Moving forward, it's all about exploring new teaching resources and strategies, writing more, reading more, and maintaining this balance that has brought so much happiness and fulfillment to my life.
This New Year's, we stayed in but kept all of the glitz and glamour of ringing in the new year. In dress and bowtie, we sipped on champagne as we fixed foie gras three ways, danced in the rosy glow of Christmas lights, and reflected on the past year.
This Christmas season, Kyle and I crammed in as much holiday fun as we could muster. We spent a lot of time with our families, friends, and one another, and looking back, these past few weeks have been filled with a plenty of love and laughter.
I’ve been wanting to make liquor infusions and hard eggnog for a few years, but they take several weeks to infuse, and things get so crazy around the holidays that before I know it, I don’t have time to prepare them as Christmas gifts. Not this year – I got started early!
Reversible Seamless Tank - Anthropologie Pink Tee & Ruffled Cardi - Anthropologie Skirt, Belt, & Tights - Lane Bryant Leather Boots - Naturalizer Do you have one of these reversible tanks from Anthro? They're stretchy and smoothing with one side as a v-neck and the other as a scoop neck. They're my favorite layering tank and come in tons of colors that change with the seasons.
One of our newer holiday traditions that we ourselves created is to host a holiday dinner party with Kyle's family. The first year we served beef wellington; the next year was a Swedish Christmas theme with red, apple, and straw decor and a meal of Swedish meatballs, spring sandwiches, and sipping on aquavit; and this year we decided to go Mexican!
Last night we went to the 89X Stole Christmas show at the EMU Convocation Center. I bought tickets the morning they went on sale, not realizing it was for The Killers. Tegan & Sara posted they were playing at EMU on December 20th. I bought tickets. When they arrived, I realized the show was actually for The Killers with Tegan & Sara opening. Kyle and I like The Killers but only know their stuff that plays on the radio, so in preparation for the concert, we picked up their latest CD and loaded Pandora with some of their music, and happily found that we really dig their music as well.
Friday night we had dinner in before heading out to see A Midsummer Night’s Dream in downtown Ann Arbor. I’ve never seen the play performed; I've only seen the movie. In the film the imagery is like something out of a Rococo fairytale: lush, glowing, flowering, and romantic. That’s what I was expecting, but that’s not what I got. What I got was even better...

About LizI love teaching. I do. But since I started teaching four years ago, it's defined my entire life. What did I do before I became a teacher? I shopped, cooked, decorated, played dress-up, and went out on the town. And I'm reclaiming that past and all-too-infrequent-in-the-present life of mine! Good Reads* Anthromollogies
