5 Things I'm Loving

I am having an awful week. Plain and simple. Not only do I have to miss the Iron Bowl because for some reason, it's necessary to be at work until 5:30 on Friday, but I am not having Thanksgiving with my family and I miss them.

So here are a few things I'm loving at the moment....

5. My niche in the bedroom. Black and white photos of me and my parents at the wedding. Check. Cool mirror display. Check. Fake flowers. Check. (Please ignore the lint roller which I know you can see. I'm sorry. I suck as a photographer.)

4. Bottle of red wine. My best friend after this week.

3. Impromptu photo shoot with the dog. Oh yes, I know she looks better than me.

2. My super new fun purple dress. I love the ruffles. My Thanksgiving day dress.

1. My OPI dark red. Feels so wintery. I love it.

So while I'm stuck making the deviled eggs for the meal (let's face it, they are the best ever), I'm thinking of all these things to make me smile.

Texas-size Food

Yesterday I was riding home, to let the dog out and Bennett calls. He's in Texas this week, and he says he has the biggest plate of nachos that he's ever seen right in front of him for lunch. BBQ nachos at that. So, then I get this....

Obviously not kidding about the gigantic-ness of this plate of nachos. Needless to say since I was eating hot dogs and chips, this made me incredibly jealous. I mean, perfect nachos. Look at the BBQ and cheese just falling off the plate....oh, I'm hungry!

And then he calls to tell me that he got pulled over for talking on the phone in a school zone. His hotel is located in a school zone and the police got him as soon as he pulled out of the parking lot. Told him he could talk on his phone on the road all day long as long as he isn't in a school zone.

Funny Texas.

Just Because you Change your Last Name...

How great is this?!! Apparently the groom wanted a houndstooth cake, because, well he's an Alabama fan. But the bride usually pays for the cake, and she got the last laugh on this one!

I love it!!
