Last day of September

It is the last day of September, so it is time for the month wrap up!

Person of the month: Granny. Stephen's granny has been amazing to us this month. She has bought Stephen a beautiful new suit to interview in and a new computer when his decided to die two days ago. I honestly will never understand how one person can be so giving and so amazing.

Moment of the month: The other morning was pretty amazing. I will leave it at that.

Outing of the month: Going to The Lemon Wedge with Lauren during First Friday in Bryan. It was awesome discovering a new restaurant and catching up with her.

Book of the month: Million Little Mistakes. It's a fun guilty pleasure. And choose your own adventure books remind me of being a kid. I even still cheat on them!

Movie of the month: Percy Jackson and he Lightning Thief was a pretty awesome movie. We rented it from Netflix. It is the first movie in a long time that we both dropped everything we were doing to watch it. That is a very hard thing for us to do at home when our computers are right next to us!

Accomplishment of the month: Turning 26! Does that count? I think it does. And doing yoga for the sixth day in a row! It may continue, because I am really enjoying yoga time in the morning.

Restaurant meal of the month: I ate at the Lemon Wedge twice and loved it both times! I loved the brie, canadian bacon, and asparagus sandwich I got.

Beer of the month: Magic Hat is now one of my favorite breweries. I love ttheir Hi PA. It is pretty amazing, as is their Hex and their #9.

Cooked meal and dessert of the month: Deep dish cheeseburger pizza and Vanilla Bean Sugar Cookies. That was an easy one this month!




Today Stephen had one interview and I had two. That is 3 interviews between us! In my opinion, I think they went well. But when everyone in the universe from our department is competeing for the same position, the chances are pretty slim. All I can do is remain poised and be myself. I kinda enjoy interviews, but they can be quite draining.


I made some chocolate chip cookies from my new Dorie cookbook.


They are amazing!


And I have begun baking for Saurday's art and baked goods table. I am slightly exhausted!

See you tomorrow!

  1. I was surprised your birthday cake wasn't the dessert of the month, although I don't think you could go wrong with any of them.

    Interviews are weird, as it's really hard to get a read on someone from such a formal setting in such a short amount of time. However, you probably rocked it, so give yourself some credit. Your month looks great and I wish I could come to Saturday's fair--it sounds so fun!

  2. I hope your interviews went well! I was thinking of you today and sending you lots of love and positivity! x)

    Those choc. chip cookies look yum! I'm planning on doing some baking tomorrow too for church on Sunday. I think Saturday's morphing in baking day for me. Lol.

    Ooh and I hope October unfolds into a month as wonderful, or even more so, than September!

    XOXO
