We survived another first birthday. Yay! Glad to have that over with, I was really looking forward to it, but it is nice to have that done. I love having a bunch of family over, but I still have to remind my husband to help me not freak out. Sometimes even the good and fun things are stressful.
Someday, when I quit my job, I'll make personalized everything. And you'll be blown away. I could make a style guide for every birthday. Tie the balloons just so... But today (or yesterday) was not that day. But who knew, we still had a good time. Anyways, enough rambling. Here are some of the things we did do.
We Ate:
Korean Beef and Rice. I found the recipe in this magazine. It's one of my favorites.
I was pretty nervous to make this. Believe it or not, my Dad is a picky eater (sorry Dad). And I was pretty nervous to make something that wasn't one of my mom or mother-in-laws already tried and true recipes. But Micah convinced me "it's your house, you can make whatever you want". So I did. And I loved it. However.. I forgot to take photos.
I'm super into steaming vegetables right now and I found this handy dandy chart with all the answers. It's also where I got the idea for steamed carrots seasoned with honey, ginger and cinnamon. It was a great side to go along with the beef and rice.
We also made these beauties. For a second I thought I should take more photos of them or like post directions or something. But there's no need when Ree Drummond already done it for you, am I right?
Here's the rest of what we did in pictures. Enjoy.
