Do you like chocolate and coffee? Me too! Lets be friends.
Apple and Oat Scones with Cinnamon and Nutmeg
I stepped on the scale today to find out that I have gained a considerable amount of poundage in the last few months. This was really no surprise because I could feel my pants were getting tight but the number confirmed it. So, naturally I consoled myself by making these scones.
Recipe here.

I’ve downloaded a few fitness/workout apps but none are as good as the Nike Training Club. Seriously, it’s free and amazing. Download it if you are interested in finding out how out of shape you are.
Look at these two. So much cuteness.
So far, almost every time there has been a big snow, it has happened on my day off. And so in that case, I love the snow. I love it sitting in the living room drinking coffee, watching the snow fall, but not so much when I have to drive in it especially since my commute is so long. Oh, speaking of long commutes, let me tell you what audio books I have read lately:
The Help, by Kathryn Stockett - amazing, so so good. The movie? meh.
Stories I only tell my friends, by Rob Lowe - good.
Seriously, I’m kidding, by Ellen Degeneres - surprisingly no bueno.
Unbroken, by Laura Hillenbrand - oh my gosh - wonderful!
Extremely Loud and Incredible Close by Jonathan Safran Foer - I know everyone loves this book but the audiobook was terrible. The movie looks good though.
Bossypants, by Tina Fey - yes yes yes.
and the single non-audio book I’ve read….
Love Wins, by Rob Bell - good.
Next up, Back to work, by Bill Clinton.
OK, that concludes the-worst-book-review-ever-where-I-tell-you-nothing-about-why-I-like-or-don’t-like-the-book.
Oh! and for a single movie review…we watched Moneyball this weekend - so good
Wednesday night, as I got undressed for bed, I discovered I had worn my underwear inside out all day long. Telling you that pretty much sums up how my day went. Wednesday sucked and not because of the underwear but that was a nice topper.
However, today is my day off and I have spent it in bed catching up on shows with this guy. Also, there is a snow storm coming. Today is heaven.
Happy Friday everyone.

Pinterest.
Well, looks like I have another thing to distract me from stuff that I should actually be doing. I’m now on Pinterest thanks to Emily. And its wonderfully distracting.
Emily Visited!!!!
Brother and sister reunite!! This past weekend Em came to visit. It was a relaxing weekend, full of coffee drinking and cookie eating. Yes and yes.

Having a snow day is quite possibly one of the greatest feelings in the world.
With the help of Alexis, I have decided to open an Etsy shop! I put a few of my favorite photos up but if there is a photo you’ve seen here that you would like to purchase, I’d be happy to list it as well. What do you think?
