Temperatures dipped briefly below sixty degrees today. What did I do in celebration? Over-committed to thick wool sweater and started making plans. Quick sidebar: The cashier at Central Market this evening asked me if I was enjoying this cool weather and I promptly confessed my sweater-related mistake. She said that she’d done much, much worse […]
The only people that will find this post remotely entertaining are people that know me (and my husband) personally. I get it – limited appeal. But this cracked me up. Dinner this evening was gross. Just disgusting. Long story short, we uncovered some old Lean Cuisines in the freezer and decided to give them a […]
Some days I can’t wait to get to the gym. Others, not so much. Today wasn’t too bad, but I was so glad to have a playlist full of upbeat music to get me really going. Here are some of my favorites these days – let me know what you think! No Excuse November Cardio […]
{Image Source} Between work, home, and my iPhone in between, I spend a lot of time on the internet. Too much. But I love it. It’s entertaining and useful. And a little bit dangerous. So I’m putting myself on restriction. Things I need to Google Less Puppies. Cute, furball, yellow Labrador puppies especially. The Kanes […]
Wow. In some ways I cannot believe it’s already NOVEMBER. In other ways, I can totally believe it. 2012 has been overwhelming in the most wonderful and most stressful ways. Sometimes very, very difficult, but without exception it’s been positive. Sometimes growing pains are uncomfortable, yes? Job changes, losing old friends, losing our Sweet Gussie, […]
This weekend we said goodbye to our sweet Gus. He was such a wonderful dog and we are devastated, but so very thankful for the time we had with him. Gussie channeled our every emotion and hated nothing more than for one of us to be upset. So instead of crying as I write, I’m […]
This weekend brought with it a trip to Texas Wine Country! A belated birthday celebration for my friend Carrie, a group got together to drink our way through the Hill Country. Our first stop was Pedernalas Cellars in Stonewall, Texas just outside of Fredricksburg. A beautiful Fall-ish Sunday afternoon, a group of lovely ladies, a […]
The fiercest photo you’ll see all week: Photo of the Day: National Geographic There is simply not enough electric cello in my life I have a spaghetti squash taunting my from the kitchen counter as we speak. Prepare to die. Sadly, my favorite La Condesa creation, the Raspberry Lemonade cocktail, is not on this list.
Say hello to one of my very good reasons for lack of posts recently – my super-cute nephew Campbell. He’s a teething, drooling machine, but with those sweet cheeks and blue eyes, who could possibly mind the slobber? Here is Camp with my Daddy (his Pop) at The River Market in Tuscaloosa last weekend. I’m […]
This post has been sitting – unfinished – for more than a week. And it’s not an earth-shattering piece on anything important. It’s Links. Quite possibly the easiest type of post to write. But we’ve been a bit distracted. This guy – Gussie – the love of my life (don’t worry, my husband is a […]
