Father / Son

I know this wasn't part of the photo challenge, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to post a cute picture. Baby I and Daddy were on a mission to find a ball that rolled under the end table :-)



In the Mirror

 

I am so excited about this picture, because I didn't even prompt Baby W for it!  I was cleaning up around the bedrooms when I heard him giggling in one of the rooms.  I found him blabbling to himself in the mirror, giggling and giving high fives.  It was so cute!

What you do for fun...

I decided to use my half marathon medals to show what I do for fun.  Depending when you ask me, I might not say I run for fun, as much as it's something healthy I feel like I should do!  Either way, at the end of any half, I feel pretty accomplished and happy with myself.  It's also something fun mrdub, Baby W and I can do together... if this winter ever turns into spring!  I'm signed up to run the Chicago Spring Half Marathon this May and I'm hoping to run a few shorter races to keep in shape this summer.

In your drawer

 

What's in my kitchen drawer?  As you can see, I'm a sucker for small kitchen gadgets.  Actually, I'm a sucker for any kitchen gadget.  I've mentioned before I love to cook, and I love the tools needed to cook!  Some of my favorites in this drawer are... apple corer, lemon zester, crocodile grater and cookie scoop!

Clean...

For my post for CLEAN I am sharing pictures from work :-) I am a surgical Assistant at Wi Surgery Center. The first pic is where we clean our instruments after a surgical case. The second picture is a power washer for instruments. The third picture is where we sterilize the instruments. The temp in the autoclave a gets up just past 274 degrees!!!

What you do for FUN!

 

I have a few hobbies that I still find time for, allbeit not as often as I'd like to... scrapbooking, running, sewing, decorating.  I have one hobby though, that I still get to enjoy nearly every day... cooking!  I much prefer a homemade meal over something frozen, bought or on-the-go (don't get me wrong, that still happens!) and this is something fun that mrdub and I both enjoy.  We have different tastes in recipes-- he likes quick and simple, I don't mind long ingredient lists, he likes seitan, spice and anything peanutty, I like veggies, coconut and curry.  Our differences usually work out well, because it provides a variety of meals and we never get bored with our food!  So... What do I do for fun?  I cook... I bake... and I eat :) 

About You

Or more appropriately, about ME!  I've always hated socks.  My mom still tells me it was impossible to keep socks on me when I was little.  As long as I can remember, I've been happier barefoot, even in winter!  I still would rather be sockless, but I do have a fun collection of socks and my favorite are seasonal socks!  I figure if I have to wear them, they might as well be fun.  Here's a selection of my sock collection...
