1. I recently bought this adorable journal.
It is seriously one of the cutest little journals I have bought. I usually am TERRIBLE at journaling, I always forget and I never know what to talk about when I don't have an interesting day. How this journal works is that it has a question for every single day of the year. So January 1st is "What is your mission?". On each page it has 20__ and space for you to write 5 times. So this time I write 2012 and my answer, next year 2013 and so on. Pretty self explanatory. But it is super cute and I am actually doing it!!
2. Institute was absolutely extraordinary as per usual. We discussed the Sabbath day, which normally always turns into what can and can't we do on the Sabbath but I got so much more out of it today. A really interesting quote that was shared tonight was by John H. Groberg. He said "There is a direct correlation between the proper observance of the Sabbath and true reverence for God, which includes obedience to His other commandments." I learned even more. It was a grand evening.
3. I have a new favorite show. To add to my nice collection of TV shows I love is now Lie to Me, thanks to my Dad for suggesting it (he knows me well). I absolutely love it! I have also decided that I want to learn to be able to read micro expressions and the science behind the show. It makes me think of the question when you are a little kid- "If you could have any super power what would it be?"- and I would always think, well I want to know what other people are thinking. Obviously there would be some negative consequences to that power but I still think it would be interesting. What better way then to be able to read people's micro expressions, which would allow you to be able to read those emotions that they are trying to conceal. SO AWESOME! Call me a nerd but I think it is super interesting.
4. This week I had a baking week and boy was it a good one, heck, the week has barely started. I made cupcakes (idea from pinterest) that look like owls. They were freakin' adorable. Lauren came over that night, so Jenni, Lauren and I put our little owls together, what a fun time.

Secondly, I was trying to study last night with no success. In the cafeteria at the college they have pizza pretzels, and they are absolutely delicious. I was tired of buying them so I (with a suggestion from Jenni- creation of Jenni's mom) I made cinnamon rolls but with pasta sauce and loads of cheese. My version of those pizza pretzels. Let me say, WAY better then the college.

I also realized that my future husband, if he doesn't watch what else he eats, and exercise he will be overweight.. I bake way too much.
