Recommended with a New Original Trail Mix!

Caleb and I went camping this past weekend, and we each made our own personal trail mix to take along.  I used this recipe from Chow.com as a springboard, and then I made plenty of adjustments.  And so, I'm sharing my first ever original recipe!

Follow all the directions listed on Chow, but you can use the ingredients below for a healthier version.  I used coconut oil for vegetable oil, agave nectar for honey, and I took out the brown sugar because coconut oil is sweet on its own, and I don't like very sweet snacks anyway.  I also made a smaller batch than Chow suggested, so my measurements are different.  And then for my add ins, I chose my favorites tasty things that, when combined, made the perfect summery, sweet and salty combination.  (I believe I added some salt at the end to tweak the taste a bit.)

My Work Anniversary Present and Introducing a Short Series

I've been here a year!  I've worked as an administrative assistant/office manager/recruiting coordinator for this power punching, darling little office for a year!

This has been the least stressful work year I've ever had.  Teaching children English and getting to love on them will always be my most rewarding job, but where I am now is an absolute second.  I get to work with professional peers and mentors and I'm part of a great team.  We appreciate each other, and we celebrate together.  Fun fact, my office is all women!  My mother-in-law still can't believe that we are a drama free zone, but it's true.

I really am lucky to have this job.  I get paid to organize!  I have my own office!  And you should see our Christmas party!  Also, I wanted to share this perfect little present my coworker got me to commemorate my first year!

Kickstarter for Potato Salad


The Potato Salad Kickstarter

The internet has exceeded this guy's goal by 2,171%!
I am shocked and amazed, and I think this might be one of the most ridiculous and awesome things I've ever seen.

Our Summer Bucket List

I've started writing some good lists as part of #29 in my 101 Challenge.

First things first, Summer Bucket List!
I can't for the life of me remember where I printed this adorable list template from.  If you know the source, please let me know!

Summer bucket list

I've been having a lot of fun with this, pegging down what I want to do, asking Caleb what he wants to do, seeing a great summer sprawl out before us, and getting to put this sheet of paper on our fridge!  (We don't have much on our fridge.)

What's on your summer bucket list?  Wanna come swing dancing with us?  Do you agree that The Sandlot is the best summer movie ever?

Nail art: It's a growing obsession now.

Oh guys, I'm doomed.  This nail art stuff is becoming a bigger and bigger hobby.  I just bought three small tubes of polish that come with very thin brushes.  I started practicing the first day, and I've been thinking up ideas for my next designs, and I'm pinning colors and inspiration to and fro.

A few must buys that are at the top of my list:

The Halo Hues collection from Color Club
Just look at these beauties!  They are cheaper than the holographic OPI polishes, and there is bound to be a color that suits your fancy.  Just gorgeous!  I think the one I want most is Harp On It (shown below).
