There is no black-and-white situation.

It's all part of life.

Highs, lows, middles.

High Hopes

I'm still employed

*not fired on the spot upon putting in my notice*

Things are looking up!

“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.”

Today is a big day for me

I'm putting in my

*Two weeks notice*

(I've been at the same job for 7 years)

In a perfect world

~my boss would say~

Congratulations!

but I don't know how

anyone will react

*it could go a lot of ways*

Red, White & Blue Dessert

Okay... Okay...

So technically 

blackberries are not blue

(purple maybe?)

~blueberries would work too~

here is the 5 minute

(construction time)

recipe for 

Graham Cracker Icebox Cake

(crazy easy)

All you need is:

Graham Crackers

Whipped Cream

Berries (your choice)

and

Chocolate sauce (optional)

I used strawberries & blackberries

it would be very tasty

with  any fruit of your choice

the trick to Icebox cakes is layering

*all you have to do is *

1. layer of crackers

2. layer of whipped cream

3. layer of fruit

4. another layer of cream

5. repeat until satisfied

(or out of fruit)

6. refrigerate for atleast 2 hours

so that the crackers 

soak up

the whipped cream

7. top with chocolate sauce

*i made mine from scratch*

~but really there are no rules here~

~Icebox cakes rank pretty high~

in our house for dessert

*no oven required*

Ice cream is happiness condensed. ~Jessi Lane Adams

my mind is whirling

weekend in NYC this fall
