Made For Us
A newly married 20-something High School English teacher from New Jersey (currently lost in the Midwest) who likes to read, cook, listen to jazz, write, design, & dream of world travel with my graphic designing husband.
I am all about trying to eat/cook healthy, have date nights, and enjoy life on a humble teacher's salary. This is a hodgepodge of recipes, teaching anecdotes, dreams, and budget ideas of a young educator.

When I need a good cry, Undercover Boss is one of those shows I know I can turn to and without a doubt, it will have me crying by the last ten minutes.
Undercover Boss Canada is on Netflix streaming, which I just finished this evening. While watching, all I can think of is Robin Scherbatsky on HIMYM and how they’re always making fun of her for being Canadian and how nice Canadians are…

Quote reblogged from Felicia's MelangeCreating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive. Ambition is only understood if it’s to rise to the top of some imaginary ladder of success. Someone who takes an undemanding job because it affords him the time to pursue other interests and activities is considered a flake. A person who abandons a career in order to stay home and raise children is considered not to be living up to his potential-as if a job title and salary are the sole measure of human worth. You’ll be told in a hundred ways, some subtle and some not, to keep climbing, and never be satisfied with where you are, who you are, and what you’re doing. There are a million ways to sell yourself out, and I guarantee you’ll hear about them.Bill Watterson (via mikekarnell)

I finally gave in, and we watched The Office series finale.
I cried much, much, much more than laughed. It was an ultimately satisfying resolve to the only show into which I’ve ever invested this much emotion. I could sob again just thinking about it. As I go through the seasons one after another on Netflix, as is my custom (my previous custom was just watching the DVDs one right after another until Netflix came along), I still sob during Michael Scott’s last episode, so I can only imagine what will happen to me throughout this entire ninth season when Netflix acquires it later this fall. The penultimate episode where Dwight proposes on the side of the road is one of my favorite moments of the entire series…
