This weekend was a blast! I had a conference in my field held here at a local university, and I had a wonderful time catching up with colleagues both local and beyond. It was the first time in two years that I saw my dissertation advisor, and it was really fun to catch up with her & my other colleagues.
Much of last week we also spent renovating our bathroom, so it was easy meals for us… ones with lots of leftovers!

Then, Sunday, we had a surprise 60th birthday party for my dad, who’s birthday is this week! It was wonderful to see all the people who love and care about my dad come to celebrate – and to enjoy ice cream sundaes and root beer floats on such a hot day.
Upcoming, this week will be fun too! We have a small group BBQ {timed perfectly after the 100 degree weather departs} and a fun weekend with our friends from graduate school. We plan to eat:
