Another year, another decade.

This is officially the decade of marriage and babies. How crazy is that?! It actually sounds a lot crazier than it actually is. I am 25 at the moment. So, obviously, I will be 35 by the end of the decade. Wow. At the beginning of the last decade I was 15 and just learning to drive a car. Even bigger WOW.

In other news, we have been without heat for the past week. In even bigger news, the ancient system needs an absurd amount of work. Things installed in 1920 tend to start breaking 90 years later. We are opting to get the work done in an attempt to survive the rest of the winter. It is currently 49 degrees in our house and a brisk 29 outside. My little space heater is working overtime and GOD BLESS the heated kitchen floor. The heater dudes came last week but had to order some parts (I'm pretty sure they used their time machine to order everything from the '20s), so they aren't able to come back until tomorrow. Thankfully I work from home on Mondays so I will be around to hear all the bad heating news and write big checks. Uggg.

Oh and in the BEST NEWS of the day, I have nailed down my one big resolution for the year - to bake one new cupcake recipe a month (if not more). I got some silicone cupcake pans for Xmas and want to put them to good use. Also, I am going to make all the recipes from scratch. No boxed mix for this little lady. I am sort of really into cupcakery so this should be fun. It is also something that I can actually stick to since what could be more fun than baking and eating tasty treats?! Sure beats resolving to work out more.

Picture time!!!!!!! Enjoy...

Me want cupcakes.

Ringing in the decade.

Begging for treats. Sit, smack lips, lift paw. Never fails.

Happy Decade everyone!!
