Sadly, Kevin is gone already (yes, he left 2 days after our wedding :[ sniff, sniff) but, it gives me lots of MUCH needed time to study. Have I mentioned that I'm taking 18 hours this semester?!? Yeah, it's a lot - plus my two jobs and planning the wedding, it added up to a whole lot more than I thought it would. Hence the reason for my blogging absence. Lol! :-) And, next week I have midterms - yikes! Which means, I'm in full study mode. The barista girls at my local Starbucks know me by name, sad I know. Starbucks really is the best place to study. :) But, when I got off work today I just wanted to come home, change into "comfy" clothes, eat a fun fall snack and curl up with a good book....like The Foundations of Maternal - Newborn Nursing. (Just in case you were wondering my opinion on this subject, the female body is without a doubt God's most Amazing creation!)
So, I put my plan into action - I looked up a carmel popcorn recipe, put water on for my spiced apple tea and decided to write a couple *quick* posts.
Carmel Popcorn:
Ingredients:
3/4 C Sugar
3/4 C Brown Sugar
1/2 C White Karo Syrup
1/4 C Water
1/8 tsp Cream of Tartar
1 C Margarine
Directions:
Boil about 10 minutes or just barely to soft ball stage
Remove from heat then add:
1 t Soda
1 t Vanilla
Pour over 2 batches of popped corn, mix well and enjoy!

xHOW and WHEN do you find so much time to do so much. I admire you so much sweetie. I can barely get my laundry done and you are seriously like super woman. Please give me some of your tips. I NEED THEM! HELP.
Seriously can you help me with organization. I need to start planning things better. Like family time. I need to set aside a time to devote all my attention to family.
I love your posts.
Congratulations on the wedding! I couldn't remember exactly when the big day was. That explains why you haven't posted in a while. I've been checking though.
I've never made carmel popcorn. It sounds easy enough and looks delicious.
I'm so happy for you and so glad you had the wedding of your dreams.
That's how we all felt at Kristen's....so blessed and so much love. God is good, huh?
Talk to you soon.
Love,
Valerie
That popcorn looks awesome!! I didn't even see you last post about the b-day bash...tell the hubby happy late b-day.
Glad you've been able to get some study time in. I'll say a little prayer for you during mid-term times! I'm so proud of you for doing the nursing thing - it takes a special/ dedicated person! :)
Congrats on the wedding!!! I can't wait to see pics and hear the details! Thanks for "following" me. :-)
