My cold Spring Break.

Well, we had to hunt for Easter eggs and baskets in winter coats. 

My daughter and nephew were not phased. 

Searching for candy was too exciting!

Whenever I am on a break, I treat myself to fancy coffee. 

  

I tried to make it more springy by getting the iced, but the gloves and heater, on full blast, brought me back to reality.

We tried to make it more springy by going to the park, but snow at the end of the slide made it difficult to pretend.  

No matter what, weather is just weather........it was great fun to be on break!  We can keep dreaming of some warmer days together.

3rd hour inspired this breakfast.

There was a discussion third hour, waffles or pancakes?  Over my lifetime I have vacillated between pancakes and waffles, but I definitely team waffle at the moment. 

I have wanted a waffle every day since this discussion.  And this weekend the craving was finally satisfied! 

Delicious.  

Answer any or all in the comments.

Toppings?  

My hubby loves chocolate chip pancakes, I am a butter and syrup purist.  

Something you had for breakfast this weekend?  

Valentine's Day

My first memories of Valentine's Day have to do with receiving a package from my grandmother that had things like my favorite candy, some stickers, stuffed animal, red pens, and pencils with heart erasers.......you get the idea.  She did this for me every year for me, and I always looked forward to receiving it.

Because of that, I have never associated this holiday as just a romantic holiday, and that is probably why I like it so much!  I never let it be lame, or depressing, I just let it be a chance to surround myself with people or things I care about.

Top 5 things I will LOVE doing today:


1.  Eating chocolate with every meal.
2.  Being at school with you guys, and my math deptartment co-workers!!
3.  Changing into this mom heart shirt Hope got me, and playing school.  Girl can play lots of hours of school.  She is always the teacher...........and I lose my sticker for not paying attention on a daily basis.
4.  Eating some amazing food for dinner.
5.  Making homemade Valentines with the Mr.
