Throwback Thursdays

Someone please tell me you remember these. (source) Kitty kitty kittens. I was OBSESSED. I am 99% sure my mom still has a shopping bag full of these in her attic. Sorry mom. In case you have no clue what I'm going on and on about don't remember these, they were the best thing ever in the early 90's. Me and my BFF collected them, and had to have every kind. Her collection was way bigger than mine though, so I was a borderline jealous bitch at the tender age of 6. They "purred" when you shook them. Read more [...]

Blueberry Muffins

You didn't think I'd go on and on about my grandma's blueberry muffins without sharing a recipe did you? Before I get to that, let's get my daily workout out of the way. Work it Out Since I felt like I'd clocked in a decent amount of miles running this weekend, I decided to take a day off from the treadmill at the gym today.

A Weekend Away

Memorial Day Weekend was a great kick-off to the summer! I meant to post while I was away, but I'm a space cadet and forgot my iPhone computer cord. Who wants to read a post without pictures? Not me.

This is what my Friday mornings now look like: Every. Single. Week. HELP. Is avoiding weight loss sabotage a legitimate reason to work from home? Because it should be. Please note that the above picture was taken before I dove face first into the chocolate chip muffin. You'd think my indulgence last night would be enough to satisfy my sweet tooth. No such luck. That bitch is insatiable. Yes, my sweet tooth is a girl, and yes, she's a total bitch. Anyway. Work it Out At least I made it to the Read more [...]

Throwback Thursdays (on Friday, oops)

I dare you not to finish these song lyrics. "Whatever happened to predictability..." "It's a rare condition...in this day in age..." "The dream got broken, seemed like all was lost..." "When I wake up in the morning and the 'larm gives out a warning..." "What would you do if I sang out of tune..." At least, my friends and I could not resist when we were walking to the bar last weekend. We decided to spice things up a bit, and went to a place that was more of a 20 minute walk, compared to the Read more [...]
