Crust & Crumbs – See, I go and start a new feature and then skip a week. This is why I wanted a noncommittal post. 🙂
1. As you read this, I’m on my way to Phoenix for Bloggy Boot Camp. I’m super excited – and nervous. My friend Trish from Mom on Timeout is going too. And I get to meet Wendy, Julie, Lynne, and Aubrey in person. Uh…I hope ya’ll like me! I’m hoping to learn a lot this weekend and don’t worry, I’ll share a bunch with all of you!
2. I wanted to feel grown up at BBCPHX, so I went to Staples. Their Martha Stewart line makes me want to completely start over with my organizational systems. I want one of everything!
3. I really, really wish I had more of this Nutella Strawberry Tart. Or maybe I don’t?
Pssst….that post also includes a giveaway for some Kizmos kitchen tools! Go enter and get happy in the kitchen!
4. In an effort to rid myself of the guilt I’m feeling for leaving this weekend, Jordan and I went on a surprise mommy-daughter date. Starbucks and Pedis. She actually said thank you.
5. Okay, Alyssa married two of my favorite things: Banana Bread and Funfetti. I’m in looooove.
6. Who wants a Milky Way?
7. Jordan is doing a Flat Stanley unit in her class. She had to make and mail a Flat Jordan to a family member. I can’t wait to see what happens to Flat Jordan during her travels.
8. Oh mer gerd, I must try these Sausage Egg Rolls. *Salivating*
9. I may not be a huge basketball fan, but I love Reese’s, especially when it’s shaped like a basketball.
10. We bought a new couch.
It’s the first piece of “real” furniture I own. It even has a new couch smell. I don’t know what I’m going to do when (1) the cat barfs on it (2) the dog drools on it or (3) the kid spills on it. It’s the Tate Sofa from ZGallerie, and it didn’t come with stain protection. Have you ever done your own stain protection? Or should I just call a carpet guy?
11. Cinco de Mayo is coming up, what should I make?
Have a great weekend everyone! If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram, you’ll be able to see my traveling exploits. 🙂

The Nutella Strawberry Tart looks devine! I could probably eat that all in one sitting…lol! Have fun at the blog camp!!!
Thanks Holly! It was awesome!
I love the couch! I’m dying for a new one – we just have hand-me-downs from our parents and they’re…..grungy to say the least. The mommy-daughter date looked so fun, I loved doing that kind of stuff with my growing up and can’t wait to have a daughter of my own to do that with too 🙂 Have a great trip!
Thanks Brittany! It’s our first “real” piece of furniture. 🙂
That couch looks so comfy!! Z-Gallery is the best! Have fun this weekend, everyone is going to LOVE you!
Aw, thanks Tieghan!
DIY stain protection is pretty easy and pretty painless. You can get stuff that you more or less spray on the couch and it works pretty well. If you normally do some heavy soiling (like spilling tomato soup or sitting around in muddy pants), then you might want to leave it to the professionals. DIY is best for average cat barf, dog drool, milk dribbles.
Sweet! Thanks Kelly!
I love Z Gallerie..sooo much. Congrats on your new couch. You must be so stoked! I’ve never DIY stain protection, I always pay to let them do it, so can’t help there.
Have fun at blog camp!!!!
Thanks Averie!
