In the News: U.S. Postal Service

The United States Postal Service reported yesterday that they registered a loss of $5.2 billion or $5,200,000,000 for the third quarter. For one single quarter out of four per year. Holy crap! That is a lot of money that they have lost in a matter of three months.

But, they have gorgeous stamps...

Conversion

Making the best out of the worst. Nobody likes going to court, well except for the lawyers and judges and not even them some days. Yesterday morning Glenn and I had to go to court for the accident that we were in. Nothing like being at court at 9AM, but after that funness I had a fabulous day.

1/ Working across the room from this hottie and later laughing at #honeybooboo comments!

2/ Box wine in a mason jar... hipster or redneck!?!

3/ Being crazy in animal print.

4/ Sweet boyfriend on date night.

5/ Huge fish outside of the Atlanta Fish Market.

6/ Some amazing fish dishes (but the best sushi!).

Fungi

The waiter brought my steak to the table that was perfuming goodness into my eight year old nostrils. On the side of my mothers equally as sweet steak was a small bowl filled with what looked to be like little brown buttons covered with butter. I knew my distaste for those white rubbery mushrooms, but these, these brown little buttons peaked my interest. She asked if I would like to try the small treat, so I took a tiny mushroom with a bigger portion of steak obviously on my fork and plunged it into my mouth. I so enjoyed the taste of the mushrooms surrounded by steak, and so began my love affair with fungi.

The original standard white mushrooms. I don't particularly care for pre-sliced variety, well because they are always more expensive and I feel like a two year old could squeeze a mushroom in half so why would I pay more for that. Also, I almost always stay away from the white ones, because I simply love the taste of portobello mushroom more.

Then is the big beautiful bellos. Oh how I love to bake in thee and add thee in replacement of noodles in lasagna. You are my favorite grocery store find. The baby portobello mushrooms make a home in my simple vodka sauce. However my favorite way to consume them is simply to drown them in red wine and butter with some herbs which creates a scrumptious side to well anything.

Wedding Photo Booth Photos

Just because wedding photo booths photos make me laugh...

You get to laugh with/at us...

Forts, BBQ, and Miracles

There is just something about stringing up bed sheets from dressers and door frames, and building a pallet on the floor to curl up in to watch a scary movie. That is indeed what my friday night existed of, with this cute boy that I know :) Oh and of course lots of pizza was consumed.

Awesome Fort Making Supplies! Via 1/2/3

Life is filled with responsibilities, and sometimes it is just super nice just to chill in a fort and forget about the outside world.

Glenn and I also met up with my folks this weekend at a BBQ place in a sleepy town.

He enjoyed that it was spelled right :)

On an even more personal level, I have been thinking a lot about miracles. Like big God miracles. Things that you would only dream about happening becoming real 

because you prayed for them to happen. 

Thinking something is to big for you to concur this week, it probably is by yourself. 

But, not with the help of God. 

Together you can preform miracles.
