The first week of "summer". It's weird restricting the days and falling into a "non" school routine again. It's good to take a bit of a breather and relax a bit, but I feel like I'm procrastinating and wasting my days too. I'm sure in a week or two I'll find my footing again and actually start enjoying the time off. However, it is pretty wonderful that I can take walks outside in the warm, wonderful sun again. Totally enjoying that as a way to break up the day! Plus, there's ample time to have fun in the kitchen and start testing out crazy recipe ideas again!
And guess what guys, it's Mother's Day on Sunday and that means you need to go treat your momma to a wonderful day (or if your a mom, take it easy! Maybe watch some Napflix!) If you're a really awesome daughter/son, make your mom a fabulous brunch! Maybe some cinnamon buns or stuffed french toast?
