With a Strawberry on Top!<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So... the other day my Mom called and asked what the site address was for our blog... (cue the crickets). Yep... I couldn't even remember, so I quickly logged into blogger, sent it her direction and next thing you know I get a call. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">"Hi Mal, this is Grandma calling" (love that she says this exact thing every time she calls...on the phone...a phone call) "You should really keep doing that 'thing' your mother showed us. You know we always love hearing what you kids are up to." </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I would never dare say no to my wonderful Grandma and what better reason to gear back up...than... FINALLY (more with that later) finding a house... so here we are again. Anyone out there?!? (poor, silly, busy crickets)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Well at least my Grandma and my husband (because I will launch the computer in his lap and he will have no choice but to ooh and ahh as I prompt him with said oohing and ahhing) will be reading this. Good enough for me :) </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Thought I would start out easy... get you strung out on sugar... maybe you'll come back for more. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Since we could not have managed moving into our new house all on our lonesome, we decided to invite our parents over for dinner to thank them for all their help! Two sets of parents, two cakes, two dinners, who cares... yum! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This Strawberry Angel Food Cake Roll is ridiculously easy, super delicious, perfect for summer... oh and did I mentioned SUPER easy. So without further ado...</span><br />

B had last weekend off (YAY) and since summer is quickly coming to a close we decided to visit one of our favorite </span><a href="http://thebusackers.blogspot.com/2011/07/minneapolis-market.html"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">spots</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There were wonderful blueberries everywhere and since they were pretty budget friendly (3 for only $5) we ended up with a very blue fridge. So I decided to research some recipes and found this one <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/blueberry-crumb-cake-recipe/index.html">here</a>. It turned out really well and it was half gone by sundown (mind you I made it around 4 p.m.).</span><br />

One of my favorite things about reading what other bloggers have to say, is the complex normality of life. It's like a sneak peek into the lives of others. A cure all for the thought that we all have had (don't lie, you are creepy like me) while driving... "where are is that person headed? who are they? what is their life like? are they happy or are they sad? oops I wasn't focused and cut them off... are they angry?"</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So my goal (big step for me... B is usually the one with the typed out 'to do' list of life's hurdles) is to catch up on this blog. Here is a very minimalist sneak peek into my life the past month. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

So maybe you can't call it gardening per say, but it is green, it does grow, requires water & sunlight (thats another topic). </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I had to share. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As a young women, now married and out on her own, budgeting clothing has been tricky (and not always fun). So in order to continue saving and to alleviate any "you bought MORE clothes" discussions, I have begun looking for clothes in the overwhelming "clearance" section.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As I ventured to the back corner of Target, I quickly dove into the impending racks off half hung up clothing. This is what I found...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A cute wrap style black cotton dress...nothing overly exciting...but the tag is what got me...$8.59!!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After taking off the black fabric 'belt', replacing it with a small nude colored belt, and pining the v-neck (more work appropriate) this dress is an easy summer staple. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Look for it in your closest Target, since it doesn't seem to have gone on sale online yet. </span><br />

There is nothing better than gradually strolling the endless rows with all senses at their peak. The smell of the freshly bundled mint, the bright toned tin-animal facade in the landscape area, the tunes of strumming street performers, the incredible tasty morsels of locally produced treats and even the seemingly indescribable feeling of energy shared amongst the diverse meandering crowds. The laid back community atmosphere is contagious.</span><br />
