The Fabulous Life of Ang

The Theme for 2009

I decided I needed a theme for 2009, especially after last night when Angie put us on the spot at her New Years Eve Party and had us sum up 2008 and say what we hoped for in 2009. I literally had NOTHING to say. And as we all know when I have nothing to say I usually say something dumb. So Ang, if you are reading this, please delete the video I made. And a HUGE thank you to Mike & Ang for hosting Jeff, CJ & I for a fabulous NYE celebration filled with scrumptious Chinese takeout, rockband and Barb's delicious pistachio cupcakes.

So, back to the theme, I may also need a theme song, (remember Ally McBeal?), but first I will start with a theme. I think I will go with Re-dedication to the things I LOVE doing besides being a wife and mommy. I don't want anyone to think I am going to stop changing diapers and making Jeff chicken potpie, but hey a sister needs to recharge the creative juices once in awhile. Here are the things I need to do more of:

#1)Workout

#2)Cook

#3)Blog(how lucky are you?!?!?)

#4)Craft

#5)Organize a girls weekend away for my other pals that need to recharge.(if you have ideas on this, email me!)

I am happy to report I spent a giant part of today cooking, first I made a cookies and cream cake spur of the moment, literally saw the picture in one of our cookbooks, and started baking. Totally worth it, Jeff declares it a potential birthday cake contender. Second I made a home made chicken club pizza with bacon, tomatoes, onions, chicken & Cheese, the sauce was literally just a smidge of mayo with lemon zest - SO GOOD!

Happy 2009 to you all!
