Thinking Out Loud #8

January 30, 2014

Hi guys it’s time to join up with Amanda for Thinking Out Loud!

This week has been a bit of a blur to me. Is it bad when you have to look back at your phone to see what pictures you’ve taken to remember what you did this week?? Well, that has been my week so far. Thankfully I did take some pics or I’d be a little lost right about now! 🙂

1. I’ll start by sharing with you guys the most amazing custard I’ve ever had. It came from here, if you are ever in Amelia Island do yourself a favor and go! They had Sea Salt Caramel Custard and it was amazing, so silky and creamy and the flavor was right on.

2. I’ve been an avid tea drinker for several years now and I’m not sure what I did before that. I love finding new great teas, and here are some of my current favorites!

3. I recently spent an evening revisiting an old favorite. I love this movie. Any other August Rush fans out there??

4. I was reading a link that Amanda posted on Sunday and it was all about how to promote your blog post. One thing it mentioned was StumbleUpon. So now I am wondering who all out there uses this? I just signed up for it and am playing around with it.

5. and I just StumbledUpon this A Funny Collection of Misspelled Names Written On Starbucks Cups 🙂

6. Thanks to Davida’s awesome taste in music this song is currently on repeat in my life!

Hi guys it’s Thursday and you know what that means come with me as I join in with Amanda for

1. This week has gone by so fast. I love short weeks, it’s nice to have that variety sometimes. We didn’t get back home from our trip to Greenville, SC until Tuesday evening and have been so busy ever since and here we are almost back around to the weekend. I love it when that happens.

2. I have my eye on this shirt, I can’t decide if I need to get it or not?! What do you think??

3. While we were in Greenville we ate our favorite Mexican restaurant and now I am missing and wanting this so bad! 🙁

Honestly it’s a good thing I don’t have this near by or I would eat it way to often, I just know it.

4. I got about 6 inches cut off my hair last week and it is amazing how much better and lighter it feels! It was probably the longest I have ever had my hair and I enjoyed it but…..it was time for a change. It is still longish but feels way better!

5. I am so addicted to Parenthood. I’ve been watching it on Netflix and I’m on Season 3. I will be so sad when I get caught up to the current season. I love being able to watch an episode or 2 🙂 a night!

6. Here are a few of the things I stocked up on while in Greenville…

Angie’s Popcorn, Salted Caramel and Vanilla Cupcake

and lots of tea, coffee, brown rice pasta and a few other items 🙂

Do you prefer to buy clothes online or in the store? I love love love the convenience of online shopping but with clothes it usually works out best for me to buy them in the store.

What is the last thing you bought online? Nordic Naturals EPA xtra 🙂

Wow, this week is flying by! Can you believe it is Thursday again…and of course that means it’s time to link up with Amanda for….

1. Back in December I mentioned that it just did not look like Christmas cards were going to happen this year. The first year ever that I let time slip by and did not send out cards! It really bothered me because I love sending out Christmas cards. So we decided to send out New Year cards. Yay!

2. I am continuing to work on my yoga everyday. Working on a backbend the last few days. I’ve got a lot of work to do but it’s a start!

3. I was super excited when I saw these babies at the grocery store this week. They haven’t had any at my local grocery store for a couple of months.

4. I am on the 3rd book in the Divergent series and I am trying to decide what I want to read next. So many good choices. It’s kind of alot pressure. Weird right? I just feel that my free time is so limited I want to make the best choice for the time that I do have to read.

5. I’ve got this song stuck in my head! (don’t judge me) 🙂

6. I cannot leave today without telling you guys that last night I discovered the absolute best chip ever made! I don’t eat chips all that often but I do occasionally like them with my guac, usually I reach for Trader Joe’s Sweet Potato Chips, but I picked up this bag of The Better Chip at Whole Foods the other day and they are so good. A whole different level of good! My life is changed!

Hi guys, It’s Thursday my favorite blogging day thanks to Amanda and her Thinking Out Loud randomness!

Let’s get started…..

1. First off I’m proud of following through with one of my New Year goals. I took a yoga class for the first time. I have done yoga off and on a home for years and have always been curious about taking a class but it seems I always talk myself out of it. I’ve only ever taken one other exercise class in my life I think basically because I find them a little intimidating at first and I second guess myself. So, in the end I choose to work out by myself at the gym or at home. Taking the leap to go to a class felt good and I’m glad I did. The instructor and everyone in the class was very welcoming. So, yay for new things!

2. I’m also making an effort to focus a little more on myself. Finding ways to relax and regroup. Taking time to start each day with a devotional and ending (some) days with a nice relaxing bath! I’m also been taking a moment each night to reflect on my day and to write something a quick note about something good that happened that day. Check out Amanda’s Memory Chest Project if you haven’t already.

3. Drinking my coffee and tea out of this cute little mug can help brighten even the brightest of days!

4. Another thing that is making me happy this week is this family photo. Finally a pic where we are all looking at the camera and smiling. A miracle people truly a miracle. 🙂

5. I’ve been thinking back to what my favorite purchases of 2013 were and hands down that goes to my Vitamix and Breville Juicer. You know how you have some appliances that just take up space on your counter or cabinets, you bring them out one or two times a year maybe. ugh! That is not the case with my Vitamix and Juicer. I use them both daily. Almost every morning with a fresh juice and I usually make a green smoothie every afternoon and recently I have been using the Vitamix to help make soup. Much love to both of these appliances!

My juice yesterday morning…

I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday!
