Cheddar Herb Biscuits

I have been waiting to make these biscuits, but I knew I would eat more than my share of them so I wanted to wait till we had a lighter, healthier dinner to go with them. Sunday night we finally grilled some chicken for a grilled chicken salad. This is something we had put off for quite a while because we have been busy or it got to cold at night. Well, yesterday was perfect. It stayed light outside longer and the temperature was just right. We spent practically the whole day with our doors open. I missed the grill. I am not sure if this chicken was especially exceptional or maybe its just been that long since we grilled something.

I only made the bread part of the biscuits not the topping. I also made 12 full biscuits instead of the mini ones. We added a bit of butter in between each biscuit, and it hit the spot. These would be phenomenal with a little bit of ham in between. I plan to try that later this week!

Week 44

a bag

I really like flamingos. I have even tenatively decided that it would be awesome for Baby Girl to be a flamingo for Halloween this year or maybe just when I want to dress her up. I found this bag in the new Kate Spade summer collection. Too bad it costs $325.



just for fun

Glen and I don't take a lot of pictures together. Maybe its because they never turn out well when we take them ourselves. I guess we need to get in the habit of using the tripod. This one turned out fun, and after taking all my belly shots, I think I look a lot better in pictures that aren't by myself.

22 weeks + crib

So last week I posted about how great I was feeling. Then came the weekend. Friday afternoon I did something to my back {pulled a muscle, injured a nerve, not really sure what}. So pretty much all weekend I layed on the couch doing nothing. Although what I really wanted to do was go look at baby stuff for Baby Girl Scogin. I am glad to report that I am feeling much better and just have the minor pregnancy aches that are to be expected. So here we are at 22 weeks...getting much bigger in my opinion. I am not sure that I will keep up the weekly picture and update because let's be honest a picture of me every week with slightly the same size belly isn't super exciting, but I wanted to post this week to say a BIG THANKS to our friends Bridget and David for letting us use their crib. We put it together tonight and now I feel like the room is turning into a nursery!

A letter from Cosmo

dear humans that live in MY house,

Thank you for letting me out every morning when I stand beside the door in the kitchen and meow as loud as I can. I wouldn't have to meow that loud if you would attend to me quicker though. Also, you are kind of crowding my sleep space at night so if you could move your pillows apart a couple more inches I would appreciate it. Thank you for the taste of chinese food the other night. Please feed me that every day. Also, I am so much happier now that I don't have that collar on and you can scratch me so much better. If I were you I wouldn't go looking for it. You will never find it. Plus now that I don't wear that dorky thing with the tag that has my name on it I am much cooler according to the other neighborhood cats.

sincerely,

collarless Cosmo
