I’ve been in a bit swept up in travel lately. First, you know I went to San Antonio. Then earlier this week, I made my yearly trip to Wisconsin for the 4th of July (photos coming soon!) Now, today, I am heading up to New York for three days to celebrate the boyfriend’s birthday.
Phewie!
But I’ve got some exciting news for you as well…I’ve been offered a new position in my department, which will include a lot MORE travel! The last promotion was exciting, but this one is even better. I’m about to really get my fund raising career rolling.
All this to say, I’ve been busy, but I’m sorry for the blog neglect! Hopefully lots of great photos and travel stories will be coming your way soon. Meanwhile, please let me say Happy Belated 4th to you via this guy…

Today rivals Christmas in the competition for Megster’s Favorite Holiday. Last year, I got some fun shots in my hometown. This year, I will be home for exactly 2 1/2 days, but plan to make the most of it. I leave you with a recap of last year’s trip!

1 (3-oz.) package cream cheese, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 1/2 c. milk
1 T. sugar 1 c. fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 tsp. vanilla 1/2 c. chopped nuts
1/4 tsp. salt Powdered sugar
6 eggs Blueberry or maple syrup
10 slices (1 inch thick) French bread, cut into 1 inch cubes
Generously grease a 2 1/2 quart casserole or 9 x 13 baking dish. Beat flour, milk, sugar, vanilla, salt and eggs in a large bowl by hand until smooth. Stir in bread cubes until coated.
