this has been such a great weekend.

i have already told you all about our
lunch trip to fable tearoom
but when i got home
from there, my girl
texted me to talk
about laptops
and how she needs to get one
for this weekend
so she can do a paper.

now...i know my girl has every
capability and ability to
purchase her own laptop
but under the guise of
"but she may need me"
i quickly offered to "pop" over
and help her.

yes. i know i am pathetic and
will not be able to visit her once a week
for the rest of my life
but whatever...i can admit my issues.
:)

the rest of the weekend has flown by
with naps and editing,
laundry and blog-reading/writing,
emails, doodles and ice cream sandwiches.

Chicken pot pie is a must try! DIRECTIONS 1. Pour carrots, onion, peas and corn into the slow cooker. Chop chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and add to the slow cooker, along with the cream of chicken soup and water. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir. 2.

we made this...well...stirling made it...
i just dictated what should not be in it
(namely NOT peas...and NOT carrots...and that we should
add potatoes)...
and it was SO good.

and i didn't get this on the weekend
but have not had a chance to share it here.
i got to work on the day after leaving Emma in Moncton
and was admittedly dragging my feet a little
and still feeling a bit sad...
and this
absolutely ADORABLE mushroom house
was waiting for me on my desk.

it literally made me laugh out loud
and i may have even clapped my hands a little.

there was no note attached
but i immediately had a "suspect" in mind...
when i asked her about it later
she started to deny
but the grin gave it away.

people can be so damn kind and awesome and talented...

i can't wait to do a photo session with the smurfs!
thank you, Lisa!!

happy weekend! :)
