cookie exchange: cookies and cream ice cream

a month ago i got an email

from a woman in my office

asking if i wanted to participate

in cookie exchange.

obviously.

but then i got an email last week

telling me how many cookies i had to make:

5 dozen.

o.m.g.

normally this wouldn't be that big of a deal,

but i had no idea what to make

and i was going to be out of town

the weekend before,

so i was pretty stressed about picking a recipe

and more stressed about making all of those cookies.

plus, i'm not a baker.

so i asked if i could make ice cream instead.

success.

i kept with the theme

and made cookies and cream ice cream.

and it was delicious.

2012 -- week 50 -- a week of friends and family

plan b.

when was the last time you played kickball?

elementary school?

yeah, me too.

but we joined an adult kickball league

for the fall season. 

because who doesn't like the idea

of drinking and playing kickball?

plus, it was a way for us to make friends. 

it was a great time.
and we made some great friends.



but we lost.

a lot.




and in the end
we weren't as bad
as we thought we were.

 

 

here's to you, plan b.
you're number one in my book.

ice cream & sunshine is on facebook!

i took the plunge. 

i started an 

ice cream & sunshine

facebook page.

https://www.facebook.com/icecreamandsunshine

(like me!)

so nervous.

i actually started it in august. 

(i was bored.)

but i was too nervous

to publish it.

so i waited. 

and then i got bored at work

and decided to publish it. 

perfection be damned. 

i'm still not 100 percent sure

why one needs a blog,

a facebook page,

an instagram,

pinterest,

tumblr,

etc.

but now i've got all of those.

basically, i own social media.

now i just have to wait for the 

followers and adoring fans

and i will be set.

because i'm pretty sure

those people who blog for living

have it made.

and i want to be one of them.

bad.
