02/20/2012: Nutella French Toast

Andy is off work for Presidents' Day today. It's been nice having a three day weekend with the whole family. Today we are just spending the day cleaning up the house and organizing and just enjoying each other's company. Since we weren't in a rush this morning we decided on a more involved meal: Nutella French Toast. I saw a pic/recipe for this on Pinterest but never actually read the recipe. I figured we could figure this one out on our own. It was easy AND really good. Who doesn't love Nutella?



Here's what we did-
Mix up some eggs with cinnamon and brown sugar
Soak the bread in the eggs
Slap it on the griddle until cooked
Layer french toast with a little Nutella and walnuts
Top with cinnamon, a dash of brown sugar and just a teeny bit of maple syrup
Serve with a side of fruit and there you have a great breakfast for a nice day off

Augie even helped...Today he's 5 weeks old!

Busy Weekend

I haven't posted anything since Saturday morning. The weekend was a blur. Saturday was our second baby shower. This one was hosted by my family for my family and some friends. I took a whopping 2 pictures...of Andy playing a game...My sister is sending me some pics and hopefully I'll have some from my Mom too...then I will post about the shower. In a nutshell it was wonderful. And I was completely exhausted after it was over. Sunday proved to be another exhausting day as my business, Curious Whatnots , had a booth at a local holiday market. Here are a few pics of the the set up for the day. We had a weird table that could be accessed from both sides so we had stuffs everywhere! I have two more shows scheduled right now, as I didn't want to overbook before the little guy arrives. Here's the upcoming schedule: Rockford Charity Market IV -Saturday, November 19th 10a-6p @ St. Rita's Wahl Hall (a portion of vendor sales will go to a charity of the

Augie's Birth Story

So it's taken me a while to sit down and write about this. We've been adjusting to lots of new daily adventures. And every minute of it has been a blast. I can say I have no complaints! Life as new parents is great and I can only see it getting better. We're adjusting to our different sleep schedule which is really helping our mental health...haha. Andy heads  back to work on Monday next week and I can say I really will miss all of the help that he has provided Augie and I over the past three weeks. He's an amazing husband and father. So here it goes- Sunday, the 15th, we slept in, ate left over pizza for lunch, celebrated birthdays at Andy's Grandma Jeanette's...I ate something like three different kinds of cake and ice cream (and I think I went back for a second round of sweets), hung out at my parents for a bit, then came home and ate macaroni and cheese, from a box. Not our usual day of fairly healthy eating, but that's what we had. After dinner
