Let the summer of fun commence!

First, thanks, Jonathan, for posting those car pictures! I was very busy studying for exams and finishing up school projects.

I finished my last exam Thursday night around 8 p.m., and came home to a very messy house, a very sweet husband, and a very relaxing feeling. Jonathan took me over to Applebee’s for a celebratory “You-finished!” dinner. It was great.

We’ve got some really busy weekends coming up. Next weekend, Shannon, a friend of mine from USC, is coming to visit! I’m incredibly excited as I haven’t seen her in two years! I can’t wait to show her around St. Louis and hang out! The weekend after that, my parents are visiting, and the weekend after that I am either going to South Carolina to see my grandmother, or to Oklahoma to see Jonathan’s sisters and their families.

And I start my job in a little over a week, so that is exciting as well.

We have a lot of fun events to look forward to this summer, too. We’ve got tickets to see Wicked in July, an anniversary coming up, a trip to West Virginia/Ohio in June, a girl’s night at a jewelry-making class in June, and hopefully some camping or a lake trip at some point as well!

I’ve taken this next week off. No school and no work, so I can just relax a bit! I want to get our house back in order, and start sorting out stuff that we don’t need any longer to see in the city-wide garage sale.

Anyway, I’m looking forward to this summer!

Pain Perdu. Lost Bread. In France, pain perdu is Pain Perdu. Lost Bread. 
In France, pain perdu is a way to use bread that otherwise would have gone stale. Here, at Chez Magee, we’ve made a commitment to buy less food and eat what we have. This morning, I had two slices of stale bread that had been pulled out to make bread crumbs but we didn’t need as many slices as we pulled out; bread that otherwise would have been thrown away. I had a pear. I had ginger beer left over from thanksgiving mocktails and Chardonnay that we made pasta primavera with. Neither of us liked the Chardonnay enough to drink it on its own; another ingredient that would have been tossed. 

So I present my delicious Eggnog Pain Perdu with Ginger Chardonnay Pears.

French toast was made with stale bread, soaked in a solution of almond milk egg nog, eggs, and a scoop of vegan protein powder.
Pear cooked in Chardonnay and ginger beer, then removed once tender and the liquid reduced into a syrup.

Baby girl’s first Thanksgiving. I’m so thankf Baby girl’s first Thanksgiving. 
I’m so thankful for all of the blessings we’ve experienced this year that have helped offset the terribleness that has been 2020.
Daily affirmations for my kids. Let’s be real, Daily affirmations for my kids.  Let’s be real, 2020 has been freaking hard. The adults have felt stressed and irritable. My big kid has had to go through so much change ( good and bad), and he only sort of understands what’s going on. The one thing I can do is affirm for him that his place in my heart and life has constancy. Even on hard, sad, or disappointing days. Even on days when I’ve had to apologize for yelling when it wasn’t called for. Even when I can’t say when he’ll get to go back to school or play with friends again. Even when. 
Do you have any daily affirmations for yourself or your kids?

Love this picture of hubs and big kid when he was four months old. Fun fact, I bought this matching set for the first Father’s Day we ever celebrated, while I was still pregnant.
My short term disability for having abdominal surg My short term disability for having abdominal surgery (aka a c-section) ended yesterday, and I go back to work today! The good thing about working from home is that the coffee never sucks 😉 I have a new coffee nook set up that is both visually and deliciously appealing. I love how cute and cozy it looks! What would be in your ideal coffee station?
