The Notebook

No, not the movie, something that sits in our coffee table


Something we just started doing, this notebook is used to jot down anything and everything we find interesting television. The idea came up last week when Mark and I were watching one of our favorite stations, Food Network, and both agreed we wanted to travel to some of the restaurants on the show, "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives". By the end of the show, both of us had forgotten where the restaurants were and agreed "we need to write this kind of stuff down".
End result: the notebook.

To clarify, we are not TV junkies, but, we do like to relax with a bowl of popcorn and watch some of our favorite shows after our homework is done for the night. :) So far, we have a few facts about old items from the show Pawn Stars and some from Food Network. Our idea is that by having this notebook, we will justify our time watching TV and will be able to use the information we write down for future meals, trips, and anything else we want to remember.

All moved in!

Well it's been a few weeks now since we've moved in, and we have been really busy! We spent our first whole week shopping, exchanging, un-packing, re-arranging, and setting up our apartment. We absolutely love how it has turned out! Here are some pictures of it now:





Here is our kitchen area - we've been having fun cooking our own food, and of course popcorn! I (Mark) have set the smoke detector off already, but I'm working on it...Jill has been making some great food, including the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had!
