I know, I know. That's a bit of a broad topic for a favorite, but bear with me. I did a study abroad there for 6 months during college, and recently a friend made on that trip was in town and it got me thinking and reminiscing and looking through photos. It's hard to...
It has been a WEEK. And I'm not stressing the number of days, but just the sheer full busy-ness of it. I am tired. So much so that I completely forgot to put together a Friday Favorites post. So you get this instead: How cute is she? All curled up by my office chair....
I am... absolutely loving the text mail notification service the post office now offers for my P.O. Box. No more wasted trips hoping for paychecks only to be disappointed by an empty box! still really tired, despite application of caffeine. I may have drunk too much...
I'm joining up with Ashley of After Nine to Five (and a bunch of other ladies!) for a little something called Blog Positivity Week. It's a week dedicated to focusing on all the good and positive things about being part of the ever-growing blog world, instead of the...

This past Wednesday was the annual Taste of Austin event. For those not in the know, it's a big foodie event that showcases Austin-area restaurants and caterers. You buy a ticket to get in the door, and then you wander around the many different booths, getting samples...
Right now, I am... still cringing over the fact that I had to de-skin two turkey thighs for the slow cooker meal we're having for dinner tonight. I hate touching raw meat; usually make the boyfriend do it. looking forward to date night with Ian (& Italian food)...
All this past week, despite intermittent rain showers, it remained near 70 degrees outside. I was planning with glee the outfit post I was going to shoot this Sunday, featuring a very cute dress. And then today, it is only 45 degrees out. I know, I know, for most of...
