Abby & Brandon’s Blog

We are working on packing up our apartment so things are getting pretty messy and the fridge is getting pretty empty…which left me to invent something for us to eat tonight.
I pulled some chicken out to thaw and figured, if anything, I could simply bake it and mix up a box of Pasta Roni. Later [...]

I haven’t done any new recipes this last week! I started a nanny job last week but found out quickly that it wasn’t a good fit for me. This week was my last week there and I haven’t had anytime for grocery shopping or cooking so I will have to start catching up!
Brandon and I [...]

Tonight I made Chow Mein Hot Dish for supper.
I just started a new job this week as a nanny and I have to get up at 5:30 and be there by 6:50. My commute is about 20 minutes…although all this snow has made it longer. I get done at 3:30, but a day with two [...]

The new recipe countdown continues! Well it actually continued on Friday night, but I haven’t gotten around to blogging it until now.
Friday evening’s recipe was Saucy Beef and Rice or you can use noodles. I went to noodle route for a couple reasons.

It started out as a wonderful day. Brandon is working from home today, I have a great list of stuff to do, I am feeling ready for the day, and the Bonnie Hunt Show had Richard Simmons as it’s first guest, so I had a great laugh to start the day.
Then…
The apartment building is doing [...]

First, I know it’s been awhile since we’ve actually posted anything and for that I’m very sorry!  But Abby and I have been very busy trying to get our life in order!  Nevertheless…
This summer has been amazing!  We’ve been busy almost every weekend and driving to and from places from all over the state!  Together [...]

Well, today I started at Wand Corp.  My first day and already have plenty of work to do.  Wand hired me (Brandon) as a Project Coordinator.  Although, everyone seems to think the title doesn’t really match.  After my orientation I found myself already emerged into a meeting to which I was lost for the most [...]
