Currently: September + October

Hey y’all!  So, since I didn’t get a “currently” post out for September, and it’s already pretty much 2/3rds the way through October (HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?!), I figured that I’d just go ahead and combine the two months into one post :)  So here’s what I’m currently up to…

Reading… Daring to Hope by Katie Davis Majors.  Katie’s book Kisses from Katie is my favorite book so of course I’m absolutely loving this new book too!

Perfecting… four piano pieces, including Clair de Lune, for a piano competition in a week and a half.  But please, I need more time! :P

Starting… on Christmas music – because why not?! :)

Eating… ice cream!  This photo commemorates the first day I had ice cream after abstaining from it a whole month :)

Concocting… a strawberry chocolate tart.  OH MY GOODNESS.  It’s sitting in the fridge right now, waiting to be consumed after dinner, and it looks absolutely amazing (the picture above was quickly snapped with an iPhone 4 and doesn't do it justice)!  If it tastes half as good as it looks, it’ll be a winner!  The recipe I used is here.

Missing… volleyball.  I am NOT ready for the season to be done! :(

Laughing… over this new game my younger siblings invented, called “dart-ball,” played with Nerf dart guns.  Sometimes siblings come up with the best games :)  Fun times!

Enjoying… cool mornings, 70-degree days, long sleeves.  Fall in the south is finally here, people!

Discovering… that despite the fact that I love these fall temperatures, my wardrobe is totally not ready for the cooler weather! :/

Smiling… because God is good, all the time.

What have you been up to lately?
