Law and Order: SVU is going to be great tonight...

... with Sam.

Last day in Dearborn?

I just woke up and showered on what is potentially my last full day living in Dearborn.  Who would have thought that 13 years ago, it would have come to this?  Obviously, I hope to be back at some point, but it's hard to know when that will happen with how unpredictable my life is right now.  For now, I'll enjoy my last day by having lunch with my mom, taking a neighborhood walk in the sunshine, and enjoying Starbucks happy hour. :)

Romans 8:28

And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.

May 7th - what?!

This weekend is finally the culmination of this whole semester; the weekend where my 113 lovely ladies here at the University of Delaware get initiated.  I'm so excited for them and extremely proud of the love, determination, and loyalty that they have brought to this semester.  It's hard to believe that just a mere two months ago, I was meeting these women for the first time, and now, in two days, I'll be saying goodbye to some really dear friends.  I guess you could just say that Gamma Phi Beta is just neat like that.

More tasty dinners!

So, since Sam has been back, we've been super busy, but have still managed to make some good meals for ourselves.  Here are a few memorable ones:

Tacos! (with chips/guac/chunky salsa and carrot chips)

This was a great meal that hit the spot after a crazy day of work.  I felt a bit like a rabbit eating the carrot chips, but they are Sam's favorite and are quickly becoming a favorite of mine too.

Pork Chop (with balsamic vinegar), asparagus, and brown rice

The pork chops we chose were thin which made them easy to cook.  We baked them for just 10 minutes and they were perfectly done.  With sides like asparagus and brown rice, we couldn't go wrong.

Homemade Pizza! (topped with green peppers and mushrooms)

Couldn't get much better than this on a Friday night in!  The crust was a whole grain bread which was to delicious when topped with fresh veggies and lots of cheese. :)  I'm looking forward to these leftovers tomorrow for lunch!
