Inspired by EG’s dinner from last Sunday, the housemates and I made chicken nuggets and waffles for our dinner yesterday. What are Friday nights for, right? It was quite tasty, especially since the chicken nuggets were shaped like dinosaurs. Dinosaur chicken nuggets make everything taste better, did you know that they spark childhood joy in … More Food and fun
This weekend has been non-stop for me! Saturday morning started with homemade scones, clotted cream, and homemade jam, cause, you know, it’s what you gotta do. A fancy grocery store near my work carries clotted cream so I picked it up Friday afternoon as a surprise to Gene. He always likes the idea of having … More Weekend happenings

Yesterday afternoon Sidney and I went to Nick’s Garden Center, our local plant nursery, and bought some flowers for the yard! We got a variety of flowers including violas (pansies), marigolds, and a bit more moss. We’ll probably go back to get more flowers as well as a bush for the front side yard. I am hoping … More Flowers, food, and D&D
Although the original plan for the weekend was to visit my parents, plans changed Friday evening when, less than halfway there, I decided to turn around and go back home. I was having a stressful time driving down the highway while heavy snow fell towards my car. The roads were bad and I was getting … More D&D & weekend
Today I listened to some of our D&D sessions. I got one done and listened to 30 minutes of another. Although it does take time, I like going back and listening to our sessions. We say some funny things and take some creative actions. I think playing Dungeons and Dragons helps boost creativity. It’s always … More D&D, hanging pictures, and light
