Friday Five - Welcome to Spring!


Happy Friday! How was your week? Mine has been really busy, I am so happy it's Friday!

I'm Linking up with the Friday five 2.0 ladies at Fairytales and Fitness and Running on Happy .


 
I'm just going to tell you 5 random things about this week.

1. The Snow- We had a surprise snow storm on the first day of spring! I know many around here were not fans of the snow, but personally I loved it! My son had off from school, my office closed and we enjoyed sleeping in.
 
 
 

2. Sledding - I had never gone sledding in my life! It sounded and looked terrifying, but the hill we were doing looked pretty steep and I wanted to test it before I sent my son down on it. It was hilarious! I fell out of the made up sled, and rolled right back in and kept going. I couldn't stop laughing.

 
3. This Peanut Butter chocolate crumb cake!! When I was in High School, our piano teacher used to make us a peanut butter chocolate crumb cake after our piano recitals... whether we were amazing, or completely messed up Prelude in C Major, the crumb cake was amazing!! Years after I had graduated, I emailed her to tell her that her crumb cake was one of the most amazing food I had tasted. She emailed me the recipe. We made it on the snow day, and it still tasted as amazing as I remember it.



4. Doctor Who- My son and I started watching Doctor Who again! I binged watch this show in 2012 and LOVED it! My son was too little at the time to watch it with me, but we are not starting it again. I know he is a whinny actor, but my favorite is Doctor is Christopher Eccleston.



5. Spring Break- My son's spring break starts next week, and I'm excited for those few days of rest. I am looking forward to our breakfast and lunch plans.


How was your week?

  1. I couldn't believe that we got snow this week too! I didn't mind as it allowed me to work from home and really the roads were just fine. Just some prettiness on the lawns.

    1. How much snow did you get ? We had about 12 inches here, and it looked like a winter wonderland. We enjoyed it so much! it's almost all melted now.

  2. We got snow too. I don't mind it too much since I can work remotely if needed. I hate being out driving in the snow. That cake sounds amazing!

    1. I don't like driving on the snow either! But I love it when it snows during the week, because it gives me an excuse to take off from work without feeling guilty.

  3. I am happy to report no snow. :) So sick of snow. There's still snow on the ground from the first 3 storms, but hopefully it will melt soon.

    I used to love sledding as a kid -- haven't done it as an adult.

    Enjoy your spring break!

    1. Our snow is almost gone, it has been sunny and that has melted everything already.

      We are going to buy a real sled for next winter.

    1. No, I had never. The thought of going on a piece of plastic down a hill terrified me. but it is a lot of fun, I will likely do it again.

      I'll share the recipe in the future.. I promise.

    1. No, it really scared me before. I don't know why. I don't like snow touching me, so that was a huge reason why.

      We went right around my place, there is this huge hills and we had them all to ourselves.

      Thursday to Monday only? Why so short? I'm not even going to tell you how long ours is.
