I’ll really miss pizza and beer and bourbon and nut butter I’ll wish I could have gone on my honeymoon I’ll be happy I ate the icing off the top of a cupcake from the teacher’s lounge I’ll be glad I saw my parents and one last live Duke bball game last night I’ll wish I had spent more money on other people and fun events I expect Bill Pullman to come and save me I hope I’m with Matt…

Lovely – Ecto ate another post. AHHHHHHHH. The gist: I went to a holiday party and ate pizza. I tried to run with the pizza in my stomach and it jiggled around too much. I organized all the Christmas gifts I’ve purchased with bags and tissue. I enjoy the challenge of shopping for gifts even when I’m baffled about what to buy. I know a lot of people are moving towards not exchanging gifts to save time and money, but…
I just saw my first falling star in years! I enjoy a good liquor-filled chocolate, but this one was super strong. I had to pour some of the brandy out of the middle. Don’t tell. I discussed the Christmas menu with my parents tonight and got super excited – one week and one day to go! How about the weather lately. I LOVE the south!!! I can’t even remember life before goat cheese. Date night tomorrow. Woo hoo.…
The thing I’m looking forward to the most this weekend is sleeping past seven. Now that the pumpkin roll, apple crisp, and white chocolate peppermint popcorn are finally gone, maybe I can stop pigging out after dinner. I firmly believe there are ‘easy’ and ‘hard’ treadmills. Since my gym got new ones, I’ve shaved a minute off my mile time with absolutely no effort. Why? I’m so so bad at cleaning my shower. How do people get them to be…
An apple crisp just came out of the oven!!! I’m thinking about skipping the Christmas tree this year:( Matt’s always at school and I just don’t feel the need to put one up for myself when we are spending Christmas at my parents house. Is that Grinch-like and too un-festive? What about you? The senior [business school] prom is this weekend! We’re hosting a pre-party and I couldn’t resist buying this giant bottle of wine from TJ’s. I’m obsessed with…
I think the Boston wind damaged my hair. Or maybe it was the ten years of blow drying. I also can’t understand why I have split ends the week after I get my hair cut. Either way, I’ve noticed that my ‘underneath’ hair is in bad shape. And since it’s my wedding year and I have an excuse to worry about frivolous things that don’t really matter, I decided to take charge of this hair situation and challenge myself to…
After a crazy weekend, I was in desperate need of a night on the couch. So far, so good:) I wanted to cook something above average, and this recipe for pistachio & goat cheese chicken popped into my head. Kath discovered it years ago, and it’s one of my very favorites! I remember I used to buy those little packages of chicken tenders because they were the cheapest chicken available. These days, I can buy a whole breast! So, these…
I saw Argo on Sunday and really enjoyed it. And I loved Ben’s new look:) I heart America! I need a weekly show [not House Hunters] Found this in the grocery store…a little different but so tasty with pita chips: After all the talk of tea in the comments [thanks guys!}, I had a hot cup of peppermint this afternoon! I have kind of a big problem with hydration and tea helps with that too There’s something very attractive about…
When I can’t think of anything interesting to say, I always look back through all the pictures I’ve taken, hoping they might inspire words. It usually doesn’t work, but old pictures sure are interesting…. …
