WOWZERS – thank you guys so much for all your book recommendations! I have a nice little summer reading list to look forward to now.

I was actually up and at ‘em pretty early this morning, as I’m heading up to St. Paul, Minnesota today, to see my brother graduate from Bethel Seminary! He will be receiving a Masters of Divinity degree. Umm, cool!

It’s been a long road to graduation day, and I don’t think any of us can believe it’s finally here. We couldn’t be prouder of him!

I packed some snacks for the road in lieu of a hot breakfast. It’s fun to snack while you’re driving long distances and helps beat the BOREDOM that comes along with car trips!

I’ve packed a nice colby jack cheese stick. I bought these because they were on sale at the store – but I really love ‘em and think I’ll keep purchasing. They’re such a no brainer snack. Just grab and go!

A Pink Lady Apple. To be eaten whole, which I don’t prefer, but what are you going to do…

And carrot chips with roasted flaxseed almond butter!

My Mom recently told me she thinks carrot chips are more fun to eat than their baby or regular sized counterparts. I have to say that I concur!

Plus, they’re easier for scraping out that luscious almond butter and licking it off. MMMMMMMMMMMM!!!

Time to hit the road. I think I may grab a Starbys on my way out of town – wheee!

Have a GREAT Saturday!

Where did you go or where are you currently going to college? What was your degree in?

I went to the University of Northern Iowa and majored in Marketing with an emphasis in sales and advertising. I think it was just last year that I finally stopped being depressed everyday that my college days were over. I LOVED it!!
