I don’t know about you guys, but when I’m home I instantly go into vacation-mode! I’ve been eating out, shopping, and being all sorts of lazy…
I ended up going out to dinner with two of my best friends last night at the Cheesecake Factory and had two glasses of wine– something I [...]

Christmas!!!
We finally got our Christmas decorations up last night– just in time for me to leave this morning!! I’m going to be out of town until next Tuesday, so I won’t get to enjoy our decorations for a while, but at least I’ll come home to a warm, [...]

Happy Black Friday!!
We ended up fighting the crowds to do a little shopping this afternoon, but I came home empty-handed. We did a LOT of walking, though, so at least we got some exercise and sunshine!!!
I did get some ideas for the list I’m going to send to Santa this year…
To [...]

Good evening! Ready for Turkey (or Tofurkey) day??
I just got back from another movie night! (We tend to see a lot of movies during holiday vacations– I feel like we have a lot of catching up to do!) Tonight, we saw Fantastic Mr. Fox:
I loved it!! It’s an entertaining story for both adults and [...]

Good morning!!!!!
I’m SO excited for Thanksgiving vacation!! I’m officially DONE with work for the day, and my husband should be home in just a few hours (I love half-days at work)!! I’m hoping we’ll get some Christmas decorations up today or tomorrow, and maybe even get some early shopping done this afternoon! I [...]

Happy Tuesday! (a.k.a. the last FULL work-day before vacation!!)
I’ve had a busy morning so far– starting off with a visit from the cable guy! We finally HAD IT with our old DVR last night… it was being incredibly fickle! It recorded about 80% of the shows we asked it to, inevitably “forgetting” to [...]

Hey everyone!! Happy Monday evening!!!
My evening got here WAY faster than I would have liked… I ended up taking a two-hour nap after work today! I woke up and it was dark outside. Darn you, daylight savings!! Looks like maybe I should have a cup of coffee tomorrow morning… I seem [...]

It’s been far too long since I last used my Breville juicer:
After yesterday’s Dawsonsgiving splurge, I thought I’d get right back on track by making some green juice this morning. Green juice is a great post-splurge breakfast– it provides my body with lots of nutrients and enzymes, without all the fiber– so my [...]

Happy Sunday!
Or rather… Happy Dawsonsgiving!!!!!
We had an early morning here at our home– we had LOTS of cooking to do! I brewed up a big pot of coffee, and we got right to work.
Somehow I managed to slice my finger within two seconds of peeling my first potato…
Meanwhile, our friend, Brad, bravely got [...]
