Guess who's back in the house?

Us. We went to West Virginia and South Carolina. And a few states in between. But we're back. And so is our laundry. And I am tan for the first time in 5 years. Details coming soon!

Spice of Life

One of my kindest friends J has been talking about a spice store that she loves with all of her heart. I didn't think about it much until they opened one about 30 minutes from my house. *Insert the sound of my tires squealing as I head to J's house to pick her up.* If you are interested, it is called Penzeys. And it has every spice you can imagine. And maybe a few that you can't. Just go. But sign up for their catalog first. They'll send you an awesome coupon each month!

 There is a super cute children's area with coloring supplies.

My loot. And no, it's not as expensive as you would think it should be!

The spices I got were ones that I either (A) can't find at a regular store or (B) I couldn't resist how wonderfully fragrant they smelled compared to the McCormick's ones I usually buy.

And that BIG bottle front and center? It was free with the coupon. Now that's spicy.
