Recipe Blog

I confess. I have a recipe blog. I've had it for a while, but I've never told anyone about it. I guess the time has come for me to share. There's not much on it yet, but my goal is to add more recipes while my husband watches BYU football games. Which happen to happen every Saturday so I should do well. Hopefully. :)

My New Motto:

Believe in God; believe that he is, and that he created all things, both in heaven and in earth; believe that he has all wisdom, and all power, both in heaven and in earth; believe that man doth not comprehend all the things which the Lord can comprehend.
Mosiah 4:9

Freeway Madness

While I'm in the mood for posting, I thought I'd vent my frustrations on how RIDICULOUS I-15 currently is. Over the past two weeks there have been accidents at least every other day. In case you're not familiar with current I-15 status, they have decided it would be a brilliant idea to redo everything. Literally, everything. So all ramps are under construction and all lanes are under construction to make a 4 lane freeway from Spanish Fork to Lehi. Of course, I drive that Spanish Fork to Lehi (well, Orem) route EVERY day (well, work week days). The lanes have all been tightened to a bare minimum and there is no shoulder. This has resulted in accidents all the time. Especially in Orem. This week there was even a FATALITY. So am I worried about my car and my husband, and my LIFE?! You bet I am! This has been a struggle living in Salem. An average commute with little slowage will be about 45 mins. Usually it takes about an hour. A couple Fridays ago, it took me an HOUR AND A HALF to get from 800 N OREM to CENTER STREET PROVO. In a stick shift. Not fun. I was so annoyed. Therefore, I got off the freeway at Center Street and had Dustin meet me at the mall for date night. All I can say is... if there is no improvement by the time snow starts falling, I don't think I am willing to risk my life like that and will move back to Orem. One little slip on any kind of ice will send all three tight lanes into a complete stop. And you know those trucks that always think they defy the laws of ice? I don't think they're going to let up at all this winter. So I am TERRIFIED of that commute. I might start working 10-7 or something just to avoid the main traffic hours. It can be such a nightmare. I really really really hope that they make some improvements and get some lanes more space by the time the snow falls! Is that too much to ask for?!?!

Fall Fever

Labor Day marks the end of summer and the beginning of fall. Well I know that Spring Fever exists, but I am super excited for Fall as well. Spring and Fall are my favorites and I have fever for either one. Since fall is soon to be here, I guess I'll stick with Fall Fever.
I just love fall! Football (1st BYU game of the season is currently in progress!), pretty leaves, cooler temperatures, corn mazes, heck, even Halloween! Summer is great and all, but I just love the feeling of fall.
Dustin is now back in school for his SENIOR year at UVU. I am pretty excited about that! Only 8 more months and graduation will be here! Of course, there's another 4 years after that, but still, we're on the way to completion of that college life. The goal of the month is to have our applications for grad school in. The plan for after UVU is to go to Portland's Western States Chiropractic College. Here Dustin will be able to study chiropractics and also get a masters in Sports and Exercise Science. I'm still super hopeful for a house and have been checking out a lot of real estate recently in the Vancouver WA area. I think we might apply to one or two other schools just in case, but we're kinda really counting on WSCC to work out.
Wish us luck!

Loves,
