The Shafferland Shuffle

Happy Sunday, everyone! This week, we have some classic Indiana for you in the old Shuffle! Hope you enjoy!

* Last Sunday was a glorious, low-key Sunday at home. It was also Super Bowl Sunday, and because we didn't have any personal investment in the teams playing, we didn't go to or host a party this year. I did make a clean eating queso recipe and clean eating mozzarella sticks for our party for two, and we watched the whole game! Commercials, half-time show, overtime and all!
* Monday night we had Tuesdays at the Table. Confused? LOL! We wanted to have our friend Randy over for dinner, but Monday was a better day for him, so that became our night! I kept the menu on the healthy side - a cleaned up version of cheeseburger soup, salads, and even a healthy dessert. We had a great time catching up with Randy!
* Tuesday was a rainy day: perfect for staying home to write, which is exactly what I did all day. Had a big old writing marathon. Worked on chronicling more of our story, which took me back to journals of yore. Ryan brought home a cupcake treat for us - leftover from a birthday party at work. Delicious! And we had Bible study, which turned out to be a great night of discussion!
* Ryan woke up Wednesday morning with Starbucks on his mind, so even before work, we were in the car headed out for a treat! And by afternoon, the entire city was coated in the most beautiful snow. It came down like a snow globe and was just stunning to behold!
* Annnnnnnnnnnnnd then on Thursday it wasn't so pretty anymore. It was just icy and dangerous. We even had a school delay! I slid back home JUST in time for my podcast interview with Sarah Beckman, and I worked on that the rest of the day. I remembered late in the afternoon that I was supposed to make a dessert for a small group meeting that night, so I scurried around to throw something together, and off we went to meet some new friends from church!

* Friday was a busy day for both of us - the kind of day that leaves you warming up leftovers for lunch and going out for dinner. Ryan sent me a picture from work: I think Ryan's work is a little too fun sometimes!! :) The fun went downhill when he got home: tax prep is not fun at all!
* Yesterday was supposed to be rainy, but it turned out to be a gorgeous WARM spring-like day. No coats needed! (Yes, you read that right. Two days after a snow day.) We did a county tour to Boone county, which I'll tell you more about tomorrow, but it was just such a fun day! Loved having Ryan all to myself and exploring new territory!

We had that gorgeous weather here, too, yesterday. Possibly even more gorgeous to enjoy when the forecast called for a high probability of rain that never materialized :).

Maria - YES! Much better to enjoy when you don't expect it! :)

Clean eating Mozz sticks & clean eating queso? How is that possible? Mind blown...
