Blueberry Lemon Donuts

Well it appears as though I made it through the weekend! How about you?

Sometimes I wonder how I survived all of that partying we did back in university. We would go out two nights in a row and be perfectly fine, if not the next day, then at least the day after that. You'd make your way through another school week and do it all over again the next weekend!

Now, I got out two nights in a row and I'm wiped for the week. Completely useless. Ugh.

After a couple of late nights it was nice to hang out with a few of the girls I work with at our little mini potluck, gossiping and watching The Bachelor wedding. We had some excellent food!

Breakfast Hash

It's Friday!! Yayyy!!

The weather is unseasonably warm today, the snow is melting, and it's Friday. I'm not seeing too many reasons to complain... except for the fact that my pretty, clean white car looks like it's well on its way back to another $12 car wash.

We have a busy weekend ahead of us!

Gluten Free Brownies

As I mentioned in my previous post, my mother was here to visit this past weekend! I was super excited to finally be able to have a guest and not be embarrassed about the state of our house. My mom was the first one to see the main floor in all of its completed glory!

In addition to all of the excitement around showing off our house, it was also my mom's birthday! Don't worry, Mom, I promise not to reveal your true age...

Basement Reveal

As promised, I have returned with pictures of the basement renovation, which we also finished this weekend. A huge thank you to my mom, who came to visit for the weekend and helped to clean the walls, furniture and get everything back in its rightful place. And on her birthday too!!

Here are the before pictures:

Living Room Reveal

Ahh, renovations.

It seems as though our work is never done... but we have had a pretty exciting week! 

We have FINALLY finished the living room upstairs. The room that should have been one of the first ones done turned out to be one of the ones that dragged on and on and on and... well you get the point. To be fair, a lot of it had to do with having 14 foot lengths of trim for the basement stored on the floor. But still.
