September in a Nutshell

Those of you who have been following my blog might be wondering why this post is not a Bake 52 recipe, since that's pretty much all I've been posting lately. Well, this week Jenn chose eclairs as the recipe. I opted to use one of my three "passes" this week because the only thing I like about eclairs are the chocolate glaze. The amount of work that goes into them just didn't seem worth it to me. However, if you do like eclairs, and want to see the recipe anyway, head over to Jenn's Kitchen!

Life hasn't been exciting enough to warrant blog posts recently, but I figured I was overdue for a blurb about what we're up to these days.

• Watching 2 kids after school 3 days a week.
• Sewing group is back up and running after the summer break.
• Joining a gym to try getting fit again.
• Splits with the sister missionaries & teaching Sunday School/Relief Society lessons.

Not sure what my face is doing, but I was getting started on anchoring the wardrobes to the wall.
