It’s Friday, friends! So how about a brain dump/favorite things post?
- Toddler Tuesday is set and it’ll begin this Tuesday. The talented Jenn at Munchkinland-Designs is designing a cute button for the occasion. I’m pretty excited to share the activity we did this week!
- I’m way behind on this trend but I picked up a pair of black booties at Target. I want to be brave and wear them with my skinnies but so far I’ve only worn them under dress pants. And you know what? They didn’t even kill me to wear them all day. Score.
-
Those New Years resolutions? Oh my. I don’t think I’ve ever had quite so many opportunities to eat out as I have in the last few weeks. All of this temptation is maddening and not even a resolution and the lack of diet coke in my life can make me turn down Mexican. But alas, I must. Our goal for February is to eat out only 1 time each week… we’ll see.
- Since last Thursday I’ve eaten a bowl of this popcorn every single day. If I gain weight this week I’m going to chalk it up to water retention from the insane of amount of sodium I’ve taken in this week. It’s just microwave popcorn and Cracker Barrel Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese shredded and melted over the top. I won’t tell you that I’ve eaten it for dinner 2 or 3 nights this week.
-
Regarding weight loss. My Fitness Pal has been instrumental to my motivation and accountability thus far. I’m down 5.4 since Christmas and 7.9 since the beginning of December. I keep telling myself I need to workout more and I just can’t find the motivation. This week I’m challenging myself to work out at least 3 times.
-
Another goal for this year was to send more hand-written notes, Sarah designed and printed this adorable stationery for me. I love the bright colors. She’s opening a store soon and I’ll be sure to let you know when that happens.
-
Kari made this cute shirt for BK, I love her unique style of children’s clothing and the quality was impeccable. Check her out on Etsy, she has cute baby stuff too!
-
Have you experienced the joy of a Starbucks k-cup? Oh. my goodness. I think I’ve tried about every k-cup imaginable or so it seems. But this doesn’t even compare. Even Allen, hater of the $6 coffee franchise, agreed that it was way better than the other k-cups.
Happy Friday, friends!

I’m anxious to see how you wear your booties w/ skinnies. I got some Dansko booties (gotta love teacher shoes) and have also only worn them under dress pants. I’ve never thought to put cheese on popcorn….I have been missing out! Will try it this weekend. Happy Friday!
