About

I'm 30 with a great husband and a super cute son. I love to shop, love espresso, love a good pinot noir and love my friends. I tend to be reserved around people I don't know- until I figure them out. People tend to think that I am a bitch, until they know me. On occasion, they may still think that, but that's okay.

Delicious Meal from last night:

Cajun Shrimp Orecchiette

Items that you will need:

  • 1 lb of Shrimp (peeled, de-veined)
  • 2 cups of Orecchiette Pasta (shaped like ears?)
  • 2 cups of fresh baby spinach
  • 3 Shallots (minced)
  • 3 garlic Cloves (minced)
  • 1/4 cup of butter
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 2 tbs Cajun Seasoning
  • 2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup of cream
  • 1/3 of freshly grated parmesan cheese

Cook the shallots, garlic, butter until nice and soft. Add the white wine, cajun seasoning, continue cooking on low heat.  (taste to see if you have the right kick, add more cajun spices if you like)

In the meantime boil the orecchiette.  Strain.

Add the shrimp and spinach and orecchiette.  Put the lid on and let it simmer for 4-5 minutes, and then add the cheese and cream.

Simmer for another couple of minutes- and your done.

Serve with freshly baked bread.

Delicious, relatively fool-proof meal.

Enjoy.

This is what annoyed looks like. Re-Editing a book that I paid someone $45 an hour to do.

Baby W's Nursery

I have finally found the missing piece to the nursery.  The MIRROR (that will go over the dresser!)  

It has been located and hopefully will be picked up today by me! 

One of Colin’s favorite things was to look in the mirror and make funny faces when he was a baby, we also played a lot of peek-a-boo with mirrors, me acting surprised when we popped back into the mirror’s view.  We really enjoyed it.  

I have been on the hunt for months for the perfect mirror.  Hooray for little things that make me happy!

Another Test in Reflexes:

Think that you are selecting CD 5, which is John Mayer’s CD at 6:30 this morning on the drive to work

But actually select CD 6, which is KidBopz!

I have never reached for the radio and pushed a button so quickly.

Its too early for screaming kids.

I would like to start with tuition for Colin’s school.

Government are you listening?

I'm back.

I made it through.

I apologized to them all for being awkward.

They laughed.

I work with very generous people.

I am grateful for their generosity.

**sigh of relief**

About to head into my work baby shower...

Nervous, Heart is starting to race, I am sure that my neck is getting flushed.

Damn the nerves.  A glass of wine would help, too bad I’m pregnant.
