And It Is All So Crystal Clear

I want to show you something cool. 


Something clear.


Something beautiful.





And that is WATER.

These are fountains of thin perfect streams of water.

To show you how thin, I had Garett break the stream with his finger.
As if a watery umbrella had a piece cut out of it.

I could not get over the pure beauty of it.


Perfect.


And when the wind blew it often looked like a jellyfish.

 

Maybe it was just me, but these fountains were beautifully designed.
I thank the designer of these fountains for giving me a little piece of happiness.
Hope I spread some to all of you.
Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!

I think my art
history classes 
are getting to me.

The Impressive Grasping Skills of Children

Sometimes I get in moods in the evenings where I REALLY don't want Garett to leave (more then usual).
This normally occurs when it is getting close to curfew.
I cover his eyes and tell him NOT to look at the clock.
...
Then he looks at the clock. =/
He tries to get ready to leave.
I try to take his shoes/backpack and hide them.
Then I hold onto his leg like Agnes does in this video (Time: 2:50-end).
Unlike Agnes, I am not that strong and he tickles me until I let go.
Then I pout.
But he always hugs me and tells me he will see me tomorrow.
Then I feel a little better and I let him leave. 
But I remind him if I did not do things like this every once in awhile, he would not know how much I love seeing him and spending time with him.

If only I could hold onto cling to people like kids can.
Oh well. 
 At least he knows how much I care. =] 
Anyone else up for 
some kids movies?
They're the best!

Oh the Mini Adventures We Have in the Comfort of Our Livingrooms

Tonight Garett had to use the bathroom.

As he comes out from the hallway what do I see?
...
...
...
Garett holding a HUGE soap bubble in his hands!
And what does he do with it?

He shoves it in my face and it pops on my nose.
He laughs and runs away back to the bathroom.

What a silly man.
Isn't he great?

I'm getting better at
this thing call cooking
It's normally edible, 
not TOO burnt and
might even smell good.

Sometimes

 
Garett and I are really silly.
And by "sometimes" I mean always.
And sometimes happiness comes in the form of a 5'11" sweet blonde man.
Making me a very happy Megan.

Yours truly,
Meg

I Have Found A New Love

I actually enjoy cooking.
There is something joyful about creating something delicious.

It is seeing ingredients slowly build together to create something I get to enjoy.

Plus I think Garett enjoys me cooking too.

It's exciting from the beginning as I pick out the ingredients at the store in preparation for something yummy.

This is normally where Garett gives me funny looks as a I resist the urge to jump up and down in the store as my taste buds are anxious to enjoy this food.



Even better is attempting to recreate my mother's recipes. Not gonna lie, it is hard to recreate 20 years of perfecting my mom's recipe. It still went rather well regardless.












This is where I say YUM!!!!











Sometimes Garett decides it is his turn to cook. He makes stew that is DELICIOUS. He tries to pretend like it is no big deal, but actually it's quite impressive. ;D









A new recipe I have been trying which is a Veggie Rotini Pasta Salad and it was DELICIOUS and somewhat addicting.



Garett and I got in a baking mood and made 72 tiny cupcakes. Cute huh? Oh and homemade icing. =]













Some where regular icing (lighter colors). The darker were hot cocoa flavored and VERY good. =]













Then after he devours everything I/we make, he likes to curl up and take a nap. Apparently my lap makes a good pillow. But I don't mind because as long as he is with me, I am happy. =]


                                              

I'm sad to say Garett does not like me taking pictures when he sleeps. But what else is there to do when my man is napping? Regardless he's so cute when he naps and I have to keep record of these moments or one day I might forget.





Anyway hope you're having a lovely day!


Meg
