I would love this cookbook! So exciting!

YAAAAYYYY Gavi! Email me your address and I’ll make sure your cookbook is sent out!

It’s Friday! — but no fashion (yet!)…

Good morning, everyone! HAPPY FRIDAY!

It is 4:40 am here and I’m getting ready to come back to the East Coast. I can’t wait to see my Mister and family tonight!

I have some bad news, which actually may result in some good news for you slackers out there.

My computer died.

How am I writing to yo then, you ask? Have I entered into a phantom-like state (I am a witch after all ;) ) where I am able to infiltrate the technology airwaves? No, UM, I WISH. I simply using the hotel lobby computer.

Anyway, that means I am unable to upload and post all your fashion Friday entries! I have some really good ones, too! So you decide, should I post them tomorrow (which is a Saturday and just feel weird to me?) or should I hold off a week, give those slackers some extra time to enter, and post them next Friday? You tell me!

I will be posting the winner of the cookbook giveaway TONIGHT.

Well, I’m off to the airport for a 6 hour trek back to Cleveland! I’m sorry blogging has been a little off while I’ve been traveling! I promise I’ll get my act together when I get home and settled – thanks for bearing with me ;)

P.S. – HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM, I love you so much! I can’t wait to celebrate with you tonight ;)

P.P.S. – My birthday is tomorrow! Is it lame that I still get giddy with excitement over my birthday?! (I think not!)

Thankful Thursday – Another year older…

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Have you entered the cookbook giveaway yet? If not, you’ll want to get on that.

Sorry for my lack of Daily Delish yesterday, once I landed in LA I was totally friend and I’m sure any post I would have put together would have made you all think I’m even crazier than I already am!

Now that I have had a good night’s sleep in my oh-so-comfortable bed, I’m ready to embrace the day.

This week I am thankful for another amazing year. Yes, in light of my upcoming Halloween birthday, I would like to thank the Mister, my parents and God for giving me yet another incredible year in this crazy world.

Some highlights:

Getting my Master’s degree

Taking trips with the Mister

Starting the blog!

Race for the cure with my mom

Celebrating every holiday and special event with those I love most.

Thank you mom and dad, for everything. You are the reason I have become the woman I am today and I couldn’t be more thankful for your guidance and support you’ve provided every single day of my existence.

Mister — thank you for making me a better person and for making each day I’m with you better than the next. Here’s to getting old together…

I cannot wait to see what year 25 has in store! I’m now a quarter of a century! BRING IT!

Make sure you remember to email your Fashion Friday photos! Send all emails by midnight tonight for a chance to win!

What are you thankful for this week?

Work it Wednesday – In the news…

I’m headed to LA this afternoon (hopefully it is better than my last trip to the west coast!), so I am going to make this quick. I’ll be gone until Friday evening, but I’ll be blogging! When I get back on Friday the Mister and I are meeting my family for a celebratory dinner (my Mom’s birthday is on Friday and mine is on Saturday – ie HALLOWEEN! – yes I am a little witch ;) ). Saturday morning, the the Mister and I are heading to Chicago to celebrate my birthday in style.

I’ll be sure to keep all of you in the loop along the way.

First things first, have you entered the cookbook giveaway yet? I’ll announce the winner on Friday.

Second.. have you sent me your photos for Fashion Friday? Remember this is the week of the CONTEST! Email me your photos by midnight on Thursday.
