So excited

I am not a great cook. In fact if you asked the Hubs he would laugh at the thought of me cooking.
Don't get me wrong I am not a horrid cook either. It is just that I am lazy. I would rather eat out.
I work in the after noon so if I want to eat at a decent hour I have to either cook ahead or the hubs has to cook.
BUT today I decided to cook ahead. I found this blog through another blog.

Gabi at Honest Fare has been tempting me with her fresh easy recipes, recently she posted on making baby food, something I have been dying to try and while I was looking at that post I saw this one for vegetarian chili.

I am a sucker for vegetarian chili. I love it ever since my friend made me some and my husband (then boyfriend) actually liked it. (He is very picky about food that doesn't have meat). SO today I finally made it! It was easy peasy and super yummy. The only problem I had was guessing how much vegetables yield when chopped (we over bought). Hopefully this means I just get to make more.

Another Thing I like


I totally dig this rocker by Urban Outfitters.

Things I like




This bed by Ikea the Vanvik, I totally like but alas it only comes in Queen and Full. Someone wanna figure out how to make a knock-off?

Feeling Strangely

I know that the title really is not proper English..
Anyway loooong blogging hiatus because I don't really have that much to say nor does this have an actual direction or topic.
Joy though because today as I sit at work my family is supposedly assembling the home-made crib my dad made for Little Man!!!!!!
I may actually have to finish our nursery now.
Little Man has been bed-sharing with us since he out grew his co-sleeper bassinet and we bought a king size bed. This is not as horrible as some say it is. I actually get quite a bit of sleep. I don't have to get up in the middle of the night for feedings unless I want to.
Downside is that I am a pretty flexible parent so my child sleeps from 10 p.m. at night until 9 a.m. usually. Also he has become an adorable monster who wants to be rocked by daddy only for naps.
I am fretful.
I do not want to sleep train even though everyone loves sleep training. I also have mixed feelings about letting LM sleep in another room.
So as excited as I am about this beautiful heirloom made Dad has been working on for almost a year I am a bit apprehensive.

In other news I feel strange because I have been super tired (not because my child sleeps with me! I have been getting 9 hours a night of sleep) and super hungry! I am not pregnant though! Weird.
