Happy weekend.
I am counting down the hours until I am able to leave this cold, miserable office and enjoy my weekend! What is everyone doing? Tonight I am going to the minor league baseball game with E and my parents. Super excited about eating some ballpark food. I am working at my AMAZING bridal boutique tomorrow and then I am getting an iPhone on Sunday (to join the rest of the living and breathing)!!!...

Friday Find.
I finally caved and told my best friend that I have a blog. I was going to keep it a secret, but I am bad at those. She suggested I do a “Friday Finds” feature on the blog that would highlight new restaurants, stores, or online deals each week (good idea right? She is pretty awesome, that is why she is my best friend). As my first official Friday Finds post, I am highlighting the free shipping...

Texas Brisket
Yesterday, I wrote about my Texan Meal that I made for my newly Texan man. I wanted to follow up with a recipe to the most amazing beef brisket ever! E has been eating off of it for a week! And get this-he has never eaten brisket in his life. {?!?!?!???!??????}
I had to work all day and this recipe does call for a bit of oven time, so E actually did the labor on it. {credit given where credit...

The Morning After.
I went to a concert last night. I have officially become an old woman- isn’t that what happens in your mid-twenties? It’s such an awkward age. My co-workers with children will look at me wistfully, and I know the thoughts running through their head. They’re thinking about how I can go out all the time during the week for happy hours, dinners, and then party until the wee...

Texas Mac'n'Cheese.
About a week ago I made a Texas meal for my new Texan man. My boyfriend has recently relocated to Texas so I decided to make him homemade mac’n’cheese and beef brisket. I don’t really think the man’n’cheese is particularly Texan, but more Southern and comfort food. I found a recipe on Pintrest that I redid to make my own and the end result was delicious! It took...

Vintage wedding dresses.
As you know I have a wedding obsession. One of my brides this weekend had a 1920s inspired wedding planned which sent me searching the internet for ideas. Here are some photos of vintage dresses I found:
Oh My! These photos took my breath away. I especially love Jenny Peckham’s line. The last photo is breathtaking as well. What do you think? What is your wedding...

Food Truck Festival.
Did everyone have a good weekend? I get some serious Monday blues because I work six days a week. So to cheer myself (and maybe you) up, I’m going to post pictures from the amazing food truck festival I went to this weekend!
Definition: A food truck: mobile kitchen, mobile canteen, or catering truck is a mobile venue that sells food. Some, including ice cream trucks, sell mostly frozen or...

The Mints.
I am an online shopping addict. Have you heard of Shoe Mint? Or Style Mint? There are part of the Mint lines, which are exclusive, online shopping sites in which they email you every month and you have the option to buy an item or “skip” the month. THE CATCH: if you don’t “skip the month” then they will charge your credit card (only after you make your first purchase, in which I have purchased...

Earl Grey Tea and Sea Salt Cookies.
I went to a company picnic yesterday. I’m not going to lie, I think company outings are kind of a drag, but the picnic involved a cookie competition which in this case resulted in me lingering around the cookie table eating several of these babies:
They’re Earl Grey Tea and Sea Salt cookies. I’m a sucker for anything involving sea salt and I drink tea as much as an English Queen. I emailed my...

A Scottish Wedding.
I’ve been holding out on you on one of my biggest obsessions that make me say “Oh My!”. Weddings! Actually anything bridal. I realize I am in my 20’s with a serious boyfriend and lots of girls feel this way {wedding fever}, but my wedding love is borderline insane. For example, in graduate school, when I would take breaks from writing papers, I would browse bridal designers websites to peruse the...

Living With A Boy.
I have an interesting living situation that I assume many 20-something girls with a boyfriend find themselves in- I am constantly living in suitcase! And no, I’m not backpacking through Dallas. I am a gypsy in between my house and my boyfriend’s apartment (Oh My!).
Let me explain. My boyfriend, E (Edward? Ethan? Ellis? We’ll just keep it as E for now, keeps that mystery alive!) has just...

The New Girl Season Finale
I held out on watching the New Girl on Tuesday nights on the Fox network because…and I feel so mean saying this…I think Zooey Deschanel is annoying, but to be put nicely…strange? Quirky? Eek, I’m not a mean girl, I promise! But one night, I was babysitting my niece with nothing good on TV but a New Girl marathon was on so I was trapped.
Side note: my work bestie (we all...

Writing Wednesday-Jeffrey Campbell Litas
I have decided to write. I am at work waiting patiently for my Wednesday snack (isn’t that pretty great? My office has snack on Wednesdays…today is cheese and crackers) and I have an itch to write. I have toyed with the idea of writing a lifestyle blog for a while now, and I have decided to bite the bullet. So, low and behold here is a collection of my daily musings, things-varying from food...
