I Never Liked This Apple Much

City love. That's what I'm slowly learning to do. Instead of doing some DIY projects the other day while I waited for my delicious Reese's Peanut Butter Bars to set, I decided to head down to the farm for a bit. I learned two things while I was driving:

  1. You absolutely CANNOT turn left off of my street around 3:30. Unless you're okay with taking your life into your own hands, then maybe you could. 
  2. As much as living in town drives me crazy, I need to embrace it all while I'm still here. It won't be like this for long and one day, I will think back to our cozy condo days and miss them so much. So I have decided to enjoy the city living a little bit more. There actually is something quite glorious about being so laid back and living in a busy town. You get more satisfaction out of where you are and where you're planning on going!
So, needless to say, my baking yesterday was 'hubby approved.' We could have eaten the entire pan ourselves, but we decided to spread the enjoyment out over a few days!

Today, I spent 8 hours in class. Yes, 8 hours. I'm getting my Pesticide License for work. I will soon be a certified pesticide dispenser. The more I've gotten into studying pesticides though, the more concerned I have become about using them myself. Chemicals are scary stuff. Even though I've grown up on a farm where the usage of pesticides is frequent, and it's always in a controlled manner, I think that I will try to avoid using them when I have my own farm someday.

Also, my husband may have found me a diamond harrow! (If you don't know what this is, then google it!) This may sound weird to some people, but I'm so excited to have a nicely levelled, well footed arena for my horses. I'm going to see him a bit later tonight and go for a tractor ride. 

And on that note, I leave you with some songs (no pun intended!) 
They're pretty good reminders to enjoy this very moment that you're in. 



And one tractor picture! So excited for my tractor ride!! 

Oh and PS: for those of you who don't understand the title, its from a John Mayer song called "City Love"
