happy friday


This week was not easy with that dang time change. I don't feel like I've caught up on sleep yet and I've been in bed by 9:30 for the past three nights...

Other than that we didn't have a particularly interesting week. Spring seems to have arrived and we've spent as much time outside as we can. I love living in the Midwest so we get to experience all four seasons equally.

This weekend we're planning to spend some time with my sister and her family and as always, catch up on the ever growing pile of laundry. I hope to find time to start my new book, but in the meantime this week's links are pretty entertaining. Enjoy!


I know that I'm not alone with my distaste for time changes...

We live in a world where the news can be a bit "crappy," this is no exception

On Monday The Bachelor wrapped up and I love this writers hilarious recap

Belle has my vote

This video made me tear up a little

I'm glad I wasn't following some of these semi's but, I feel like I would have stopped to help clean up the Twizzlers 

and one last video to end on...a cat fail

Have a great weekend!

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

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!

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
