learn something.

I think it is about time we mix things up a bit! I want to start a new series on my blog! Every Friday I am going to gather together a list of all the things I have learned from the week. I mean, they say you should learn something new every day right? So why not share all the random to major lessons we have learned through out the week with each other?

This can be from silly to serious, and I hope some of you decide to join me!

+ add this fellow to your blog when you link up so your friends can join in....

Just fill out the form below. Put your name and blog title in the "Link Title" area. (If you wanna start doing this regularly, it's probably best to just make a blog label for your Lessons Learned and link THAT up. okee dokee artichokee?)

Lets link it up!

Things I learned this week…

Silly

+ Do not try talking to Trevor about anything semi-serious if he has not had food yet.

+ Don’t think because the sun is shining in Utah that you don’t need gloves or a heavier coat, because the weather here is bi-polar and it will start hailing on you on your walk home.

+ It is great to make friends with people at work, but be careful…. They might just start telling you details about their life you really didn’t want to know about.

+ Take stickers off apples and other fruit items before you eat them, HA!
+ As seen in my last post, DON'T use the hubberz deodorant after you have just shaved your pits.

Serious
+ I may complain a lot right now about school and how crazy my schedule is, but I absolutely love working with kids and what I am doing. I know I am heading in the right career and that couldn't make me happier.
+ I can say NO. I don't have to spread myself so thin all the time. I need me time too.
+ If I put my mind to it, I can do it.

feel the burn.

I have been slacking on my fashion posts. It has been strictly sweat pants and messy buns over here lately. So I thought I would put some up to show myself I sometimes still have time to actually get ready for my day, haha. Anywhoooo I am not really sure where it went... but my deodorant went missing. hmm? The other day I hopped out of the shower and couldn't seem to find where my deodorant went. I was in a hurry so I grabbed some of Trevor's (you know you have all done this before). I noticed he had bought a new brand, it was a pure gel kind, which I hate those kinds of deodorants, but I needed to hurry up and I wasn't about to go out and about without some deodorant on. So I put it on.... all of a sudden my arm pits just started stinging! The burn surprised me and felt very familiar. It felt like it did when I would do a quick shave and then head to the beach with my friends and get into the water.... ouchie! Then it hit me... I had just shaved my arm pits, and then put on this liquid deodorant meant for men... ouch, haha. I told Trevor the story later that day and asked him why he had bought a new deodorant. He replied, "Oh yeah I hate that stuff, I didn't realize it was the gel kind and only bought it because it was on sale." Well at least the hubs is being frugal :) haha Lesson learned, don't put on liquid deodorant after you shave. 

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

Sunday night I got a little sweet tooth. I wanted something yummy, but didn't want to have to make a mess in the kitchen. Then I found this wonderful recipe for flourless peanut butter cookies! How cool is that? Normally I would have my own picture, but I ate these way too fast for picture taking... like I said, I was hungry. What I love about this recipe is you can do so much with it....or not....which is the beauty of its simplicity! I am even interested in using this organic sugar substitute because with the organic peanut butter we used, this has the potential to be one healthy cookie!

What you need:

• 1 cup peanut butter
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 egg

Different things you could add: brown sugar, real peanuts, vanilla extract, cinnamon, gummy bears :) haha the list really does go on and on.... ENJOY!
