Midterms are killing me this year! Another week and I think things will settle back into place (expect for the fact that picking classes is upon us as well...the most stressful thing about college, haha!) This weekend will not be a restful one, but full of writing papers, studying, and working on presentations. I've got to keep this short, but don't worry, the Friday Finisher is still FULL of goodies for you to check out this weekend! Cheers!

Hiya Rebecca!
Finally had a moment to pop over for my favorite Friday Finishers. I see you're crazy busy but that's always a good thing. I've shared your Slow Cooker Apple Butter recipe to Barrie Hill Farms FB. Lots of beautiful apples there so they'll be thrilled to get it.
Have a great Sunday.

Great, thanks! Not sure why you comment on these irrelevant posts.
