the weekend without B.

Can somebody please tell me why on earth weekends go by so super quickly? 
Weeks = Slow, Weekends = Record Breaking Quickness.  I don't care for that math.  Well, I have never cared for math at.all. but I really don't like this equation. 

In light of a quick weekend, I will give a quick weekend run-down.  Oh, seeing that hyphen makes me remember... Did you guys know that the newest Webster dictionary has words minus the hyphens.  Apparently people are getting lazy and think there is no need for them anymore.  i.e., Ice-Cream is now Icecream.  Seriously? What's next? Mary-Katherine becomes Marykatherine.  This will lead to more childhood obesity.  Kids are losing an entire pen/key stroke.  Fat fingers approaching, just you wait and see.

Reminder:  Bret was in New Orleans this past weekend for a Bachelor party he was throwing hence "the weekend without B"

Getting rid of hyphens?! UGH! That totally throws off a keyboard layout!

Looks like you had a fabulous weekend! I LOVE minestrone soup and cupcakes! I wish I had planned my weekend meals around that! :)

Wine with Sprite? Hmm I think I need to try this!!!=)
I wonder this often, why DO weeks go slow and weekends fly by?!

JG said...

I always thought Ice Cream was two words, not a hyphenated word. I LOVE cupcakes! You totally had me drooling every time you mentioned them!

What a fun filled weekend while your man was away. I sometimes enjoy a weekend to myself, definitely like once or twice a year -- hah. I loe that you wore his shirt with his cologne on it ... reminds me of when I dated a guy in high school!

You look great with a baby :) and I love how close you are with your family. funny that for me, too--if hubby is away I tend to hang out with my family often!

Tatiana said...

Those cupcakes sound delicious! You should get the recipe and share it with the rest of the droolers around here :-) I love hanging out with my family too. It's so awesome that you actually exercise with your daddy. And running 5 miles! Holy cow girl! I'm lucky if I make it a flight of stairs.
