A Hallelujah Moment

Today I had a Hallelujah Moment.

I took my first written test in dental hygiene.

It was for head and neck anatomy.

And let me tell you how excited I am that it is over.

FLIPPING EXCITED!

I might not be so excited when I see my score, but I don't know yet.

Anyways I have two more tests this week,

both on Thursday.

And I have a billion other little things to accomplish before Friday,

but for now I am going to take a couple hours and do NOTHING.

Toodles!

Until next time!

Done!

So I finished all of my finals on Wednesday!! And it was the

BEST feeling ever. I have gotten back

my grades from all of my classes. Well technically that's a lie.

I have gotten the grade I got on the final back and 

then calculated my final grade. I got an A in all of my classes, except STATISTICS. :( I got a B+. Which is not bad by any means, but

I of course wanted an A. Oh well.

On Thursday Sam finished his finals, we packed up everything that we could need for break, and then headed up to his

parents house. They left to go visit their daughter Christina in Vegas for the weekend, so we have just been hanging out and

watching the animals. Fun stuff. Tomorrow we are going skiing. I am excited to 

be able to ski for as many days as I want over break. YAY. 

Now I need to get cracking on Sam's Christmas gift. I am making him a quilt. It's my first one so wish me luck!

Are you guys making any handmade gifts?

Until next time!

I finally WON!!

So remember this giveaway?? Well I won!!!

At first I actually didn't win. The person who did win, didn't respond within 48 hours, so another winner was picked and it was me!! YAY! Also as I was entering in my promotion code for the free product, I noticed that it was $50. The product itself is only $40, so I bought $10 worth of extra goodies. 

Anywho I thought I would share the good news with you!!

Have you ever won any giveaways?

Until next time!

The Fight

In the left corner, weighing in at 20 pounds is JACK THE CAT!!! AHHHHH

He actually really is 20 lbs. This picture just slims him. 

And in the right corner, weighing in at 7 pounds, is LECIL THE DOG!!!!

Round 1:

Round 2:

After much deliberation by the judges the winner of this fight is: JACK THE CAT!!!!

He had the clear size advantage, but that's not what

made him the winner! It was his impressive head lock!

Until next time!

Butternut Squash Soup

About a year ago, maybe a little more, my friend had a bridal shower that 

I went to. One of the dishes there was 

Butternut squash soup and it was seriously sooo good. It came from Kneaders. For those of you who are not from Utah, Kneaders is

this great little restaurant that is famous for their all you can eat french toast. Well it just so happens that they make super delicious soup.

Ever since then I have wanted to make some of this soup. But I never found a recipe, actually I never even looked for one. But I go the craving for

some the other day and hunted the web for a recipe

that had a picture that looked similar to the soup I ate. Most of the ones I saw the soup looked pretty runny, this one looked perfect. I found this great food blog called the Brown Eyed Baker and she had this recipe. I made it and it was amazing! Just like I remembered it to be. P.S you should totally check out some of her other food, AMAZING. 

Here are a few things that I did differently. I didn't steam the squash because I don't have that contraption. So I just cut them in half, took out the seeds, and plopped them in the oven at 350 for 

about and hour. Then I tried to take into account how much water would have been used in them steaming process. The recipe calls for 6 cups of water. I used 4ish and think it was a little too much for my liking. The soup was a little bit runnier than I wanted. But you should definitely try the recipe!

It is seriously so good and pretty easy to make!

Until next time!
