This is such a wonderful summer. We've had so much fun traveling to Atlanta and Hilton Head, celebrating
our first anniversary (!), trips to the ranch, and spending time with friends and family. There are about 600 pictures I still have to upload... eek.
I'm having an on again-off again relationship with Diet Coke. Many of you already know this. Let's just say, it's a daily struggle. I'm pretty sure that this is exactly how drug addicts feel.
Pat and I went to see
Away We Go the other night at the Angelika in Mockingbird Station. The Angelika plays indie movies and documentaries and such. Basically the movies that probably wouldn't generate hardly any revenue in a major movie theater. My favorite quote from the movie? When asked why she hates strollers, Maggie Gyllenhal's character replies, "I LOVE my children. Why would I want to PUSH them away from me??"
Last night I went to the container store and bought all kinds of organizing things. That place is like the promised land. I walk in and wander around and drool over everything and convince myself that I DO need a
caterpillar wall rack and
take-out cartons. Sigh. I settled for a new silverware organizer, magnets, earring organizer, and 5 plastic containers to house cleaning supplies, bath stuffs, and things like that. I swear if I could I would organize everything in this apartment in baskets. If baskets didn't cost like
24.99 a piece.
We're heading to the ranch again this weekend for 4th of July weekend. Know what I think of when I think 4th of July? Well, I guess the first thing I think of is fireworks but the SECOND thing I think of is the flag cake my mom used to make every year. Pound cake layered with cool whip, blueberries, and strawberries. This might be the most popular holiday cake of all time. July 4th isn't July 4th without that cake. Or watermelon.
Watermelon might be my favorite food right now. By the way.
Let's see how long it takes for me to write again...
