Cooling the Penguins

After watching a particular Cosby show episode, we used to joke around the house when I would stand with my head in the open fridge for a particularly long time that I "was cooling the penguins". This joke has a different punchline but still brought back memories all the same. :)

Happy Birthday!

It was my sister Renee's birthday, so we had a surprise party on Sunday to celebrate.

Get Fit!

I was looking for a quick and easy workout that would be able to fit into my schedule and still give a good result. I found this 10 minutes exercise video, and wow... does it make me sore. So it must be working. :)

 

Swim Meets

My sister is throwing up some great times at her swim meets, and I went with her to Jackson this last weekend. I came away with a nice sunburn and a few video's of her swimming quite well. This one is of her rocking freestyle as the guy next to me says "that's a good picture right there, that's total strength."

Painting in Progress... Love Birds

I'm working on this painting, it's in total progress mode right now. I'm not sure I'll ever really finish it, but it's been fun so far.

Easiest Key Lime Pie Ever!

I love key lime pie, but recipes that are long and difficult have always kept me from making it. A friend passed on this amazing recipe, and I love it! So easy, with so few ingredients that I can make it on a whim.

Key Lime Pie

2 cans of sweetened condensed milk

1/2 cup sour cream

3/4 cup lime juice

Mix together and bake at 350 in graham cracker crust for 8-10 minutes,

or until little bubbles appear on the surface. (they're kinda hard to

see, but they do come). I always have to bake it for the full 10 mins.

The recipe also says that if you have fresh limes, you can add a

tablespoon of grated lime zest to it as well. I didn't, but I'm sure

it'd be good. 

Chill and serve with whip topping.

The Bottom of the Canyon

I was so inspired by this moment in the bottom of the Grand Canyon.
