First Two Weeks of the New Year

Pin itI can’t believe it is already January 17th. I feel like the past few weeks have been as much of a blur as the holidays. Since I have been fighting a cold for the past few weeks and am in no frame of mind to attempt writing a real post I thought I would…

Sleeping through the New Year

Pin itHappy New Year! I am still recovering from a 9 day Christmas/New Years trip to California….where I turned out the lights and went to bed at 11:52 PM in New Years Eve. No, I could not wait 8 more minutes to ring in the new year. I am truly looking forward to this weekend…

Space Cadet

Pin itApparently the holidays (yes, I am going to blame it on the holidays) are making me a complete space cadet. I am normally so organized with my to do lists and putting things in their place however in the past 4 days I have: – Written and published a Tuesday Things post on Monday,…

Tuesday Things | Christmas 2011 edition

Pin itIt has been a while since I did Tuesday things and thought I would use this Tuesday to get you caught up. Edited to add: I just realized that it is not Tuesday. Hah! I am not sure how I managed to get it so wrong. I could try to play it off that…

Tuesday Things | October 18th

Pin itDid you miss me last week? My schedule got changed up at the store and completely threw me off my blogging schedule. That and I decided I was bored with What I Ate Wednesday and What I Wore Thursday. I figure that if I am bored with it so are you. 1. A couple weekends ago…

What I Wore Thursday

Pin itThis week was one of those weeks that I just didn’t care….or maybe I cared and just didn’t try. Not about my clothes at least. I did watch a tutorial on how to curl my hair, which I did care enough about to give it a shot. The most effort I put into my…

Not in Kansas anymore

Pin itI can’t think of a better way to have spent my birthday weekend than visiting my parents. Since their move in July, my parents have been scoping out the local eateries and activities in preparation for our visit. Per the usual, most of the photos I have are of all of the delicious eats….

Tuesday Things on Monday

Pin itFor some reason I feel like I have a lot of random things to say today so here goes Tuesday Things a day early. 1. All feels right with the world (or my life, at least) when I can do my Sunday after shop and cook for the week. Meals for this week are:…
