Recipes

We decided that on Friday night we'll have the people who are coming into town over for a little get together. I can't be in more than one place at a time so we'll bring them to me! Good idea?

So here's my question what should I make and of course what should I wear?

I think we'll do something in the crock pot, maybe meatballs for sandwiches or chili and they can eat whenever. Maybe a taco dip, (personal favorite so that's a must) but I need some ideas. I've been googling for recipes and thought this was a better way to find some! 

Tomorrow is suppose to be 50, I'm all over that! 

We looked at a few open houses today we are in love with this one. If you look at the night time roof deck picture you can see they have lights on railing. How cool is that. It doesn't really have a "view" but heck we're not in Beacon Hill anymore. It's Music Guy's perfect place, the style is pretty modern and that's him, not me, but I'm a fan! The couple who own it finished the renovations and got transferred to Seattle all in the same month. There is a condo for sale right next to were we live, when I say next to us I mean we look at it daily. We loved it in pictures and thought this is the perfect place to buy. We went to the open house last weekend and completely hated it. It has a private roof deck and we thought it was pretty sweet but when we went up there it sucked. Do you see a common theme here outdoor space is a MUST! When we were moving in together we looked at about 50 apartments before we (I) found this one with a deck! We kept telling the broker we have to have outdoor space and he kept showing us ones without and finally I had to drop him. Annoying. 

Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend! I haven't worked on a Monday in weeks, YES a routine!!! 

Red, white and navy???

I had to return something at Target and end up getting these shoes to wear next weekend. I didn't have any "winter" shoes to wear with navy and these have a low heel so they're perfect. I got home to show Music Guy and it occurred to me i'm going to look like the American Flag! Navy dress, white sweater and red shoes. I'm too much even for myself sometimes!

Happy weekend! We had a busy busy day and now Music Guy's sister J and her hubby G are on there way over to watch the Steelers game. 

Enjoy!

Snow?

That is what it looks like it is about to do. But no it's just going to be dark in less than an hour.

I just spent over an hour and a half cleaning one of our two bathrooms. The second one can wait for another day. I went through my drawers and I have three huge makeup cases full of makeup. I am about to go through them, it is all the samples you get with the free gifts. I no joke have about 50 lipsticks, I think I need to down size a tad. My mom is so wonderful she buys her makeup and then gets the gifts and a lot of times she gets two and I get one and she goes through hers and gives me what she doesn't want. Love her for that!

This morning I went to Starbucks and got my first hot venti latte of the season and sipped it as I strolled through Target at 9 this morning. My kind of morning. Though my parents read my blog now and then, I really should have posted I was in mass at 9am. Then I picked Music Guy up at the gym and we went to the store, hit Home Depot, washed the Jeep inside and out and then home to do the same.

Now it's game time and that's it for the rest of the day!

Hope you guys had a great weekend! 4 day week for me next week. Friday morning we're (along with MG's parents) are headed to Madison for the Wisconsin vs. Michigan football game. GO Bucky!!!! More about that later in the week!

Fog Happens

Famous ACK saying.

The weather here in the Northeast is nuts. In Boston it's not as bad is on the Cape, Music Guy's parents lost power this afternoon. So we're not heading down this weekend. I was really looking forward to it, but weather happens.

Though it's pretty cruddy out it didn't put a damper on our dress outting this morning. I am sticking with the dress I orginaly thought, which is another thing off the wedding to-do's. Every one seemed to be a fan of the dress so I know the two who could not be there will be also. Speaking of they will send out sample dresses to bridesmaids who do not live in LA, DC or Boston and can not make it to the store. So i'm very happy my MOH will be able to try on the dress before we place the order!

We headed to Joe's on Newbury after for lunch. I just love that place. (i'll add links when I get to work, blogger doesn't work well with our Mac, or it's user error). A of Fave Couple and I hit H&M after to check out maternity clothes...Yep A is preggers! And get this their baby boy due on my birthday! Also any day now another friend of ours will have their second girl!!! It's the year of weddings and babies, well I guess it's the age we are. Everyone knows about that! We did a bit more shopping and had a wonderful afternoon. Isn't any afternoon wonderful when you buy two new pair of shoes?!

Hope you're having a great weekend! And if you're on the Cape, hang on it's windy out there!

Happy it's the weekend....

I am so happy it's finally Friday!

Anything good planned for the weekend ladies?!

Enjoy!

So much to blog about

WOW where does one start.

I am all over the Anna Nicole Smith death, i sickly can not get enough of it. I left work and spent the majority of my evening flipping back and forth trying to get the most coverage I could. Once 7pm rolled around it was non stop Extra, ET, Access, Insider. Though Extra and ET had the most coverage as they had the final interview. Which was scary to see her knowing she was the mother of a 5 month old. She was definitely on something. Swaying back and forth you could barley hear what she was saying, what a wreck. Most of her life (that i can remember) was a train wreck, all messed up and out there and we (I) could not once look away. Music Guy said it best last night, she'll be bigger in death than she was alive. Well something to that degree.

CNN BREAKING NEWS
-- A Los Angeles judge orders the body of Anna Nicole Smith to be preserved pending a February 20 hearing on the paternity dispute surrounding her five-month-old daughter, lawyer says.

Breaking news mid-blogging.

Wonder if they'll then freeze her like they did Ted Williams to hopefully clone her?

In happier news, it just wouldn't be a week if I didn't blog about English Tea Paperie! As I've blogged about before Chloe had made the invites to my girlfriends engagement party. I got them a few weeks ago and they are perfect! She got 40 of them together in NO time, and they looked like I spent $100's with the ribbon, and as we know C's prices are very reasonable.

I also ordered address labels that C personalized with hydrangeas, they are so lovely!

Big hugs to Chloe for her impeccable work!

WEEKEND...

Not much to report for the upcoming weekend. I'm planning on taking it easy and letting my foot rest. I sure hope I can do it, but something tells me I'll HAVE to run to Target for "something". Lord knows it wouldn't be a weekend if I didn't convince myself I need to shop!
