happy friday

This week was all about catching up from last week and by about Wednesday, I think we finally did. While I was in Chicago with my dad, Alex was in Lexington with his dad and brothers, so we both had a busy (fun) weekend. We each had a great time away, but as always, it was nice to be home again.

I don't have a lot planned for this weekend other than a baby shower and some dinner plans on Sunday. Alex has declared that he has no plans for this weekend and he doesn't want me to make any for him...

and with no further ado, here are this week's links:

This is absolutely my dream

"You're guess is as good as mine"

After all of my continuing education classes last week, I thought this would be good to share

Don't ruin your dinner parties...

I'm in the Thin Mint camp...what camp are you in?

Jimmy Kimmel hit the nail on the head with this

I have a new concern to add to my growing list...exploding phones

This article got me thinking about what is going on in my fridge

This isn't a new video, but I love it every time I see it...

Happy Weekend!

ps: Alex has been working on our office website, you should check it out

late in the game

I think I'm about 7 or so years late in the game, but I have finally gotten Twitter. Now I don't know how I existed without it. I feel like I haven't known this much about what's going on in the news and media since high school's Channel 1. If you want to follow me, I'm @abbybwilliams.

In other news, I'm still ready for spring to arrive but I think we still have more snow and ice on the way. I can dream...

Last weekend in Chicago was a lot of fun and I ate more in two nights there than I do in a week here. But, everything was so good! We ate at Bandera Thursday night and at RPM on Friday(and train food both coming and going-not as good). I finished up my required continuing education hours and learned a lot refreshed my memory of all things dental hygiene. I'm very thankful that my dad invited me to join him. He is a good travel buddy and certainly knows how to keep me on my toes ;)

happy friday

Hello from the Windy City! Wednesday my dad and I took the train up to Chicago and were welcomed by falling snow flakes. Today and yesterday our schedule has been filled with continuing education classes and walking the floor (aka vendor booths) to get free samples.

Last night we had a great dinner at Bandara and I can only look forward to more delicious food tonight! We will head home tomorrow and then rest for the remainder of the weekend. For your leisurely weekend reading, I found some good links, enjoy!


This video is only 6 seconds long, but every time I watch it I laugh out loud

This Etsy shop has me ready for summer

My friend Stephanie and I want to try our hand at making this cake...it looks delicious

This was a topic of conversation at a lunch with friends this week, so I found it to be an interesting read as well as some of the links within the post

Coming to a TV near you...via Netflix

This makes me wonder how some people get elected into office

In case you need a reminder that today is just one day

This would be quite the surprise on a date

In case you've been a little confused about all of the net neutrality discussions

Happy Weekend!!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I have a serious case of the travel bug. I don't make it easier on myself either, I am subscribed to several different email notifications for flight sales, getaway promotions and trip discounts. Everyday when I check my email, I begin wander-lusting and day dreaming...

I don't think it's a bad thing, but some times it think it may breed a bit of discontent. I have been trying to delete the emails and steer myself away from travel blogs and websites. I don't know how many times that I have planned a trip and then exited out of the browser at the payment screen. But, it's hard when it's so cold and dreary here. On top of the travel bug, I think I may have spring fever too...I hope I can find a cure soon!
