Well. What a week! But it’s FRIDAY people, yay!

So, I’m late on getting this post written. Let’s get started!

This week…

1. I moved to Worpress. (Eek!) What do you all think? (That is, if you can see it. Sigh.)

Overall, it hasn’t been that bad of a move. There is a HUGE learning curve with WordPress. And, I’m a stressball on a normal day…so the past four days I have been a little…um…crazy. There are still some bugs I need to work out but I’m hoping that by tonight at least everyone will be able to see it.

{Speaking of bugs…if you’ve ever had an issue sharing posts to Facebook where no image showed up…please let me know what you did to fix it!}

And I have to give a huge thanks to Lisa from Sweet 2 Eat Baking. She patiently held my hand and IM’d with me yesterday to fix a few problems. Thank you Lisa! I owe you cookies and a hug.

And, once I’m comfortable in my new diggs, I plan to write some posts on the why, what, and how of switching to WordPress, because I’ve gotten so many questions!

Thank you all for being patient with me the past few days!

2. This week I still managed to make you fatter treats.

I made you blondies filled with pie and irony.

I made you cookies with my weird hands.

And I made you something skinny. (I know, I was shocked too.)

3. I posted this picture on Instagram a few days ago.

Who knew I would get so many comments about it? I have always frozen bananas, right in their skins. I freeze them when they get too tired to eat. When I’m ready to use them in banana bread or whatever, I let them thaw in the fridge, snip off the tops and squeeze out the innards. (They get mushy…but are still fine to bake with.)

4. Jordan played dress up last weekend. With my old uniform.

5. Thursday was a hard day, so I decided we needed some after school pick-me-up.

6. This weekend I’m going to try and get caught up. What are you up too?

Sorry for the shortness of this! I’m late getting Jordan to school, eek! Again, thanks for all the patience with me this week, and for all your kind words about my new site! 🙂 Y’all rock and I hope you have the best weekend eeeevah.

Kisses!

Dorothy 🙂

  1. Dorothy! You site looks great! I am loving your instagram feed at the bottom! So cool! Sometimes I noticed if I use the “Get Short Link” button to grab my code and paste that in Facebook, it wont show up. So now I just use the full URL code to get a snipet. Otherwise I just upload a picture to Facebook and link up the post in the status. Is that what you’re talking about? Does that even make sense?? LOL – it’s been a long day. 🙂

    1. Yes, totally makes sense! I think it had something to do with my feed still being transferred from blogger. So far, it’s working now. Thanks Shawn!

  2. That frozen caramel pie looks amazing! Never thought about freezing bananas. What is that delicious looking Starbucks drink in front??!!? I want one right now 🙂

  3. I am very excited to hear how you did it. Also, how you are still showing up in my dashboard! That is my one thing keeping me from moving over to WordPress — I mostly read the blogs that show up on my blogger dashboard and I want to keep myself present in others’ dashboards. Hope you get it all figured out soon! LOOKS GREAT!

    1. That’s great – I’m so glad to hear it! The lady who switched me wasn’t sure how those feeds would work, and I’m glad they did!! Thanks for letting me know.

  4. At first I was sad thinking you were ending your blog (because it’s one of my favorites)…I’m glad it was just a makeover. I love the new website!

  5. Dorothy, Your new “home” is fabulous! It really looks great and so streamline! My blog is in the middle of a re-do also:) I always have bananas in the freezer that look JUST like yours:) Have a wonderful weekend!

  6. I have bananas like that all the time in my freezer! I used them in my protein shakes. I think moving to wordpress for me is like when Rob get’s a hair cut, I just don’t notice unless it’s all wrong. So you are all good! Have a great weekend!

  7. Congrats on the move to WP, Dorothy! I’ll definitely need to stay tuned when you write about that switch, as it is something I’m contemplating too!
