Anticipated E-Mail

Hi friends!

Never have I anticipated an e-mail so much. I was supposed to receive my student teaching placement this week! I have been checking my Avila e-mail once every other hour this week - no joke. I don't get many emails to this account and so far this week I've had two. Here are the subject lines from those two e-mails:

• You have a bill from Avila University
• Swine Flu Information

Sigh.

I did finally receive an email from Avila saying that they're still waiting on final confirmations from some districts on placements. I have a feeling I wasn't the only anxious students and that the Avila staff was getting a variety of e-mails and phone calls about it.

I hope by the end of next week, I'll have some more details!

The Perfect Recipe Box

I have been looking for quite some time now for "the perfect recipe box." First, I started at antique shops thinking I wanted a tin one with a lot of history. After looking around, I realized that I wanted a new one....I wanted to be the one to get it dirty, to get sauce on the bottom, and burn one of the edges (which we all know is inevitable).

I bought a new one online a few months ago and it looked a lot different in person when it arrived. I recently sold it on eBay and I think I might have turned a small profit!

But tonigiht, I think I find "the perfect recipe box." Here....ladies and gentlemen (but mostly ladies)....is my soon-to-arrive recipe box & matching cards!

Love it! There is a bird, a pitcher, and two cake stands involved.

Hip hip, hooray!

XOXO,
