Beatles Lover goes Into The Woods

This year, Mr. Perfect and I didn't audition for the Taylorsville City Arts Council's show, but Beatles Lover did. It was Into The Woods, which I admit is one of my dream shows. But when auditions happened, I was in Sound of Music at the Empress and feeling seriously burned out of shows, and Mr. Perfect was head-deep in home improvement stuff and work. Beatles Lover was Snow White, who shows up quite late in the show, but they used her and another cast member with the same "issue" to help with scene changes in some very funny ways. Another good friend was Cinderella.

It was a very fun production.

The perfect pie crust. When I made the dough this morning, I was a little worried. It seemed way too sticky. But this afternoon, when I went to make the pie, it rolled out beautifully! I am a happy girl.

Wordless Wednesday

I have discovered...

I function much better, on an emotional level, when there are no boxes of kitchen things in the living room. To tell you how bad this feeling was, I didn't even take any pictures of the living room during this episode. Any. At all. None. Wasn't going to happen. I felt bad enough making my Visiting Teachers sit in it while visiting me.

Seriously. The kitchen is finally, official ready for a new floor (the final stage of the remodel). Once the bathrooms are finished and paid for (We love paying cash! Woot woot!), we will start shopping for kitchen flooring. That and one other big surprise are what we currently have planned for Christmas.

It's going to be a really good Christmas.

Rain, Rain, go away!

Okay, I know that late July and early August are monsoon season in Utah, but enough already! We're supposed to be living in a DESERT!

At least it's been really good for the garden. The pumpkin vines will soon be taking over the world, so you'd better watch out!
