I am inspired

Nom nom nom...

Spring is in the air and everytime I go to the grocery store, boxes of Girl Scout cookies are flashed before my eyes as I scurry in and out trying my hardest to ignore them. I usually plan to stock up for the year, but I always end up eating them before they make it into the freezer. So this year, I fought the urge to buy boxes until last weekend, when all the kiddies were screaming it was our last chance. So you know I had to buy a couple boxes...Damn cookies.

Samoas are going to be the end of me. Maybe it's because nobody's been able to duplicate it quite like the Girl Scouts. To me, they are the perfect cookie. Perfect in texture and flavor. Every cookie morsel is delightfully layered with caramel, coconut and drizzled in chocolate...arghhh, forgetaboutit. I just finished another box..

March on

Currently, I'm utterly obsessed with the following:
Storage, World Market, wallpaper, Miranda Kerr's Prada bag, watercolor, OliveManna, upcoming expenses, organization, the Grateful Dads, buying supplies to put together pretty packages, and McDonald's french fries.

February is for lovers

Time is sneaking its way past us...and it's going by rather quickly!

The Hubs and I went on an emotional roller coaster ride last month. We made some hasty decisions which we needed to slap ourselves out of. It really didn't taste too good. But we're at a better place now, safe and sound. We're taking a long hiatus from house-hunting and decided to save, save, save. We're still moving though...to a slightly bigger and (now) cheaper apartment! Our teeny tiny apartment is really cramping my style, so I'm excited about the new space!

Ahh, Valentine's Day..
I somewhat hate the holiday but I'll take the flowers and ooh! the chocolate too!

There isn't too much fuss over the occassion. But it's a long weekend and a good excuse to go somewhere "special." We went to Laguna Beach to enjoy a fabulous (over-priced/over-rated) brunch at the St. Regis (so much for saving)! Laguna is a special place for us. It's where the Hubs first held my hand. I'll never forget because I, for one, have clammy hands all.year.round. I remember that day was super hot which made my hands not only clammy but warm and sweaty too (not a sexy look). So when he grabbed my hand, I immediately got self-conscious and pulled away. When I told him about my "condition," he took my hand and said he didn't mind and that he "liked it." I love this man.
