Sigh... the only signs of life are the flowers on my side table.
I did manage to sneak in a six mile run during one of the few "dry" periods of the weekend.

Is it spring yet?
This weekend was one of those weekends where the weather wanted you to run to a warmer and less wet climate. Our backyard looked more like a swimming pool instead of a grassy lawn.
Sigh... the only signs of life are the flowers on my side table.

Whenever a boy comes over, you should always have something baking
Thankfully, I'm a slightly better baker than Cher! No burnt rolled up cookie dough in our house!
The hubs came home this weekend after a two week business trip to Fort Polk, LA. Yay, you're jealous, I know. Have no fear, the only souvenir he brought me was a 50 caliber shell he "found" laying on the side of the road. Such a romantic guy I have.
Anyway, in keeping with my baking trend I decided to whip up Pumpkin Cupcakes for his return. I was at Trader Joe's and their canned pumpkins were just calling to me! Like a dutiful wife, I baked fresh cupcakes, drove to the airport, picked up coffee, and circled the joint until the hubs and his brother had made it through baggage claim.
Oh yeah, I don't know if I've ever mentioned this before, but my brother-in-law works with my hubs. Actually, let me clarify that a bit. The hubs is my brother-in-law's supervisor. So yes, the hubs has power over his "big brother" at work. It's not a situation I would openly recommend to others. It's certainly provided a few awkward moments over the past 22 months.
The recipe is courtesy of the lovely Martha Stewart. Head on over here if you want to give them a try.
ETA: Blogger is driving me crazy and won't let me add a picture!!! Grr.

Goodbye February!!!!
February 2010 will go down as one of the craziest months of my life (thus far!).
In a nutshell, I went to Denver, Fort Lauderdale, Newark (NJ), and Phoenix for work. Then, I had a birthday mixed in-between. The hubs was gone for two weeks on various trips. The Olympics consumed any free time I might have had. And, Baltimore received 2 record breaking snowfalls in the span of 10 days.
Craziness.
