The Darrs: Springtime in Nashville
http://steveandsarahdarr.blogspot.com/2011/04/springtime-in-nashville.html
Thursday, April 14. We spent a long weekend visiting Steve's parents in Nashville. After the spring we've had up north, it was just the break we needed. Two of the days topped out over 80 degrees! The greenery and flowers gave me hope of what's to come in Minnesota. There's something about Nashville scenery that is so calming and serene. You feel like you're in a movie. Cherry blossoms in Phil and Linda's back yard. We stopped by the Dave Ramsey headquarters . Saw the original Grand Ole Opery.

Tuesday, September 14. Despite the fact that I ran track in high school and have been known on occasion to go for a jog, I don't still consider myself a runner. Several years ago I did a handful of 5k races, but if I'm brutally honest it was more for the perks (t-shirts, snacks, etc) than the actual running. 3 miles in, still smiling. 5 miles in, Katie still smiling, me not so much. 6 miles in, no explanation necessary. :).

Thursday, February 10. This January, we went on an amazing trip with our friends Andy and Lisa to Thailand. Neither Steve or I had been to Asia before, so we were incredibly thankful for friends who are both familiar with the culture and great travel companions! We took so many pictures and have memories that will last a lifetime. PART I: Chiang Mai. And stole wine from the beverage cart which, as a nervous flyer, made me all the more uneasy. But we survived and the anticipation kept us sane. We were all...

Sunday, October 17. It has been an absoutely beautiful autumn in the Midwest, the best that I can remember- mild temperatures, brilliant colors and lots of sunshine! We have been trying to soak it up while it lasts. Last weekend we went up to the cabin to close it down for the winter. It was the perfect combination of work and relaxation. Sitting on the dock taking in the view.. Lacey, our faithful sidekick, waiting for us to play with her. My Dad chopped down some trees. Steve split the wood. It seems ...

Friday, May 28. Let the Countdown Begin. Exactly one month from today we'll be moving into our new house. We are so excited! I think we've driven past the house at least once a week since we bought it. I'm sure the current owners recognize our car by now! In the meanwhile, we have been dreaming about the house with wish lists, to-do spreadsheets and magazine clippings for inspiration. It's helped suppress our impatience so far. :). Monday, May 17. I wish I took a picture of it. We talked for hours ab...

Wednesday, March 16. The last leg of our trip we went to the Koh Phi Phi island and Railay Bay. As the saying goes, the pictures are worth a 1,000 words. We lounged on the beaches,. Hiked up to the viewpoint on the brutally steep path (thankfully it was worth it in the end),. Watched the sunset every evening,. Found a tiny newborn kitty on the road (& couldn't resist picking up),. Went to see 'The Beach' from Leonardo DiCaprio's movie,. Stopped at Monkey Beach and gave them a few snacks,. When we got bac...

Friday, December 17. It's been far too long since I've done a food entry so what better topic to redeem myself but a hot and chewy pretzel! I have to admit this recipe intimidated me at first. I'm much more of a cooker than a baker. I don't know if I've ever used instant yeast without the supervision of my Mom! During our blizzard last weekend I was so stir crazy so I scoured my recipe ideas and decided to give it a try. they turned out far better than I could have expected! 1 tbsp. sugar. The first day ...

Friday, July 30. So other than fajitas and pizza, this is one of the first real meals we've made! It's one of my favorite summertime meals -BBQ chicken salad. And I love that it's mostly a pile of fresh ingredients instead of detailed recipe. I believe this recipe originated from California Pizza Kitchen, but there are many variations out there and I'm not sure how close this compares. And I think you'll agree this salad is really more of a entree than a side dish. Romaine lettuce, chopped. One day our m...
