THE NITTY GRITTY
HELLO

Hi. I'm Amanda...a happy wife and mom to three awesome guys. We've lived here in Fort Collins for more than 20 years and are proud to call it home. Before moving to CO, I worked at a city attorney's office, making use of my law and Master's degrees from Duke. After settling in Fort Collins, I homeschooled my three (now teenage and older) sons and was delighted to experience music classes, soccer, karate, swim team, archery, Science Olympiad, First Lego League, parkour, and climbing (not all at the same time!). From 2005-10, I was also a contributing editor for a national scrapbooking magazine, authoring a book and a couple of monthly columns. From 2009-10, I founded and ran the Good Grief Blog. I enjoy learning new things, spending time with my family, volunteering with The Matthews House, traveling and indoor rock climbing.

26 years and a day

DateThursday, March 15, 2018 at 04:47PM

Yesterday, March 14, was the 26th anniversary of the day Nathan and I met. :) We went out to dinner (just the two of us) on Tuesday but spent most of Wednesday apart, with Nathan at work and me taking boys to the dentist and karate. But. In honor of Pi Day and our anniversary, the boys and I met up with Nathan at Waltzing Kangaroo for some delicious meat pies and dessert.

I was rather hungry so didn't manage to get a picture of the meat pies, lol, but took this one of our desserts:

(two custard tarts, a profiterole, a salted caramel slice and a mini apple pie)

And that's how we celebrated. :) Yummy!

How in the world do you know what a profiterole is? That has got to be the hardest word in the dictionary for a dessert. I'm dumbfounded. Did you make that up? I think you did:)
