Lovely Little Things {or my weekly fruit intake}

February 11, 2013

If you are one of those people who gets angry when people Instagram their food, I strongly encourage you to stop reading this post immediately. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Hello birds and boots. I threw a nesting shower for my friend, Jordan. Details to come. 
The party was fantastic, but I was so tired afterward that I plopped myself down on the couch for a 
few minutes before finally surrendering to a three hour nap in my bed.

Hello toddler photos. We are so blessed to live by my cousins and their sweet children… including two year old Tyce, 
who got a hold of my iPhone and snapped some very attractive eating pics during dinner.

Hello fruit. This is the segment of the post where I show you the healthy food I’ve been eating this week.
I’m on a serious kick lately kick recently. These were gifted to us from our friend’s backyard.
Hello truth. And now comes the part where I admit that despite my fruit intake, Micah and I have been eating out way more than we usually do. I convinced him to take me to free pancake night at iHop, 
and then we each “accidentally” ordered take out for dinner on the very next night.

And we’ve hung out with some of our favorite friends lately, which has included gorging ourselves on 
Rudy’s BBQ and snacking on ice cream at the Phoenix Open.
The end. Next time I might post non-food related photos, but I can’t make any guarantees.

    Cute nesting snacks! I've seen them made out of pretzels on Pinterest, but I like yours better – they look tastier, too. 🙂

    Also, I know it's corny, but I nominated you for an award. You can read about it here. http://ow.ly/hNxZe

Hi. I’m Jen Russum and this blog is where I’ve been sharing narratives of God’s grace for more than a decade now. Some might say “blogs are dead” but I’m waiting for them to come back around like mom jeans and 90s flannel. I enjoy my coffee iced, my summers hot, and my dinner parties long with lots of laughter. I process all of life’s deepest, darkest, and happiest moments by writing essays in my head. When I have the time, some of these essays get typed up and shared here. I’ve always loved to write, and I hope my words bring you joy and encouragement.
