Another great weekend. Ryan was out of town this weekend, so I was responsible and didn't drink or stay out late. Friday night I just stayed in and played Wii. I am getting good at bowling. Ryan should be worried. I told him he better put directions to Sonic in his GPS, because he'll be headed there very soon to get me a cherry limeade.
Saturday morning I headed out to an apple orchard in DeKalb with my mom and Nancy. We go every year, which is funny because Nancy's allergic to apples. This year we didn't even pick the apples. We just went in the store, bought some apples and baked goods (mmmm, apple donuts), and headed to the outlet mall. Nancy and I got a little out of control. We know we shouldn't shop together, but we just can't help it. My mom said our spending was painful to watch. Oops. We ended the day with cherry limeades at Sonic.
I spent Saturday evening making this:
It was for Ryan. Not sure why... I guess because he helped with my bike, and has gone on and on about how much he loves apple-flavored things. And I wanted to try apple pie again, since the last time I made it, things almost went horribly wrong. This time I did it all on my own, and it wasn't a failure. I'm going to try apple crisp next week.
Sunday morning I went to church, then met Stephanie at the Renegade Craft Fair. Surprisingly, it was not as awesome as I'd hoped. A lot of the stuff looked the same. I didn't buy anything, and I was hoping to get some Christmas shopping done. But Steph and I had fun hanging out, so that was cool. Ryan texted while on the train on the way home from the airport and invited me over to watch football, so that was how I ended my weekend. And yes, it was completely platonic.
And now I'm back to another crazy week. I'm doing "Down By the Bay" with the kindergarteners this week, and it's a huge hit. Although they can't hear rhymes, so the lesson is kind of failing. Oh well. They will hear it eventually. I just need to keep working on phonemic awareness!
