I have to keep reminding myself that today is in fact NOT Thursday, but Wednesday. Even though tomorrow is the end of the work week thus making today feel like a Thursday it is not. Damn you Wednesday for dressing up like Thursday like its Halloween and fooling me multiple times today!
Happy July 1st everyone! How on earth is it July already?! Does anyone have a good answer? It seems difficult to process that really that much time has passed since New Years. Seems like it was only two months ago. So I guess that time really does fly when you’re having fun. However, I think Summer didn’t get the memo that it’s July. She seems to be a tad confused on whether or not to show up to this party. One day its 90 and sunny, next day 65 and rainy. Come on Spring / Summer tug-of-war, make up your mind already! I would like to stop running to the basement to get pants that I have already packed away for the next 5 months. mmmmK? Thanks.
I made 36 cupcakes last night. No, not uber delicious black bottom ones like The Mrs. made, but out of a box Funfetti cupcakes with vanilla Funfetti frosting. They are my husbands very favorite cupcakes. I make them for him on special occasions, or when I’m feeling nice. He asked me to make some for his DEP meeting today. He and the other recruiter in his office are going to have a bbq for their DEPers instead of making them run & stuff. Awwww how nice. Mostly its for them to take the time to sit with the DEPers and tell them to be good over the 4th of July weekend, and not do anything stupid. (ie: don’t do drugs, don’t get arrested, don’t hurt yourself, don’t be a moron.) I definitely had one of the cupcakes for breakfast this morning. It was delicious and guilt laden.
You know the saying – you learn something new everyday? Well I learned yesterday that brown eggs & white eggs are pretty much exactly the same. Minus the shell color. I felt like a complete moron that I had to look that up before I went to the grocery store. Maybe its common knowledge and I’m behind the curve on that one. But I’m glad that I know that now. The grocery stores seem to only have organic eggs in the lovely brown color, and I’ve been switching to as much organic foods and I can get. After my breakfast cupcake today, I can confirm – brown eggs and white eggs taste the same. Or, maybe my cage free organic brown eggs are better… because I mentally picture happy little red chickens running around in a meadow eating all the things chickens eat (grass? corn? I dunno?) with the sun high in the sky with a sappy song playing in the background. Run be free little chicken! Let me eat your yummy eggs!
…I need more coffee…
Hi there
I came across your blog from The Mrs.’s site, just wanted to say hello and that I LOVE the buttons you have on your page (Pro Child, Pro Choice, etc.). 
Why thank you Caitlin! I’m glad you enjoy it.
oh you pooper, you should have gone for the black bottoms. WAY better then the funfetti and you can cheat too and use a devils food cake mix for the cupcake part. I’d send some too you but cream cheese in the mail in July? Probably not wise.
And the egg thing. I was surprised too, until we moved to a farm and well, one chicken pooped out two different colored eggs. It takes so little to impress me as I get older.
Im definitely going to make the black bottom ones. The hubbs and his inner 8 year old still LOVES his funfetti cupcakes. lol.
I noticed a HUGE diff when we were raising chickens, between one of the eggs I got from our girls, or the ones from the grocery store. The eggs from the girls had almost orange yolks, and made much better pasta and baked goods. I miss my good eggs…
LAW
ok judging from the randomness and sillyness of your post you do NOT need anymore coffee!
Love you you little tree hugger you !!!
Oh I know. I did NOT need anymore at all! lol
