YUM: Grilling Time

This weekend I used the grill for the first time this season. Still perfecting my steak cooking. Looks like the flames got the best of this guy, though the center was still pink. Loved the veggie kabobs: red potatoes, orange bell peppers, and baby portabellas.

Everyone should have a pair.

Jordan's parents placed these in my Easter basket. (Thank you!) I love them. They're soft and light: A great transition from my heavy slippers as we start to enjoy sunny spring weather.

I work with funny people.

Meredith recently revamped our vending machines to offer healthier choices. Someone was feeling fiesty on Friday, because they left this love note taped to the vending machine.

"I never knew flowers could make someone so happy." -Jordan

Jordan gave me flowers to congratulate me for my new job in San Antonio. I'm so proud. It's the first time he's ever bought flowers. I love them. Their glowing yellow happiness brightens my little apartment.

You know you want to

Go ahead. Relieve some stress by banging on that keyboard. No need for clean up.

After the slingshot, they went for the giant swing. Sorry for the not-so-stellar video. Jordan wasn't there to remind me that the camera can't flip vertical video.
