We have a puppy!!



She is pretty playful so far, which I think applies to all puppies!







And then she gets tired and sleeps. She was super exhausted yesterday, probably because she had a very busy day!





We are very happy with our puppy!
You may even say we're a little biased!
Well I'm sure she'll be done with her nap any time now, so I had better get going!
I hope you are all having a fabulous week so far!

Puppy Love Monday

We get to pick Aphrodite up today!! I'm so excited!!
We are all ready for her!
I looked at Larry yesterday and I asked him
"Hey honey, can we get a puppy?"
"Yes we can!"
"Can we get one tomorrow?"
"Absolutely!"
I don't know why, but that made me really REALLY happy!
We're such nerds.

Well, I know most of the rest of the world got snow this weekend, but it still feels like Spring is back in full force here in Arizona!
Which makes me so excited for Summer!
I may not be so excited for it in a few months...thank heavens for air conditioning!
But, at the moment, I'm all about all things Summer!
I think someday in the future I'll have to replace my sunglasses, which went inexplicably missing last year...
As I'm sure most sunglasses do!
I seem to have the worst luck when it comes to sunglasses!
Personally, I like the ones in the picture up there! But, being Stella McCartney, I doubt that I'll be purchasing them.
They certainly are cute though!

Anyway,
I had best get going and finish all the things I need to do before we leave to pick up Aphrodite!!
I hope you have a beautiful and bright Monday!!

A Plethora of Projects

I can never finish anything.
I always always have about three or four projects going at the same time.
This week, I'm rotating between a crochet project,



Unpacking and hanging pictures,





(My favorite corner:)



And a cross stitch project!



And then, there are the projects I wish I was working on...
That's a whole other can of crazy





Oreo pancakes. Um, yes please!




I kinda want to make this blanket in mint...or yellow, blue, and grey...the possibilities are endless!!



The week is almost over and we have a puppy coming soon! So here's hoping that we can finish unpacking everything before the puppy gets here!
A quick update on Larry's Air Force situation, he finally heard back and his medical pre-screen was approved so now he just needs the other recruiter to call him back so he can get his MEPS taken care of. We'll see how long that takes...
So, lots of work to do! Better run! Hope you are having a fabulous day!

Great Style and A Wall Clock

Here's my problem
I'm cheap
Like ridiculously, I don't even want to pay for food,
cheap.
(Seriously, in my single days I'd go to the store with a whole list of things I needed. But then I'd talk myself out of each item, one by one, till I'd walk out of the store with basically nothing, congratulating myself on saving so much money. Then I'd go home...and realize I had no food...)
And yet somehow I make fun of my husband for not wanting to spend more than five bucks for pants...
So instead of purchasing all of the cute things I love, I just look at them on pinterest and realize just how unfashionable I truly am.
I prefer to think of it as living vicariously.









Also, in the spirit of randomness, we need a clock.
So I'm wall clock shopping.
And this is where that whole cheap thing is simply not handy.
But I've found this cute one that is supposed to look like a pocket watch, but it's a wall clock!



Anyway, I'm going to go continue trying to convince myself I'm not addicted to pinterest...and sweep my kitchen...and maybe dust...or something like that...
Have a gorgeous day!

THE BEST Chicken Enchiladas

These are incredible.
No joke!
Super creamy and moist chicken enchiladas! And the great thing about them is, there are two ways you can make them.
Either as actual enchiladas, or as a casserole.
SOOO GOOD!!
I figured I'd share the recipe with you today!

What you'll need
-Abt 3-5 cups cooked, shredded chicken
-1 Can Cream of Chicken Soup
-1 Can Cream of Mushroom Soup
-4 Tablespoons Sour Cream
-4 Tablespoons Salsa
Cheddar Cheese
Flour Tortillas

Enchilada directions:
Mix the soups, sour cream, and salsa and heat on the stove.
Pour some of the sauce in the bottom of a greased baking dish
Spread sauce over both sides of the tortilla shell
Sprinkle chicken and cheese in the middle of the shell and roll
Continue this process till you have filled the baking dish
Pour left over sauce over enchiladas and cover with cheese
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden and heated through

Casserole directions:
Combine the soups, sour cream, and salsa. Heat in a pan on the stove.
Cut the tortillas in pieces
On the bottom of a 3 quart dish, layer tortillas, chicken (half), soup mixture (half)
Repeat layers and top with tortilla pieces
Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes
The last five minutes, sprinkle cheese over the top, return to the oven and bake the final five minutes

Well, there you go! The casserole is by far the easier to make of the two, but still, quite tasty! I've been wanting to add corn to the soup mixture and see how that tastes in the casserole so someone will have to try it and let me know how it turned out!
For now, happy Tuesday and I'll see you all tomorrow!

A Good Throw Pillow is Hard to Find

I have been searching high and low for good throw pillows.
But I always seem to come up against two problems.
1. Larry believes a pillow should be comfortable, and things with ruffles and beads just aren't meant to be laid on, thus he vetoes many a pillow!
2. THEY'RE SO DANG EXPENSIVE!!
But, there was light at the end of that tunnel! Target, I should have known!
They have these wonderful faux-suede pillows that come in blue, yellow, gray, red, tan, and brown. The best part? They're on sale right now for about seventeen bucks, for not one, but TWO of them!
It's wonderful!
We got the blue and yellow ones and they go fabulously with our couches!
(You can find them here!)



Oh yes, which brings me to our moving adventures!
We moved on Saturday!
Which actually translates to: we built stuff on Saturday!!
We had to put together a dining table, two bedside tables, a dresser, a bed frame, a tv stand, and a book case! Which pretty much took us ALL DAY LONG!!
So we ended up bringing over more essentials yesterday.
No matter how much I hate moving, I always enjoy getting to open up all of those boxes of wedding gifts all over again. It feels like I'm opening them for the first time!
So, once we got to a stopping point, and we actually had things to cook on/with, we made some dinner and set the table for the first time...again.







We still have quite a bit of moving to do. So that is what we will be working on this week! We want to have everything settled before Aphrodite gets here! We anticipate we should be getting her a week from today!!
If you don't get annoyed by the number of pictures of food I might be posting, you most certainly will with the large influx of puppy pictures you're about to get!!
It's bound to be a busy week! That's for sure!
I hope you all have a great start to yours! It's beautiful here, I hope it's beautiful where you're at too!

Hello Emerald!

I've been seeing so much emerald these days!
I don't know if it has to do with all things Oz (movie was awe-some! BTW), the fact that St. Patrick's Day is Sunday, or if it's just finally getting its style moment.
I might just be a little biased since it is my birthstone, but I honestly haven't always loved emerald.
But, I must admit, it's growing on me!
It may have something to do with these shoes...I mean, who doesn't love gucci first of all?
Second, these shoes are gorgeous!
Well, we're moving tomorrow and it's going to be quite the adventure!
We can't wait to not be living out of suitcases anymore!
Sorry if I end up flooding you with mundane pictures of food and baked goods since I'm actually looking forward to unpacking our kitchen!
I'll try to at least share a few recipes if I find something I really love!
Anyway, I hope you have a beautiful weekend!!

Less Than Three,
Sarah
