http://scrapsofsplendor.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
On Wednesday, December 29, 2010. This is his wardrobe. Notice any patterns? Today the impossible happened. I found shirts that were NOT vertically striped. See? And Andrew not only liked them, but bought them (and they were on clearance for $7:99! In other good news, Andrew and I made two different kinds of lasagna yesterday. If you want the recipe, let me know. :). Next, we made 'Christmas Lasagna'. From Chef John's FoodWishes blog. It was quite excellent! Food is one of my favorite things. Today I made...

The quietness, the still moments, the second cup of coffee, the snuggling on the couch. We're gonna traaaiiin you.

Scraps of Splendor: Briana Soup
http://scrapsofsplendor.blogspot.com/2010/12/briana-soup.html
On Friday, December 17, 2010. If I were a soup. I would be egg drop soup. No, never mind.that's just what sounds good right now. I would have a strong, moral stock,. But with a few unanswered questions mixed in. I would be a colorful soup.artsy and full of variety. A versatile soup.something that goes with a lot of different dishes. I'd have a good dose of guilt, slightly flavoring everything. And I'd be made with obsessive perfectionism. But never quite there. I WOULD NOT have lima beans in me. Ick.

Scraps of Splendor: Food is one of my favorite things.
http://scrapsofsplendor.blogspot.com/2010/12/food-is-one-of-my-favorite-things.html
Food is one of my favorite things. On Monday, December 27, 2010. Perhaps inspired by the Julie and Julia movie, I decided to blog about my food conquests. Plus, food is so delicious and pretty to look at. :). Today I made french onion soup.my absolute favorite soup of all time. There's nothing like caramelized onions gently simmered with a dash of sherry wine and homemade beef stock, topped with bubbling gruyere cheese. Mmmmmm. There you have it. The chicken bryan sounds amazing! Other Blogs I Like.

Scraps of Splendor: March 2010
http://scrapsofsplendor.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
On Friday, March 26, 2010. The Princess and the Pea. I always thought that this fairy tale was a ridiculous story. Being one to sleep through anything, I never understood how one little pea could be such a bother to the girl, especially through the countless mattresses. As children can be quite literal, I remember thinking that finding a way to. To the top of those mattresses would be the painful and annoying part. Today, I thought about the Princess and the Pea in a slightly more abstract context:.

On Sunday, January 2, 2011. Well, Happy New Year! It might be a while before I post pictures again. Our camera broke around the same time as my last blog. Andrew went to Best Buy twice, looking at cameras, and we weren't able to agree on what kind to get. We went back a 3rd and 4th time.and came home with a Wii. My arm is killing me from tennis and boxing, bowling and frisbee golf. But I look forward to the simplified schedule. For the next few months, this blog might be a bit of a 'Student Teaching Blog...

On Sunday, January 9, 2011. Well, it's been one week. I get to my school at 7:40 in the morning, and I get home anytime from 4pm to 5:15. Let me just tell ya: teachers do not get enough credit.

I left relatively quickly after school ended, but my cooperating teacher (CT) stayed later, sometimes until 7pm, to prepare for the coming lessons. Wow! The kids, no question. They were RIGHT with me.and it was great to feel like I was making a difference. Thats...

Scraps of Splendor: October 2010
http://scrapsofsplendor.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
On Wednesday, October 6, 2010. I take my faith very seriously. I expect people who call themselves Christians to behave like Christians. I don't expect perfection among my fellow believers, but I do expect my them to admit their mistakes and ask for forgiveness.and change. I expect these things not only from my peers but also from myself- not because I think it should be that way, but because it's how God has called us to be. Why does my stomach tighten in anxiety even as I write these words? But this re...
