Friday Confessions

Whew. What a week! Work has been so busy lately that making it to Friday is always so much sweeter. Time to catch up on sleep, rest my eyes-oh wait we have a weekend at the casino so no rest for the weary (at least this weekend!). I, however, get by with a little help from these confessions:

I confess that I love caesar salad more than I know it should, since it's so "bad" for you, but I could eat it everyday if I had the choice (and unlimited supply of romain leaves and dressing).

I confess that I have an irrational fear of the oven door snapping up whenever I'm reaching in, even though I know it's not made that way. I have to hold it down with one hand and grab with the other. Makes for a humorous time when its a heavy pan and my poor left hand can't lift it up by itself.

I confess, out of sight out of mind I say! If I can't see the Girl Scout cookies I won't eat them. If I can't see bell pepper and onions then I can eat them in my enchiladas and enjoy without being weirded out but whole onions and peppers feeling in my mouth. Anyone else have these issues? 

I confess that even though I don't want to eat these Girl Scout cookies, I am SO glad they came. They taste so much better after having them hidden all week long. It was like I didn't know I was missing them until they are here. Strategically timed to coincide with everyone's "New Year Resolution to lose weight" and coming halfway through January to hit right where it hurts. I say jump back on the bandwagon when you're done with your Thin Mints. 

I confess that lately there has been no better feeling than coming home, putting on my onesie and snuggling on my bed as the house warms up. It's finally getting cold here, and this week it has been cloudy, dreary, and rainy, so it's perfect onesie weather.

Happy Friday, friends!

Honeymoon Part 1

Where to start, where to start? It's surreal to me how we've ALREADY been married over a week, AND that we've already been to the Bahamas and back :( The Bahamas (in Nassau to be exact) is such a beautiful place. It's the same island that has the Atlantis Resort on it, which we could see in the distance down the coast from our resort. We really picked the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. We left cloudy, rainy Dallas and Atlanta to sunshine and white sand, blue water, and 80 degree weather! It's so crazy to me that we've already been back from there after spending the week out of the country.  Obligatory newlywed plane selfie Monday morning came dark and early at 4am to catch our first flight out of DFW. I was proudly wearing my super comfy new "wifey" sweatshirt that my friend/bridesmaid Shohreh got me-thank goodness she stalks me on Pinterest ;) along with our brand spankin new wedding bands. Robert's ring looks so good against his ...

Sunday Confessions

Sooooo I meant to post these  Friday   Saturday  Sunday confessions a couple of days ago, but alas life happens. And it's been a chaotic week. Yay for warmer weather (sorta!) and Super Bowl Sunday but here's what I wanted to post on FRIDAY that I'm just getting around to. Blog fail. So I watched Grease Live! this past Sunday (as in a week ago now) and I can't stop thinking about it. And I may have watched it again...all 3 hours...twice. Did anyone else watch it? The original was an integral part of my childhood, and one of the only movies we watched over and over at my grandma's house, so it's one of my all time faves and I may have gotten a wee bit emotional at the end. The feeeeeels.   I was going to attempt to go do some of this "30 days sugar free!" nonsense starting beginning of February. Then I forgot that Valentine's Day was in a couple of weeks. And we have chocolate everywhere. And Girl Scout cookies. And then it was so and so's bi...

Winter is Coming..so is a Wedding!

Burrrr! Today is a balmy 40 degrees outside-and I'm definitely not ready for it despite my scarf-wearing, boot shopping fashion choices since September, hoping to "force" Fall to actually happening, but now that it's here: go away! Or at least just get a liiiitle bit warmer, so I can still have fun in my dozens of scarves and boots, but not freeze my ass off. Ka-peesh? My parents like to kindly remind me of what's to come in December, since we are going to the Army-Navy football game in Baltimore. Last year in Philly was just awful (and by awful I mean freezing, rainy, icy, cold, hungry, wet, sweaty, repeat) but a blasty blast being in a new city and living through new memories being made.  Any hoo-Even though I'm not snuggled up at home on this festive Veteran's Day (thank you to everyone who has served!), warm in my bed, I still wanted to touch on some wedding related topics: vendors. This could also be fun to read AFTER the wedding in April, to loo...
