i can’t tell you how many times i’ve come across things that i just can’t live without and find myself wanting to shout how great they are from the rooftop. starting this month i’ve decided to introduce a series of what i’m into ‘right this minute’ – because it’s fun, oh so girly, and honestly it just feels right to share the goods with you!
Month: January 2015
baby it’s cold outside
my easy-going (and beautifully pregnant) friend nicole is into colorful prints and girly frills which is why knowing that she’s going to have a little girl just makes sense. she’ll make such a great mommy! this past weekend, to celebrate this new beginning a couple other girlfriends and i hosted a shower in her honor.
here are some pictures. enjoy!
spontaneous weekend
i know i can’t be so carefree and spontaneous all of the time but letting go of the reins every now and then certainly does have its advantages!

holiday detox: 4 for 30
it’s time to get serious! i’ve been eating like crap for far too long and the last month of indulgent, rich holiday goodies didn’t help my situation. in fact since I ran the marathon last October i’ve been eating without abandon – ravishing my cupboards at night and saying ‘yes’ to office treats and afternoon latte breaks. sure all those sugary drinks, pizza slices and oreos were tasty but after the high wears off i’m left feeling bloated and tired. sexy. not!!!!
simplicity is bliss – i love this 4 for 30 below:
let’s make 2015 the best year yet : printable included
talk about disappointing! what we found was that we failed. yep, failed. on the whole we really sucked it up. and actually, after reading each of the colossal goals I wanted to get, not one but, three pieces of fattening, indulgent cheesecake just to drown my vague ‘eat better’ goal sorrows. honestly, it’s not that we didn’t meet some of the goals there were just too many with no clear action items or steps to measure our progress. I really envisioned it differently. I pictured us giving ourselves a big ‘ole pat on the back for all that we had accomplished. it’s clear i was delusional. i mean, who creates two pages of goals and never looks back at them?!? duh!
not this year. nope this year we are doing what any sane person would do when they realize they set lofty goals met with only marginal fulfillment or none at all – we lowered our standards. we penned a new list, limited it to one page, and then devoured our cheesecake. this year we’ll keep our goals front and center and revisit them periodically and maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to check most off by the end of 2015 making this the.best.year.yet!!
