relaxing 101 started this weekend. we finished up the moving on friday. phew. phew. phew. and are all settled at h-kun's folks' place for the next week.
i've been wanting to make these forever. peanut butter crispy bars. that smitten kitchen gal knows what she's doing. seriously.
time was spent saying goodbye to good friends. three different sets. over vietnamese lunch. over coffee. and tonight over air hockey. nothing wrong with a little game center fun to take the sadness away.
but. the best part of the weekend. by far. was talking to my little sister this morning. hours after she gave birth to my new little niece. welcome, baby joelle. whoohoo. i will meet you very soon. xo.

Congratulations with the birth of your little niece Joelle. Such a sweet name!
Times must be exciting for you and h-kun now! Saying goodbye to friends is never easy. But you will meet again. One day!

Oh, congratulations Auntie. There's a very welcome distraction from migration upheavals and the whole settling in thing to come.
