Sunday Lovin'

Hey Everyone! I'm back with some Sunday Lovin'. Read on to see what I am loving this week :)

1.) Choclo:
I LOVE the gigantic corn here. It's called Choclo. And it is awesome. It's pretty fun to eat and with a little bit of queso. Yum!! Definitely makes me excited for some fresh sweet corn and mint tea this summer. But for now the gigantic corn is doing just fine. ha.
Yum, yum! Giant corn!

2.) Countdown: I may--or may not--have a countdown on my computer desktop counting down the days until Kyle gets here. hmm. Probably not the best idea :) But it is exciting to see the number of days get smaller. And what I LOVE is that the first night that I set-up the countdown I went back to look at it and the moment I read it, this is what it said: "22 days, 22 hours, 22 minutes, 22 seconds". Weird, right?!? But I thought it was pretty cool.

Hey Kyle, get your booty down here! :)

3.) Burger King: I think it's so fun that we went to the mall's food court for our weekly post-church lunch, today. We all were able to pick whatever food we wanted. Millie and I went for the classic cheeseburger and fries and settled on the one-and-only Burger King. Yuuum. I loved it. Now I only wish that they didn't have such a scary mascot.
This guy seriously freaks me out!


This also reminded me of the list I have been making in my head for the food I want to eat. I'll just make note of it on this blog so that ya'll know where to take me when I get home :)
-Chipotle Burrito
-Wings from BWs
-El Camino (Actually, ANY mexican food will do)
-Chipped beef on toast
-Long John donut from the Essenhaus
-Arby's curly fries and Jamocha shake
-Chicken breast supreme
...Start making plans, friends. I'll be home soon :D

4.) Easter Break: I am WAY excited for this next week, because my Friday is on Wednesday. We have Thursday and Friday off of work because of Easter weekend. Like I said earlier, we were thinking of making plans to go somewhere, but at this point people are feeling a little stressed about school work and are probably just going to stick around Lima to catch up. Which is fine, because Hannah and I have a few things planned with some people from her work. And maybe we'll even find something fun to do over the weekend. Museums, anyone?! I'm excited for the break no matter what happens.

5.) Commute=life: I think I love that the commute to and from work just feels like it's a part of my life. It's just how it is and that's what we do :) Even if it does take 1 hour and 30 minutes to go 10 miles. Who cares! That's life. I like to say..."asi es la vida"..."such is the life". So I am glad that this part of my day feels less like a frustration! But there are some days... :)

Sooo. That's what I'm loving on this week. We have a trivia night coming up at work and are still working out a few details for the last week of April (Not by my choice...) and then it will be May. So so crazy! Then it's wrapping up details and transferring all my files onto the work computer so they have access the work I have done so far. And then I'll be off the Machu Picchu! Yippee!

I hope everyone had a great weekend and that you are looking forward to another exciting week!

Special shout-out to my cousin Lindsy and NEW cousin Joe, who got married this weekend!! I am so excited for you guys and, of course, sad I couldn't be there. But I will be home soon to properly congratulate you :) Hope your day was everything and more! Love you both.
