This week at the Scott's.

Matt got his special "coaches picture." How adorable is this? He is coaching a 4th grade basketball team and they all loooove him, both the kids and their parents. The games are always very entertaining and it's especially fun because they don't keep score. Everybody wins! He'll be coaching the Jazz in no time. 

Power couple. We both left the house before 7:30 am on Thursday. Neither of us were wearing jeans, and neither of us were going to school. I wasn't even wearing a backpack. It all felt very professional. Matt was able to shadow a doctor all day, and I got to teach 7th grade! Being a grown up is fun, right?

Also, we had delicious breakfast burritos on Saturday morning. I discovered that if you put fried potatoes and salsa inside it doesn't even matter what your eggs taste like!

Super Bowl Sunday

We don't have TV in our lovely abode so our Super Bowl Sunday was nonexistent. However, we were able to watch the commercials on YouTube. These were our favorites. Which ones did you like?

More pictures...?

I'm not really into those ginormous posts that have 50 million pictures to scroll through. I find it hard to believe that anyone cares that much! However, I do have a Flickr account (mostly for the Moms) so if you want to take a peek at some honeymoon pictures, since that's the only thing that's up right now, email me at sarah.scott610@gmail.com and I'll add you to our "photostream." It's a pretty nifty thing actually. We'll try to keep it organized for ya :)

Channeling My Inner Julia

Last year, during my Julia and Julia obsession my dad surprised me with her entire works (Masterpiece of French Cooking Vol. I and II came a week later). I like reading them but I haven't had the courage to actually cook from them until now. French food can be scary, but French Bread seemed do-able. And it was a success!

 

Maybe I'll make a lobster next...or boeuf bourguignon. I'll need some recovery time though.

Bakers Dozen?

I have always wanted to be a good cook--you know, the kind of cook who makes a dinner that everyone is still raving about a week later? I think I can pinpoint this whole thing to July 2007, when the movie No Reservations came out. In 2009 Julie and Julia made it worse, and now I own way too many cookbooks, subscribe to way too many cooking blogs, and I'm one of those people who starts thinking about what to make for dinner three days in advance.

But here's the catch, I grew up helping my Mom cook for a family of ten. My mind automatically doubles a recipe... cutting it in half usually doesn't occur to me until the food is all cooked and I realize how long it will take to eat all of it. Luckily Matt likes leftovers!

Exhibit A:

Wayyy too many bran muffins.

Luckily they are supposed to last in the fridge for up to 6 weeks...

We are 90% sure that we like them.

At least they make us feel sort of healthy.

Once upon a time...we got married!

On December 21, 2010 Matt and I were sealed for time and all eternity in the Los Angeles Temple. It was such a miraculously wonderful, absolutely perfect day! We are so grateful to all of our friends and family for putting so much work into making the day special for us, and for taking the time and effort to come out to our sealing and reception, despite the horrible weather which gratefully eased up just in time for pictures! Things couldn't have been better :) Here are a few snapshots from the day...if you'd like to see the whole kit and caboodle just email me and I'll send you a Snapfish link! You can then have access to all 508 pictures. If you dare.
