Busy bees get the what? Not worm, I hope.


Busy, busy, busy lately. Matt's and my anniversary was last week. My birthday is this week. We had some friends over Friday night for homemade fried chicken, homemade fries, homemade rolls, salad, corn on the cob, cherry pie, and ice cream. I've been doing some editing/proofreading for Brent and a friend of his on their personal statements to get into a residency program in NYC. The Aggie football season has started. And Jennifer's, my grandfather's, and Eric's birthdays were all in the past two weeks. So, with cleaning up the apartment for company, learning how to make homemade rolls and chicken, screaming at the TV during football games, and straining my brain trying to not rewrite but fix up doctor-to-be statements, I think I and Matt are ready for a break. But it's all good. It's fall. If only the cooler weather would hurry up and get here. And I got a Professional 600 series KitchenAid stand mixer for my birthday-versary. Very, very awesome when you're learning to make yeast dough and you stink at kneading, and when you're known for giving out vast quantities of pumpkin nut and banana nut bread around the holidays. I'm so in love with the thing that I'm ready to paint it Alton-Brown style. But instead of flames, I'd paint WHOOP! on it.


So we're all doing good, just things are hectic right now. Or maybe I just like to think we're all doing good, because my birthday is in a few days and I have an awesome, magical appliance sitting on my kitchen counter. And it's fall.

Natalee is...
