We’ve got a busy weekend ahead!
Today I am baking a cake for my friends baby shower that is
being thrown tomorrow at 230, her theme is Mustache, I’ll be making a large
handlebar mustache cake for the shower. Pictures to follow as soon as the cake
is complete.
I am cleaning my
house that has been neglected due to family visits and shopping trips. Yesterday
my friend Nancy and I went on a road trip to Kaefers, the crystal store. The
store is about an hour and a half away from here but the trip was well worth
it! I got a set of crystal champagne glasses for under 17 euro, they were originally
17 euro per glass. HELLO!!! I also found out that they are having a super sale
in July on all things Christmas. I don’t know if you know my little secret or
not… I’m a Christmas addict. I love it! I have three Christmas trees. I haven’t
actually put all of them up at once yet but this year is the year baby!
And then… we are
going to pick up our race packets for the Mannheim ½ marathon that is tomorrow
night. I have managed to really get into my head about this race, I don’t know
why all of the negative self-talk is creeping in but I’m really hoping that by
going to the race expo tonight I will get excited about the race instead of
dreading it. I don’t know why I am so worried about this race, I’m trained up
for it (though I could have taken my training more seriously and plan on picking
up the pace over the next few weeks). I really think that it has to do with
carrying a little extra weight, worrying about how Clark is going to be while
he is with the sitter, and the ever present fear of there not being a porta
potty when I need one…
So tomorrow we’ve got to go to the baby shower, come home
and change into our running gear and then head downtown to log some more miles.
Sunday I am making three pots of chicken stock, which will supply us with
roughly 21 quarts of stock (this is enough to get us through the next few
months) and relaxing around the house with Travis and Clark.
Have a great weekend!
