Normal, everyday Hannah

So I've decided: if I ever have a real blog that people read, I'm still going to write about normal things. Things that happen everyday. Things that might be embarrassing or not up-to-par in blog-land. Things that are just...life.

Take today for instance.
I made oatmeal caramel bars.
I spilled brown sugar all over the counter while trying to measure it.
I put too much caramel in them.
I used flour and sugar and TONS of butter. Totally healthy. Right?
They were under cooked.
But after it was all said and done...(and they were refrigerated for quite awhile)...they were absolutely delicious.
Not ashamed.

I also started to take a card table out of the storage closet so I could use it to address envelopes for the wedding invitations.
One table leg fell down.
I tripped over it.
In the midst of trying not to fall over, the table fell hard against my foot.
Totally graceful. Totally bruised.
And afterwards...I addressed and stuffed like crazy with Dr. Quinn the Medicine Woman playing in the background.
Spectacular.

I also tried a completely new combination for supper tonight.
I spent awhile chopping and frying and adding.
Totally botched it.
Still ate it.

Those things are life. And in Hannah's life...they're pretty common. And you know what? I don't mind that they aren't something to brag about. They happen. They make me laugh at the lightness of life. And life is still good. Very good.

And now, enjoy this (non-artistic and non-professional) picture of two adorable calves I visited this weekend.
