Burning things, and falling hooks!

So... I started a blog! I'm sure it's just mostly for myself anyway, but maybe someone will, maybe, one day, get something from it! Okay, so that's a lie, maybe it's just mostly for my mom and mom-in-law. 'Cause you know, now that we're married we never talk to them anymore! (So they say ;-) Anyhow, I thought this would be a fun way for everybody to catch up on what's happening with Caleb and I (because there's so much.) Okay, and... everybody else has one, so I guess I'm just a conformist! 

We've been married for three weeks today! Crazy! It feels like just about forever ago that I was so anxious and so tired of waiting even though there was only like what? One more day left! We love our little apartment, it's got it's quirks, but then again, so do we. Our showers last all of like 7-10 minutes, the faucet in the kitchen has a perpetual drip, there's about a foot and a half of room to walk between our bed and dresser (awesome, brand new, beautiful, works-so-good dresser), we finally fixed the weird light in the, uh, dining room, and of course the falling hook!

We got this awesome coat hook for our wedding it says "LOVE." I really wanted it to be hung up so we could hang coats on it. I went to Wal- Mart and bought those nifty little Command Hooks. We followed the directions to a T, and about, oh... three seconds after it was up it fell right off! Caleb said, "The back of the door is too porous." I thought, Okay, whatever that means. Just fix it. He told me if we had some packing tape he could fix it. Anyway, to make a long story short, the hook is now up on the door, it just took a lot of effort to put it there! Caleb doesn't dare hang his heavy leather coat on it yet...

I have never burned so many things in my life! Everybody just keeps telling me it's my oven, it's my oven, but I don't know... sheesh! I've burned cookies, muffins, butter, grilled cheese, garlic bread (I'm not sure I should be flaunting this list of burnt things around...) Okay, well, anyway, I made a goal not to burn anything all week... and you know, I think I've done a pretty good job! At least I haven't set the smoke detector off in a while... ahem. 

I've started reading The Hunger Games, in fact, I'm on the second one now, Catching Fire, and the third book should hopefully be here by Thursday (Ooh, that's tomorrow!!!)

Well, I think I'm going to start a new tradition...
1. Best dinner since the last post
2. Most exciting thing since the last post
3. Something else I can't think of right now... Any ideas???

Well, the best dinner I've made was probably the Parmesan Chicken (thanks aunt Becky!) and potatoes.
And the most exciting thing that's happened...tending Gwen for an hour today was super fun, the hook is up!, Caleb is taking me to Olive Garden next week, and... seeing Tron: Legacy.

I think that's about it for now, folks! (hehe) Thanks for reading and I'll see you all again soon!
