    Pot Stickers a la Patrick

    Good Wednesday morning to you all! I woke up to some pretty intense thunderstorm this morning, which was amazing. I love waking up to thunderstorms. I have no idea why. I used to hate storms, was absolutely terrified of them. No joke. Like crawl into my Mom & Dad’s bed when I was 7 scared. Now? Love them. I couldn’t dream of a better way to get some shut eye.

    Chocolate Shortbread Cookies

    What a week!! I just got back from traveling for work last night and I am SO exhausted. I went to West Virginia and Virginia to see some customers and try and tell them about my company’s new products. Let me tell you…I will NEVER go to West Virginia again unless I am forced. You need a passport to go down there! No lie, I thought I was stepping into the movie Deliverance. You know with the creepy kid playing the bango?? GAH! So weird haha.

    I am off and running to Virginia and West Virginia this rainy week for work. Lots of customers to see and try to sell things to haha. It was soooooo nice to have a long weekend!

We missed you Mich! ๐Ÿ™ Always good to have a long weekend, but it always feels like they go faster than the normal weekends. AmIRight? I am already looking forward to this weekend where I am going to Penn State to visit with Tamara and show Patrick around. Getting more and more excited about it…
