Brownies

Hello everyone! Sorry about the long absence of blog posts (Mom kept demanding one lately) even though my posts aren’t that interesting :)  I've been trying to get into a routine with work & stayed busy. I was incredibly surprised by how fast this week has gone by!

My second weekend of the new year began with driving down to south of Texas (325 miles to be exact) to meet my boyfriend (he will be driving up here next weekend). Driving by myself hasn’t always been my favorite thing, but I’m glad that this drive is feeling shorter each travel. Thankfully the traffic was fairly nice in Houston, where it usually causes me headache, so it only took me 5.5 hours instead of like 6. Each drive I am thankful for my almost-8-year car – I’ve been putting him to lots of work since I moved to Dallas area.

I was incredibly lazy while Z was gone to classes all morning; at least I have done his laundry & cleaned dirty dishes.

Tonight we had Japanese hibachi for dinner, then made brownies for dessert. Both of us have not really baked before so this was a fun, little activity. Now my stomach is full & happy.

Currently I am staring my eyes to the weather channel as I’m getting concerned with the forthcoming thunderstorms heading down its way to the South. I’m hoping that my returning trip on Sunday won’t be such hindrance, but I would expect some adventure.
