lately

Back in May, my grandfather passed away. He is truly one of the sweetest individuals, and I miss him.

Also in May, this little guy arrived with a FULL HEAD OF HAIR. Look at him! He's another adorable nephew, so kudos to my brother and his wife. No pressure on me to have a cute kid, of course.


Not too long ago spring term finished up, which - Halayloo! Now I can have somewhat of a break until fall arrives.

I happen to have put on roughly 15 pounds and am about six months or so along. My tummy feels stretched taut, and I can't believe that I'm actually supposed to get bigger. Sweet goodness.

Just yesterday I made a quiche with tuna, spinach, and parmesan, which made my mom very skeptical. She suggested I freeze a slice for her when she comes in July. In my defense, I was inspired to put tuna in a quiche from an Achievement Days activity from many moons ago, (or perhaps it was Mutual, but I don't think so,) when we brought some favorite family recipes. Sarah Homewood-by-way-of-Knowles brought in something she called "Tuna Pie" and I loved it.
