Life as of Lately

This is what my life has looked like as of lately. Mostly animals and food as per usual.

This week has been a bit of an emotional drain. I've been lonely. Yesterday I had a meltdown and cried while eating cold french fries in my car in the parking garage. Last weekend I was close to a panic attack driving in circles on the highway trying to get to a couple different thrift stores alone because my mom was out of town and the few friends I have were busy. I may be directionally challenged, but I'm determined and I did find them...eventually. I've been thinking a lot about life and what I want mine to be like. I have the basic outline, but actually getting to the goal is a terrifying mystery. I may also be hormonal so I'm not taking this funk too seriously. Mostly because I also had to fight tears when I heard the opening of My Heart Will Go On last night.

The highlights:

  • I found a fantastic recipe for salted caramel butter cream frosting.
  • I found out that my Memere is coming for a surprise visit from South Carolina.
  • I've been eating massive amounts of leftover chocolate from Canada.
  • The last seasons of Glee and Private Practice are up on Netflix so I can catch up to the current seasons.
  • Christopher is wonderful. I really lucked out in the guy department.  
  • My little red convertible Volkswagen is fixed and road ready!

I hope this week has lots of good highlights for all of you!

Polka Dots & Whoopie Pies - What I Wore

Word flew around the office that there was a new bakery in town that had a salted caramel whoopie pies. My mom and I went on a bit of a scavenger hunt for them since we didn't know the name of the shop and when we finally found it...we bought three. I'm told that whoopie pies are a New England only thing and I would just like to say, if you don't live in New England you are missing out!


I have been in a polka dot mood. On a more relaxed day at the office I tried out my new wrap dress with a jean jacket and leggings. The dress is so short, I'm not sure how anyone could possibly wear it any other way...
