For The Record 03.14.14

It’s the time of the week again!  Join us on the host’s blog, Little Us, and share what’s going on with you in this week’s:

FOR THE RECORD FRIDAY

 1. Favorite Picture of the Week

View More: http://ariaimages.pass.us/lucas

Another one from L’s One year shoot! I promise to go with something else next week!

2. What TV show are you addicted to right now?

I am so hooked on this season of Pretty Little Liars!  I cannot wait for the new episode on Tuesday – will we finally find out who A is?

3. What Book(s) did you read this week?

Still reading “The Secret Lives of Fortunate Wives” by Sarah Strohmeyer.  I still really like it and would recommend it to a friend, I just can’t seem to find the time to read it.

4. Song you can’t stop listening too

Disney soundtracks.  L and I dance around the kitchen to them all the time.  His favorite is the Rascal Flats version of “Life is a Highway” from Cars.

5. Something funny/awesome that happened was….

We had a super fun play date with Lucas’s friend Bella and her mommy, Renata.  We went to a local play space and just let the kids have at it while we caught up.

6. Something not so awesome that happened was….

Honestly, I can’t think of anything really awful, or even a little awful, that happened this week!

7. Favorite blog post you posted or came across this week….

Shameless self promotion in 3…2…1…I LOVED this spaghetti squash recipe that I posted earlier this week.  As far as something I read that wasn’t from my site, this post really spoke to me.  I often find myself thinking I should have done more with L during the day.  I worry I’m not doing enough or that something is lacking.  But honestly, rocking L to sleep for his naps is enough.  Pulling all the clothes out of the laundry basket and him giggling hysterically is enough.  Having our pots and pan band while I get dinner ready is enough.  Sometimes a little reminder is nice though!

8. The best dinner you had this week was…

Sauce!  I don’t think I’ve made sauce since we moved into the new house.  I could eat sauce with a spoon (and that may or may not happen when I’m making it!) so this was a long overdue meal!  I make pasta to go along with it, just so you don’t think I’m feeding my family straight sauce.

9. Plans for the weekend….

Darrin and I are taking Lucas downtown for the St. Patrick’s Day parade and festival on Saturday.  On Sunday I am going to a breastfeeding photo shoot.  I am insanely excited for that.

10. QOTW (Question of the Week): What’s the #1 Kitchen Appliance you can’t live without?

Does the coffee maker count?  Or is that too obvious?  I use my immersion blender a lot, more than I thought I would actually.  I have a pretty inexpensive one, it was like $35 at Bed Bath and Beyond.  I would LOVE one like this though!

Alright, now it’s your turn.  Click the link below and go “On the Record” for the week.

  1. I’m super disappointed to find out that come Season 4 we still don’t know who A is. It’s getting old IMO. I mean I’ll still watch but COME ON!

    I have an immersion blender, another thrift store find for like 3 bucks but I really want the KitchenAid Speed Immersion Blender, it comes with a couple of different attachments!

    • Are you caught up on Netflix/Prime yet? You’ll have to let me know where you are. I thought I would hate the twist at the end of last season but now I’m really liking it. I’m also really glad I never read the books, because my understanding is they are wildly different!

  2. I love the family photo! What a great shot. We love a good dance party to some Disney music around here! Thank God for Pandora 🙂

    And don’t try to lie…you know you put the sauce on the table, passed out spoons, and let everyone dig in 😉

    • IF only I could get away with just serving sauce! We have a place in my hometown that has “Sauce Sandwiches” on the menu. A toasted hoggie roll, sauce and cheese. I’m pretty sure Darrin with NOT think that was a meal!
