Sundays at Tiffany’s by James Patterson
Tom found this book for me while we were in Barnes and Noble’s the other day, and said he’s read other books by the same author and thought I might like this one, I’m about a third of the way through and it’s pretty good so far.
Also: birds singing in the morning, girl time with Jackie, being lazy, pho, noodles, sitting by a fireplace, day trips, cupcakes, Chapel Hill, Franklin Street, interesting or funny fridge magnets, recording memories through photographs, remembering to wear boots when its a rainy day, looking forward to a week off of work, having good conversations, feeling the pieces of your life fall into place, feeling peace where you thought you never would be able to, and being optimistic about the future again.
UNC basketball – They’ve been losing a lot lately but I still enjoy getting into the game.
Root Beer Floats – I know I’ve mentioned them before but they’re SO GOOD.
Snow – I get to see it so rarely that I love it when we get snow here.
Valentine’s Day – I’ve always loved this holiday, whether I’m single or in a relationship, and this year mine was wonderful.
Watching 30 rock, Writing in my Journal, Pretty Stationary, Gorging on Valentine’s Day Chocolates, Watching Rockzilla Play, The New Season of LOST, Making Grilled Shrimp at Home with Butter and Seasonings, and Brownies with Ice Cream.
Enakei artwork. I love the pictures by this artist, I think they’re just so pretty and girly.
Blogging with Wordpress – this was probably the best thing I’ve ever done concerning my blog. It’s sooo much easier to use than blogger, vox, or anything else. I wish I’d done it ages ago.
Discovering Raleigh – I’ve always loved visiting the mall and museums but now I’m learning about all the interesting little places that make Raleigh unique. Places that I would frequent all the time if I lived up here.
Battered and Fried Mushrooms with Tom’s Wing Sauce – my new favorite vegetable. Probably not too healthy but they’re delicious!
Letting go of my seriousness and acting like a kid, root beer floats, my cat greeting me at the door, new beginnings, Samurai Matte chai tea from Teavana, awesome deals at the thrift store, old Eddie Murphy stand up shows, and making a photo album for the first time in a long time.
Thought I’d start another weekly tradition, Things I Love Tuesday.
Too Faced Shadow Insurance – this is my new favorite makeup item, a little bit keeps my eyeshadow from creasing for hours. Thanks to Brandy for recommending it to me!
LOST – I just saw the season premiere it was so good! I can’t wait to watch the rest of the final season.
And last by not least, my father.
Today is my Dad’s birthday.
I love him more than I can say on this little blog.
Thank you for always being there for me.
I love you so much Dad, Happy Birthday!
