  3. Going through and editing all the New Orleans trip photos to make the photobook.
  4. Hanging up a bunch of frames in the bedroom and in the hallway!! It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, particularly once I got into the swing of things. Only stopped because I ran out of nails.
  5. Dan making tomato-spinach-sausage risotto for dinner.
  6. Vacuuming and cleaning up the apartment, which is good since I'm going to be gone the next few weekends and may not have time to clean again for awhile.

4/24/12

  1. A morning meeting getting canceled so got an extra half hour break between other meetings.
  2. Not eating much for lunch since I didn't feel that hungry and being right about that since I didn't become starving in the afternoon or anything.

4/23/12

  1. Wearing my new J.Crew chambray button-down shirt that actually fits with black skinny jeans and brown boots over those jeans. A classic outfit for many and yet took a long time to find items that would fit me for that style.
  2. Delicious flatbreads with ramps at lunch and this weird-sounding pea cream sauce tasting amazing spread over broccoli.
  3. Lots of laughing in our weekly core meeting, some of the meetings end up like that for whatever reason.
  4. Leftover turkey burgers with sun-dried tomato aioli on a bed of spinach and a sliced up bell pepper. I'm just going to keep making this meal over and over again until I get tired of it, I think.
  5. Finishing watching Once Upon a Time while doing a bit more hand-sewing.
  6. Going to bed relatively early to catch up on sleep.
