were as fulfilling as today. I love a day when I get to try new things, especially like today when they end up being a great little surprise.
"Life begins at the end of your comfort zone."
Have a happy Wednesday!
