An Eventful Weekend

Where do I begin?  Well I guess with the good stuff.  I got a part-time job!  I'll be working a chain craft store up here.  Kind of excited, kind of nervous.  

On Friday night I went to my sister's house for girl's night.  We each made a dish.  Mine was Savory Pears with Gorgonzola cheese and cranberries.  Too bad this was a little last minute and the pears weren't exactly ripe.  No one really ate mine :(  But the other food was really delicious!  I'll get 'em next time...BUUUT I made a yummy cocktail to make up for it!

All you need is Apple Cider and Captain Morgan Spiced Rum!  The recipe said to warm it and rim the glass with cinnamon and sugar, and it was called a Cinnamon Toast.  But we drank it cold without the rimmed glass and thought it tasted like caramel apples!  So perfect for this time of year!!!  (well if it weren't still so humid in NJ).

That same night I got a call from my husband...this is the bad...he was on his way to the ER.  He broke his hand.  The hand that brings home his pay check every week.  This is so not good.  Good thing I got that job, right?!  Maybe not...they scheduled him for surgery for my first day.  Not sure how my new boss is going to feel about that when I call to tell her this morning....

Then we had to go to a wedding the following day.  He was happy to get out of wearing his whole suit.

I just hope my new job will be understanding when I call them today, I'm kind of nervous about that.  They seem to already be giving me a hard time about when they want to train me and I compromised my first day for them.  But if they think for one second that I'm not going to be there with my husband, they have another thing coming.

Thinking happy thoughts.

Where in the World?

Have I been?!!  Ugh, It's been a long summer.  But to keep it short, we have been working on our condo from the water leak we had way back in February of this year.  It took many phone calls to our Condo Association to get them to come out to clean up the mold in our attic...which, by the way, just kept on spreading!  

JULY is when they finally made it here.  But now it's done and our new carpets were installed on Friday!  

I will post pictures as soon as our furniture is back where it's supposed to be so you can get the full affect.

In the meantime, I don't know what direction this blog will go in.  I think I will just try to keep posts short.  I'm not sure how many people actually read this anyway.  I tend to like to post recipes and pictures anyway...I know how short my attention span is lately, I'm sure most of you are the same way, lol.

If you are interested in a FAB give a way, my favorite Bridezilla, Krystal from Krystal's Kitsch has hit 600 posts and 600 followers and is being SUPER generous!!  Do yourself a favor and GO FOLLOW HER, giver her some love already and you might just get to choose the prize that best suites you!  Since my blog is so random, I may be likely to go for something like:

Photo Tales Tuesday!

Wow!  It's been FOREVER since I've posted ANYTHING here at Blogger.  So I'll try to get back into it by linking up at Laugh Until You Cry!

Matt and I have been super busy this whole summer and really haven't gotten to do anything other than house work these last few months.  So on Saturday, we hit up the annual Classic Car show for a fun date!  Saw some amazing cars and got to dream about having our cars entered in the show (Matt owns a 1972 Chevy Chevelle and ONE DAY I will have my 1969 Chevy Camaro...one day).

...and a few more because they are just that cool...

Go link up at Photo Tales Tuesday!!
