Thankful Thursday – Red doors, CHEESE and long dresses

September 2nd, 2010

Hi Friends!

Last night’s house tour was a BUST ;( I was super upset about it, but I’m moving on — guess it just wasn’t meant to be! But we are forging on and actually looking at another place this evening — now that I’ve learned not to get my hopes up, I’m hoping that I don’t leave too disappointed. However, this place has a RED DOOR and that makes me smile ;)

Anyway, despite my minor disappointment, there is still much to be thankful for this week, so please join me in compiling our lists.

This week, I’m thankful for…

Jimmy John’s Skinny Chips – I know, they have fillers and all that junky stuff, but I don’t care, they are ABSOLUTLEY delicious

My upcoming adventure with Beringer Wine!

The upcoming three day weekend

All the celebrations in store – the Mister’s birthday is Monday — you know what that means…CAKE and ZA! ;)

Fiber One Cottage Cheese

Maxi dresses (you’ll see it tomorrow on Fashion Friday!)

My Mister, who makes my every day that much better (cue the CHHHHHEEEESE!)

What are you thankful for this week?

Thankful Thursday – Avocado rolls, acoustic CDs and POPSICLES

August 19th, 2010

Good morning!

Is it pathetic that I live for the weekends? Don’t get me wrong, the Mister and I certainly make some fun during the week and schedule things to look forward to, but just knowing the *real* weekend is around the corner makes my heart sing. Another thing that makes it easier to get through the week is stopping to think about all the great “stuff” that happened. Sure, it’s not the weekend, but I’m sure you’ve had many moments of laughter, love and smiles. Let’s all take a moment to thank LIFE for handing us those moments.

This week, I’m thankful for…

The decreased humidity

Brown rice avocado rolls

The opportunity to catch up with old friends

Unexpected kisses

New opportunities (I have big news to share with you guys soon! — p.s. work people, stop freaking out, this has nothing to do with my current job or leaving it for any reason)

The new Taking Back Sunday acoustic CD

Strawberry Popsicles

Real, scrambled eggs and buttered whole wheat toast with turkey bacon – my FAVORITE thing to make for breakfast – I simply swoon at the thought!

The Little ;)

What are YOU thankful for this week? Please share, reading your marvelous lists always puts a smile on my face ;)
