Show and Tell: How To Win My Heart

Ah, yes. It’s that time again…show and tell with Andrea!

So you wanna know how to win my heart, huh? To be honest, I kind of feel like i’m filling out a match.com profile. I can just see my friends making fun of me now, haha! But in the name of #blogworld we’re doing it.

First, you might want to wake me up with some coffee. For you and for me.

And you see that B in the background of this picture? With the red and the blue? Yeah, to win my heart we will probably take a trip to Fenway.

Or if you’re more of a football person, I don’t discriminate. We can go watch another sport besides baseball. As long as we can see the Sox play at some point 😉

If you’ve won my heart, we’re probably going to the gym together.

And on our first date we most likely got frozen margs with a side of chips and salsa because #indulgences

To win my heart, you’ve got to be okay with my scented candle obsession.

AND YOU HAVE TO BUY ME A PUPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know where you can get one too!

We’ll probably spend a lot of time watching some of my favorite shows…we can watch yours too. I can be fair.

You’ll have to be okay with a gluten free/lactose free cake on my birthday.

And my constant obsession with trying new recipes/foods even when they go wrong.

You’ll have to accept me on my days when I look this good…because more often than not this is how you’ll see me 😉

You’ll have to get along with my family. And they will have to like you. I know some people don’t care if their family gets along with their significant other…but there is no way. Not for me.

To win my heart, you’ll have to want this many kids. Ha kidding. But seriously my significant other will want kids because I know that’s where a lot of my joy in life will come from…raising a family.

But most importantly…if you’ve won my heart…it’s because God has your heart first.

I mean, is that so much to ask for?? 😉 Really though, I could care less about chocolate and flowers and jewelry…those don’t mean anything to me. I took the 5 love languages test and I got quality time BOTH times. And now as i’m done writing this post and looking back i’m seeing a lot of what I said was quality time related. So there ya have it…now i’m just hoping I haven’t scared off any potential contenders at this point. Haha!

Have a great Tuesday!

Everyday Mollay: A Day in The Life

The end of the month means another Everyday Mollay! This is going to be a farm edition because i’m at my grandpa’s this week, wahoo!

I couldn’t sleep for some reason so I woke up and the clock said 3:30. I tried going back to sleep, but I couldn’t so I got out of bed. And it was

FOUR THIRTY. And surprisingly I wasn’t that tired. But I was hungry…so I had a bowl of cereal.

And then I couldn’t fall asleep again so I read from about 4:30-6.

I guess while I was reading I finally was able to fall asleep because the next time I woke up it was about 10, so of course I had to have a cup of coffee.

After coffee I decided it was time to go over and play with some puppies at my Aunt and Uncle’s dog farm. I had some help from puppy with the blog that morning.

We went back to grandpa’s for dinner. Garlic bread, peas, rice, and swiss chicken. “Dinner” on the farm is the best.

After dinner mom and I spent the early afternoon baking fresh pies. This was the beginnings of a peach pie.

Ry was begging mom to let him drive on the highway. So, he did. Full speed ahead! Kidding, he was pretty good.

 

Everywhere we turn is a cousin in my grandpa’s small town. So, we went to one of our cousins houses to take whatever we wanted from his garden.

We got back, and almost half the peach pie was eaten. Grrrraaanndpaaaaa…..?

And then, naturally, before supper we had to go play with more puppies.

I must have forgotten our supper picture, because I couldn’t find one. Or maybe we just snacked. Time gets away from us out here on the farm. We sat around and talked for a little bit after supper and went to bed pretty early. I read more of my book and fell asleep quickly. As soon as I finish this book I will give you my review 🙂

So that’s it, just your average day on the farm. Puppies, relaxing, and the outdoors. It goes by quickly, but it was fun!

Friday Favorites!

It’s time for another Friday Favorites with Erika, Narci, and Andrea. I’ve enjoyed these past two weeks of Friday Favorites!

Favorite #1: My New Cookbook

This came in the mail when I got home from vacation, and being the foodie I am I spent part of the weekend going through the recipes and figuring out which ones I want to make. You can see my stickies in there already. The recipes from my monthly goals post yesterday are definitely coming from this book. Delicious gluten-free, dairy-free, grain-free Paleo cooking.

For those of you participating in this diet, purchase this book for yourself. I found you Against All Grain for less than $20. That’s pretty awesome and so worth it!

Favorite #2: The ability to work out

 

Often times I get so caught up in life I forget to just be thankful for the ability to work out. Having two legs that work, money to buy running shoes, and a beautiful neighborhood to run in are things I take for granted. It’s time I thank Jesus for giving me these simple things in life that bring me joy.

Favorite #3: A mom to bake with

This week my mom and I made a fresh peach pie out of scratch. Everyone came to my grandpa’s for the weekend. We found a local stand with peaches so we bought a box and made some pie. It was gone within the day. It was really suppose to be my pie but I needed some help with it 🙂

Favorite #4: Puppy

How sweet is this face????? This is ONE of the puppies from my Aunt and Uncle’s dog farm. Check it out here. These are the sweetest dogs and oh so much fun to play with.

That’s it for this week! Happy Weekend!!
