Rodeo Road-trip {Part 1}
My roomies and I have decided that we’re going to do a Rodeo Road-trip this year. Meaning, we’re going to go to the San Antonio, Austin, & Houston Rodeo. (PS. Did you know there was a DALLAS rodeo? I just found that out. Guess we’ll have to add that to the list for next year).
Anyway, first stop - San Antonio to see Alan Jackson!

Case of the Mondays
Why can’t I be so organized that I pick out my clothes the night before? Well, if I did that I wouldn’t have the oh so exciting morning I had this morning. I decide that I’m going to wear a skirt today. Okay, simple. Look in my closet and see two dresses that I would normally wear with leggings and think - eh, it’s not going to be that cold today. So, I decide on a skirt...
He did good :)
This was the first valentine’s day back together with my bf in 2 years. I’m normally not a valentine’s person. Actually, I was never a valentine’s person, but he converted me. He did so good this year!
Saturday started with beautiful flowers and a gift!

It’s owned by the...

25 Recipes
At the beginning of January my friend Ashley came to visit me in Austin and we decided to become Julie & Julia!

Can you pass a pink please?
I <3 iced tea. Of course, my favorite is sweet tea but not everyone sells that. At all of the non-sweet tea establishments I order my iced tea and reach for the sugar packets. I’m a pink.
I know, the pink (Sweet ‘N Low) might cause cancer. I just can’t help myself, I can’t bring myself to use any other packet.
Have you ever noticed though that people are a little...

Remember this?
I just saw a Facebook group called “that ‘s’ thing that we all drew in elementary school.” It took me back!! I can remember drawing this ALL the time. What is it anyway? Why would we ALL have drawn this? Bizarre. What about you? Did you draw it?
Dear Girl Scout Cookies,
Especially you
and you
Why do you keep taunting me with your goodness? I know, I know, you only come once a year, but it seems like you stick with me all the way through summer.
Love,

Doppel something...
I’m sure you’ve already seen a lot of Facebook profile picture updates to go along with the Doppel whatever week. (PS. It’s been more than a week!). Some are really good, others are … well, I think my bf said it best — “Why are some folks posting doppelganger pics of celebs they WISH they looked like??? … You KNOW you don’t look like him/her...
Day 18
It’s day 18 of this blog. I’m officially more committed to tumblr than blogspot. It feels good. Here’s a run down of what’s happened in the last 18 days:

Two of my high school friends got married! (Congrats M&F)
Cooking, lots of cooking (stay tuned for a blog on that…)
