Updates

So in April, I headed an hour and a half north to visit my folks and got snowed on. The snow looked like bits of styrofoam or something.  The very next weekend, at my house, it got to over 100 degrees. Weird weather!

I've been trying new recipes and making some up, too!  These are asparagus quiches. Recipe is on my recipe blog Mer-bearsrecipes.blogspot.com



My friend Larissa and I made a new recipe! It was fabulous! Sesame chicken with orange ginger sauce. :)


This is me pretending to sneak candy from my work candy jar.  Okay, so I REALLY DO sneak candy from my candy jar at work!  Hahaha!  I have to keep working out to keep the pounds off.  I should put gross candy like Almond Joys in there so I won't snitch!

Sorry, no trips in the workings.  Maybe I'll plan one soon.  Two more inhabited continents to go!

Europe 2011-2012




So my sister and I went to London and Paris for the week between Christmas and New Year's. It was a blast! We shopped, we toured, we shopped and we snacked! Here are some pictures of our adventures!













Big Ben!























Marble Arch



























Red phone booths were everywhere. I think they are very old.
















We saw Wicked with Rachel Tucker as Elphaba--BEST VOICE EVER!! The CD was icky to listen to after hearing HER defy gravity!!



































On the train to the London Temple
























Notre Dame
























The guy at the pizza place where we went for New Year's Eve handed us a giant pepper grinder for our photos. Is that some kind of tradition? The grinder really worked!





































About 80% of the cereals in Paris had chocolate in them!





A walk along the Seine






































Eiffel Tower with a red baret!
