Saturday Night


Andrew is in Philadelphia. It's been a long week. He's worked three late nights this week, and I worked and played soccer late one night in between. So we haven't seen much of each other.

After I put Lydia down tonight, I decided I wanted to try making a filled cupcake. And it worked! I had to consult with my mom, and Caitlyn who was down visiting the parents, but it worked!

Great things about tonight:

1. Face-timing with Mom and Caitlyn. I initially called to get an opinion about the piping tube for frosting the cupcake. But I think we talked for an hour! So fun!

2. The cupcakes worked! More filling next time, but they worked!

3. I am always caught off guard by how much I like Hillary Clinton. I had to stop and get a glass of water after my mother asked a question about her, and I expounded on all her virtues as Secretary of State.

4. I had a West Wing Marathon. I'm still in the first season. But it's fun. (Sometimes while reading the news though, I have to reflect on whether or not things on The West Wing are related to what the NYTimes published for that day.)

5. Listened to a lot of country music.

West Wing was the only real surprise of the bunch. I have never actually watched it, but right now I am not going to start.

Hi Ann!

I just saw your comment on my blog about the Lucky Stars Block of the Month Club, and yes, absolutely, you can join at any time! You'll still get all of the blocks from previous months, not to worry.

Thanks for stopping by!
Elizabeth

P.S. - That is one gorgeous cupcake!!
